NextGen Healthcare to Automate Inpatient and Outpatient Settings with Comprehensive Technology Platform

Memorial Medical Center of Neillsville, Wis. will leverage NextGen solutions as it transforms its multi-disciplinary facility into a single digital organization

HORSHAM, Pa. (February 16, 2011) – As more hospitals and medical practices partner to foster accountable care, adoption of technologies that exchange health information across inpatient and ambulatory settings is growing quickly. NextGen Healthcare Information Systems, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of Quality Systems, Inc. (NASDAQ: QSII) and leading provider of healthcare information systems and connectivity solutions, today announced that Memorial Medical Center, Neillsville, Wis., is the latest in a growing number of healthcare organizations to select NextGen® Inpatient Clinicals, NextGen® Inpatient Financials and NextGen® Ambulatory EHR to create a seamless technology platform across its continuum of care.

After the Meaningful Use criteria were announced, Memorial Medical Center sought a certified inpatient clinical offering for its healthcare facility as well as a proven ambulatory solution to automate medical records in its three clinics.

“Once our providers had a chance to see the NextGen Ambulatory EHR in action, they were most impressed with the product’s flexibility and specialty content,” said Travis Obrycki, Information Systems Manager for Memorial Medical Center. “From there, we knew it would be beneficial to replace our existing inpatient financial system and find a single vendor partner with the breadth of clinical and financial solutions needed to support a completely digital enterprise. NextGen Healthcare was that partner.”

In addition to actively pursuing Meaningful Use incentives, Memorial Medical Center expects to leverage NextGen® technology to support a personal health record (PHR) for its patients. The facility also has a goal of sharing patient data with other well-respected facilities in its area. On the financial side, Memorial Medical Center aims to streamline its entire billing and coding process by eliminating manual data entry.

“NextGen Healthcare’s platform will enable our providers to have more accessible patient data, whether we’re seeing patients in the clinic or hospital,” said Dr. Ken Weimer, a practicing pediatrician who was involved in the technology selection process. “Ease-of-use was also a deciding factor from a clinical standpoint, as our staff has varying degrees of experience with technology.”

“Ensuring comprehensive, consistent and accurate patient care across the continuum is now more critical than ever, especially in light of emerging efforts like Meaningful Use, accountable care and patient-centered medical home,” said Scott Decker, president of NextGen Healthcare. “We have developed a complete platform that empowers clients to advance healthcare today while also preparing them meet the challenges of tomorrow.”

NextGen Healthcare will demonstrate the breadth of its ambulatory and inpatient solutions at the 2011 HIMSS Conference and Exhibition in booth #2163.

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.
