Gastro-Specific Workflows Boost Efficiency, Promote an Elevated Patient Experience
NextGen Healthcare, a leading provider of innovative healthcare technology, today unveiled a NextGen® Gastro Suite that brings gastro-specific workflows to the NextGen® Enterprise EHR (electronic health record) to streamline repetitive tasks, deliver faster insights, and support an enhanced patient experience. This is especially meaningful given that between 60 and 70 million Americans are affected by some form of gastrointestinal disease, according to the American Gastroenterological Association (AGA).
The suite is easily integrated with other solutions from NextGen Healthcare, enabling hands-free mobile documentation with NextGen® Ambient Assist, enhanced patient engagement with the NextGen® Closed Loop™ Patient and Practice Experience, billing automation, cloud hosting, and advanced interoperability.
“We are excited about what the NextGen Gastro Suite represents for the future of care delivery and operational optimization in gastroenterology,” said Vincent S. Vitali, chief information officer at Borland Groover Clinic, a NextGen Healthcare client and one of Florida’s leading gastroenterology providers. “A single, integrated solution across clinics and ASCs would be a game-changer for practices like ours across the US.”
“By reducing clicks and streamlining workflows, we’re empowering gastroenterologists to focus on what truly matters—the patients in front of them,” said Srinivas (Sri) Velamoor, president and chief operating officer, NextGen Healthcare. “The NextGen Gastro Suite is another milestone on our journey towards better healthcare outcomes for all – including critical specialty practices throughout the country.”
The NextGen Gastro Suite boosts efficiency by providing keyboard shortcuts for faster text entry and quick orders to streamline the process of ordering common tests, medications, procedures or tasks. It also offers a configurable longitudinal view of each patient’s history, presenting details like prescriptions and past procedures in an easy-to-interpret format accessible with just one click.
Other features include:
- Provider “smart lists” for patient complaints, orders, and diagnoses, streamlining documentation
- Configurable in-office testing and procedures, providing extensive flexibility
- Streamlined precertification, expediting insurance approvals
- Intelligent tasking to automate prompting for future visits, exams and procedures like colonoscopies, ensuring patients don't fall through the cracks
