Read MoreHide Full Article
NextGen Healthcare, Inc. recently divulged the release of its NextGen Behavioral Health Suite, which builds upon the company’s superior NextGen Enterprise electronic health record (EHR) and practice management system. Interestingly, the newly announced suite is the industry’s first platform to combine comprehensive physical, behavioral health, human services, and oral health in one software solution.
It is worth mentioning that the NextGen Behavioral Health solution includes advanced abilities, features and specialized content like packet navigation, content for residential treatment programs, electronic medication administration record (eMAR) and bed board solutions.
This announcement is likely to bolster the demand for NextGen solutions further.

Per management, the company remains focused on accelerating its solutions to support integrated whole-person health and lower care disparities. Integrating multi-specialty care information from across community health services into one unified platform marks a significant milestone for NextGen.
Market Prospects
Per a report by Grand View Research, the global EHR market is anticipated to reach $35.1 billion by 2028, witnessing a CAGR of 3.7% during the forecast period (2016-2028). Hence, this announcement comes at an opportune time for NextGen.

The NextGen Enterprise EHR, NextGen Enterprise Practice Management (PM) and NextGen Patient Experience Platform are among the solutions adopted by Lake County Tribal Health to enhance patient outcomes and optimize provider workflow.
