More “First Look” 5.8 UD3 and 8.3.11 Webinars Added

Word is travelling fast. About the better product experience NextGen Healthcare clients can expect when they upgrade to EHR/PM 5.8 UD3 and KBM 8.3.11 – scheduled for general release Q4 this year.

Due to overwhelming demand, we’ve added additional complimentary training sessions to our Upgrade Management Series: First Look at EHR/PM 5.8 UD3 and KBM 8.3.11. All September “First Look” webinars are full. So is the October 5 webinar. Registration is open for October 12 and 26. Complimentary “First Look” webinar registration also is open for November 16 and 30; December 14 and 28.

Expect a better product experience when you upgrade to our latest core application and clinical content versions. Much better. Easier upgrade. Better workflows. Fewer clicks and scrolls. Tighter integration. Faster cash flow. Everything you need to get better at everything you do, which is the mandate of value-based medicine.

Better practice management

Practice management (PM), care guidelines are integrated into scheduling; no more jumping back and forth to the EHR to view a patient’s impending or overdue clinical care items. Put patient groups on recall from a single report and better identify gaps in care based on clinical guidelines.

Customize, print, electronically sign and store patient correspondence in a new PM Enhanced Form Builder. NextGen Care in 5.8 UD3 now lets you import a patient cohort from an Excel® spreadsheet and manage that cohort on the fly with alerts and education. Improve your patients’ experience with enrollment automation in NextGen Patient Portal.

Better revenue cycle management

  • The new “Consolidated Services Claim” feature in PM enables Federally Qualified Health Centers (FQHCs) to create a single claim consolidating charges from all same-day patient encounters
  • Flexible, secure, integrated patient credit card processing; use of token ID
  • Worklog Manager has improved usability across practices within the enterprise
  • Better financial and collection message flexibility on patient statements
  • Improved eligibility workflows with a new interface for Real-time Transaction Server
  • Claims enhancements and new features for Electronic Remittance Advice (ERA)
  • Streamlined appointment check-in with optical character recognition of driver license/ins card

Better clinical workflow and patient-centered care

Enhancements to NextGen KBM 8.3.11 include a game-changing new Graphical Exam Tool for dermatology; a redesigned, single template for pediatric or primary care well child visits; and new, improved, integration enhancements for specialties, including OB/GYN, Ophthalmology, Orthopedics, Cardiology, Behavioral Health, Ambulatory Surgery Centers, CHCs, and Dental; plus, PQRS reporting.

We rewrote MyPlan so you can complete more tasks (such as AOE management and specimen collection) without leaving the template. You’ll remove even more clicks from your workflow with SNOMED-codified configurable histories and new time-saving functions for chronic care encounters. And shift administrative tasks out of patients’ appointment time with new “pre-visit planning” functionality.
