NextGen Population Health to be unveiled at 2013 HIMSS Annual Conference and Exhibition

NextGen Healthcare Information Systems, LLC., a wholly owned subsidiary of Quality Systems, Inc. (NASDAQ: QSII) and a leading provider of healthcare information systems and connectivity solutions, today announced the unveiling of its new population health management solution, NextGen^® Population Health (PH), to help providers meet Patient Centered Medical Home (PCMH) and Accountable Care Organization (ACO) goals, including improving quality, collaborative care, patient engagement and measurement for better health outcomes. This new solution, along with a number of other recently launched products and services, will be demonstrated during the 2013 HIMSS Annual Conference and Exhibition March 3 - 7, at the Ernest N. Morial Convention Center in New Orleans.

NextGen^® PH is a protocol-based communication solution that tightly integrates with the NextGen^® Ambulatory EHR product platform to aid physicians in enhancing care by ensuring better patient compliance with treatment plans. NextGen PH enables physicians to automatically reach out to patients to schedule recommended care plans with automated protocol-based reminders. They can also engage patients and facilitate communications more efficiently using email, text messages, NextGen^® Patient Portal and Interactive Voice Reminders. Providers can also track efforts, analyze performance and view customizable ROI reports and Dashboards. Revenue associated with hands-on patient communication and care is tracked, captured and processed through an integrated workflow enabled by NextGen^® Practice Management to maximize pay-for-performance reimbursement.

The NextGen Healthcare portfolio of products and services provides the necessary tools, systems, infrastructure and training needed to help practices, hospitals, community health centers and health systems evolve through Meaningful Use (MU) to PCMH and ACO delivery models easily, quickly and intelligently. Many additional solutions and system enhancements will be demonstrated at the company's HIMSS13 booth, #5313, including NextGen Ambulatory^® EHR 8 Series, NextGen^® Health Information Exchange (HIE), NextGen^® Dashboard, NextGen Patient Portal, and NextGen Hospital Solutions.

Additionally, demonstrations of NextGen Healthcare's interoperable and connectivity solutions will be displayed at this year's HIMSS Interoperability Showcase™ from March 4 - 6.
