Large Michigan Federally Qualified Health
Center Cites Customizable Packaged Solutions and
Comprehensive Offering as Key to Improving Efficiencies
NextGen Healthcare, Inc. (Nasdaq: NXGN), a leading provider of
innovative, cloud-based healthcare technology solutions, today
announced NextGen Enterprise® has been selected as the electronic
health record (EHR) and practice management (PM) solution of choice
by Federally Qualified Health Center (FQHC) Cherry Health.
Headquartered in Grand Rapids with 20 locations throughout western
Michigan, Cherry Health chose NextGen Healthcare for its integrated
and versatile platform. With a network of 80+ providers and over
800 healthcare professionals working in its facilities, the
organization serves more than 65,000 patients annually. Cherry
Health has adopted the full suite of NextGen Healthcare solutions,
including the latest version of NextGen® Enterprise, as well as
NextGen® Financial Suite, NextGen Virtual Visits™, NextGen Mobile,
NextGen® Patient Experience Platform, NextGen® Population Health
and NextGen® EDR – all hosted through NextGen® Managed Cloud
Services powered by Amazon Web Services.
Cherry Health undertook a comprehensive evaluation process and
cited functionality, versatility and an integrated platform as
must-haves in selecting its preferred technology partner. NextGen
Healthcare delivers these features, as well as many tools that
streamline processes for improved patient-provider interaction.
NextGen Enterprise will help the FQHC improve its provider
experience, with the goal of reducing provider burnout – a common
problem plaguing FQHCs. A recent survey by The Physicians
Foundation found that 60% of physicians feel burned out and 33%
feel hopeless.
“Staff shortages, compliance concerns and rapidly growing
patient demand are placing unprecedented strains on healthcare
professionals,” said Srinivas (Sri) Velamoor, chief growth and
strategy officer at NextGen Healthcare. “FQHCs like Cherry Health,
which offer health services that support whole-person care, benefit
from an integrated platform that simplifies workflows, enhances
outcomes and improves the patient-provider experience.”
“NextGen Healthcare provides the seamless platform our
organization needs,” said Glenda Williams, chief information
officer for Cherry Health. “The integrated healthcare records and
highly configurable templates integrated with tools such as virtual
visits that improve the client experience are just a few reasons
NextGen Healthcare was our chosen technology partner.”
Cherry Health team members will join thousands of other
healthcare professionals at the 25th annual NextGen Healthcare User
Group Meeting taking place Nov. 6-9 in Nashville. Register
