Initial reaction, education, and client support
for MACRA Final Rule outlined
NextGen Healthcare Information Systems, LLC, a wholly owned
subsidiary of Quality Systems, Inc., (NASDAQ: QSII) today kicked
off its annual User Group Meeting (NextGen™ ONE UGM) at the
Mandalay Bay Resort in Las Vegas, NV.
This year there will be a focus on educating clients on the
Medicare Access and CHIP Reauthorization Act (MACRA) and its final
rule released October 14, 2016, as well as CMS’ Quality Payment
Program (QPP). The four-day conference will include numerous
educational sessions, deeper dives into MACRA, and how to succeed
in making the transition to value-based care.
While at UGM, clients can take a value-based care survey that
will help them determine their practices’ readiness for that
transition. They can also meet one-on-one with NextGen Healthcare
consultants whose goal is to help clients create a customized plan
to succeed under new reimbursement guidelines. NextGen ONE UGM 2016
also offers hundreds of educational sessions for clients and
demonstrations of new and existing technology solutions. Clients
can visit a hands-on Learning Lab, staffed with technology
professionals, where they can use the latest solutions from NextGen
Healthcare and get practical tips to optimize their experience and
results.
To launch the conference, NextGen Healthcare's President and
Chief Executive Officer, Rusty Frantz, will address attendees in a
general session that will discuss how the company is partnering
with clients to help them succeed. He will also discuss how the
company continues to invest in new services and solutions to
deliver value and an exceptional client experience.
"As the president and CEO of NextGen Healthcare, my highest
priority is to evaluate the experience we offer our clients, where
our greatest strengths lie, and opportunities where we can provide
additional value," said Frantz. "NextGen ONE UGM provides a great
opportunity to present our strategic vision for the company and the
services and solutions clients need to move from fee-for-service to
fee-for-value successfully. The MACRA law is complex and we are
here to help our clients understand it and ease their
transition."
Keynote speaker Mel Robbins, best-selling author, serial
entrepreneur, and award-winning CNN analyst, joins an impressive
list of presenters covering a wide variety of industry topics,
including interoperability, patient engagement, usability and
physician satisfaction; managed cloud services; cost containment
and risk sharing; population health, regulatory compliance, and
revenue-cycle management.
Clients will also get a chance to see the company’s new NextGen®
Ambulatory EHR and NextGen® Practice Management version 5.8 UD3,
released October 28, 2016. This new version adds functionality to
improve usability and reduce clicks in common office workflows.
Providers and clinicians can spend more time focused on patients
and less time on the computer. It includes features that make
patient information available with zero clicks. Its
interoperability provides a more longitudinal and complete view of
the patient to enable better care.
“I’m very excited about the GR of 5.8 UD3,” said Frantz. “It’s
our best quality release ever with an enhanced user experience and
will be a pathway to help clients successfully manage the CMS
Quality Payment Program.”

SAFE HARBOR PROVISIONS FOR FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
This news release may contain forward-looking statements within
the meaning of the federal securities laws, including but not
limited to, statements regarding future events, developments in the
healthcare sector and regulatory framework, the Company's future
performance, as well as management's expectations, beliefs,
intentions, plans, estimates or projections relating to the future
(including, without limitation, statements concerning revenue, net
income, and earnings per share). Risks and uncertainties exist that
may cause the results to differ materially from those set forth in
these forward-looking statements. Factors that could cause the
anticipated results to differ from those described in the
forward-looking statements and additional risks and uncertainties
are set forth in Part I, Item A of our most recent Annual Report on
Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2016 and subsequently
filed Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q, including but not limited to:
the volume and timing of systems sales and installations; length of
sales cycles and the installation process; the possibility that
products will not achieve or sustain market acceptance; seasonal
patterns of sales and customer buying behavior; impact of incentive
payments under The American Recovery and Reinvestment Act on sales
and the ability of the Company to meet continued certification
requirements; the development by service introductions, development
and product upgrade releases; undetected errors or bugs in
software; product liability; changing economic, political or
regulatory influences in the health-care industry; changes in
product-pricing policies; availability of third-party products and
components; competitive pressures including product offerings,
pricing and promotional activities; the Company's ability or
inability to attract and retain qualified personnel; possible
regulation of the Company's software by the U.S. Food and Drug
Administration; changes of accounting estimates and assumptions
used to prepare the prior periods' financial statements;
disruptions caused by acquisitions of companies, products, or
technologies; and general economic conditions. A significant
portion of the Company's quarterly sales of software product
licenses and computer hardware is concluded in the last month of a
fiscal quarter, generally with a concentration of such revenues
earned in the final ten business days of that month. Due to these
and other factors, the Company's revenues and operating results are
very difficult to forecast. A major portion of the Company's costs
and expenses, such as personnel and facilities, are of a fixed
nature and, accordingly, a shortfall or decline in quarterly and/or
annual revenues typically results in lower profitability or losses.
As a result, comparison of the Company's period-to-period financial
performance is not necessarily meaningful and should not be relied
upon as an indicator of future performance. These forward-looking
statements speak only as of the date hereof. The Company undertakes
no obligation to publicly update any forward-looking statements,
whether as a result of new information, future events or
otherwise.
