NextGen Healthcare Strengthens Leadership Position in Health Center Market with Expanded Adoption of Electronic Health Records

Northeast Valley Health Corporation and Community Health Center Network select NextGen® technology, bringing total health center clients nationwide to more than 365

HORSHAM, Pa. (June 28, 2011) – NextGen Healthcare Information Systems, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of Quality Systems, Inc. (NASDAQ: QSII) and a leading provider of healthcare information systems and connectivity solutions, today announced that Northeast Valley Health Corporation (NEVHC) and Community Health Center Network (CHCN) have selected NextGen® technology to support their Meaningful Use and business growth initiatives. NextGen Healthcare added 32 community health centers (CHCs) and health center controlled networks (HCCNs) to its growing client roster during the final quarter of fiscal year 2011, reaching a total of more than 365 health centers nationwide.

With 25 sites across California’s San Fernando and Santa Clarita Valleys, NEVHC is one of the nation’s largest non-profit CHCs. It will deploy NextGen® Practice Management to increase revenue through enhanced charge capture capabilities, elimination of document storage fees, and improved operational efficiency. NextGen® Ambulatory EHR will integrate with NEVHC’s clinical, scheduling, pharmacy and dental services to create a comprehensive medical management platform and support Meaningful Use efforts. NEVHC also purchased NextGen® Patient Portal to enable electronic communication between patients and providers, an expected criterion for Stage 2 Meaningful Use.

“We believe the innovative use of technology will lead to improved population health, enhanced service and long-term business growth,” said Kimberly Wyard, CEO of NEVHC. “In addition to demonstrating a breadth of product functionality, we were also impressed with NextGen Healthcare’s proven track record of enhancing clinical quality within large enterprises in our local market as well as across the country.”

A health center controlled network headquartered in Alameda County, Calif., CHCN also selected NextGen Ambulatory EHR to help its eight member health centers achieve Meaningful Use. The award-winning product offers a breadth of features to support this mission, including ePrescribing, auto-completion of Uniform Data System (UDS) reports, a single database from which to track and report required quality metrics and pre-built clinical templates for more than 26 specialty physicians.

“We were searching for a ‘Meaningful Use-ready’ solution to provide our affiliated clinics with strong, out-of-the-box functionality and the ability to customize as needed,” said Ralph Silber, MPH, CEO of CHCN.

“NextGen Healthcare now serves more than 265 federally qualified health centers and 100 other tribal and rural health centers nationwide, with 70 clients in California alone,” said Scott Decker, president of NextGen Healthcare. “NextGen’s customizable technology and services address a host of clinical and business challenges for health centers that are made more complicated by healthcare reform. Our commitment to retaining a full-time director for this market, coupled with ongoing product development and specialty education, has further solidified NextGen Healthcare as a leader in the health center community.”

This news release may contain forward-looking statements within the meaning of the federal securities laws. Statements regarding future events, developments, 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 and net income), are forward-looking statements within the meaning of these laws and involve a number of risks and uncertainties. Management believes that these forward-looking statements are reasonable and are based on reasonable assumptions and forecasts, however, undue reliance should not be placed on such statements that speak only as of the date hereof. Moreover, these forward-looking statements are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties, some of which are outlined below. As a result, actual results may vary materially from those anticipated by the forward-looking statements. Among the important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those indicated by such forward-looking statements are: volume and timing of systems sales and installations; length of sales cycles and installation process; the possibility that the products will not achieve market acceptance; seasonal patterns of sales and customer buying behavior; the development by competitors of new or superior technologies; the timing, cost and success or failure of new product and 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; uncertainties concerning threatened, pending and new litigation against the Company including related professional services fees; uncertainties concerning the amount and timing of professional fees incurred by the Company generally; changes of accounting estimates and assumptions used to prepare the prior periods’ financial statements; general economic conditions; and the risk factors detailed from time to time in Quality Systems’ periodic reports and registration statements filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. A significant portion of the Company’s quarterly sales of software product licenses and computer hardware is concluded in the last month of the 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. The Company undertakes no obligation to publicly update any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.
