NextGen Healthcare Powers 1 Million Telehealth Visits in 2020

Adoption of NextGen Virtual Visits™ Accelerated by COVID-19 Pandemic

ATLANTA--(BUSINESS WIRE)--NextGen Healthcare, Inc. (Nasdaq: NXGN), a leading provider of ambulatory-focused technology solutions, today announced it has achieved a significant milestone by enabling more than 1 million patient visits through its telehealth solution in 2020. NextGen Virtual Visits™ is a key component of the NextGen® Patient Experience Platform which provides capabilities such as online scheduling, bill payment, and secure patient-provider messaging. The solution seamlessly integrates with NextGen® Enterprise EHR, the company’s flagship ambulatory care platform. During this rapid growth, NextGen Virtual Visits™ received high patient satisfaction scores of 9.1 out of 10. Over this same period, NextGen® Office for provider-owned small healthcare practices supported over half a million virtual visits through its cloud-based solution.

NextGen Virtual Visits™ became a critical means of care continuity for thousands of ambulatory providers across the U.S. during the COVID-19 pandemic. Demand for the popular care delivery alternative continues to grow. According to a forecast from Chilmark research, 15-25 percent of all U.S. primary care visits will be conducted virtually by 2025.

Lone Star Circle of Care (LSCC), a federally qualified health center (FQHC) in Texas, utilizes the full NextGen® Patient Experience Platform, including NextGen® PxP Portal, NextGen Virtual Visits™, NextGen® Patient Self-Scheduling and NextGen® Pay.
