What You Should Know: 

– Advanced Heart Group (AHG), a leading cardiology practice serving Chicago’s southern suburbs for over 23 years, has selected NextGen Healthcare as its new technology partner. 

– The strategic partnership signifies NextGen’s dedication to supporting cardiology practices nationwide. It comes at a critical time, as heart disease continues to be a major health concern in the United States.

Addressing the Rise of Cardiovascular Disease

  • Nearly 50% of adults in the US currently have some form of cardiovascular disease.
  • This number is expected to rise to 61% by 2050.

To address these growing needs, AHG has chosen NextGen’s comprehensive suite of solutions, including:

  • NextGen® Enterprise EHR (electronic health record): Streamlines patient record management and improves care coordination.
  • NextGen® Enterprise PM (practice management): Enhances practice operations and billing efficiency.
  • NextGen® PXP Portal: Empowers patients with secure access to:
    • Lab results
    • Visit summaries
    • Medication refill requests
    • Two-way communication with providers

NextGen Ambient Assist: Reducing Documentation Burden

NextGen Ambient Assist, an AI-powered technology, will significantly reduce documentation burdens for AHG providers. This innovative solution can save doctors up to 2 hours of documentation time per day, allowing them to dedicate more time to patient interaction and care.
“Advanced Heart Group’s partnership with Heart & Vascular Partners is one recent example of the organization’s future-focused approach to care delivery,” said David Sides, CEO, NextGen Healthcare. “Cardiology care is a critical area within healthcare, and we are firmly committed to supporting this segment with advanced technology. AHG demonstrates the importance of being nimble and welcoming change while staying rooted to organizational mission and values.”
