NextGen Healthcare Partners with Verato to Enhance Patient Insights

Patient-Matching Technology within NextGen Health Data Hub Platform Offers Providers a More Complete Picture of Patient Health

ATLANTA--(BUSINESS WIRE)--NextGen Healthcare, Inc. (Nasdaq: NXGN), a leading provider of cloud-based ambulatory-focused technology solutions, today announced that it has partnered with Verato to incorporate patient matching into the NextGen® Health Data Hub (HDH) platform.

Healthcare providers need a full picture of a patient’s medical history to make the best possible clinical decisions, and consumers increasingly expect their care teams to have this information. This is where patient-matching technology comes into play. The necessary data can reside in any number of disparate EHR systems—ambulatory, inpatient or post-acute care. NextGen Health Data Hub provides healthcare providers with the clinical content management, connectivity, data access, security and access permission features to get the fullest view of a patient’s health. With Verato Universal MPI^® integration, Health Data Hub will provide advanced identity management to address the complexities of patient matching.

“Our collaboration with Verato to incorporate world-class identity management into the NextGen Health Data Hub ecosystem reflects our mutual commitment to delivering better clinical and financial outcomes for patients and providers,” said Srinivas (Sri) Velamoor, chief growth and strategy officer for NextGen Healthcare. “More effective patient matching also leads to better experiences for consumers because their providers have a greater understanding of their entire healthcare journey.”

With these solutions, providers and administrators have simple access to aggregated, actionable data to better treat patients using a complete longitudinal medical record, manage transitions of care, coordinate care plans and manage chronic conditions.

“Verato is proud to partner with NextGen Healthcare to put our market-leading identity-resolution platform in the hands of its growing network of providers and Health Information Exchange (HIE) organizations,” said Joaquim Neto, chief product officer at Verato. “Together, we will help ensure that providers have the information they need to achieve a holistic view of patients to timely, effective and safer care. More healthcare organizations and consumers can realize the promise of digital health and virtual care through real-time, complete and trusted patient data.”
