Alleviate technology headaches
with managed cloud hosting services
Medical practices today are under intense pressure to operate efficiently and optimize technology. NextGen® Managed Cloud Services can help your practice meet today’s health IT challenges and reduce costs.
With cloud-based hosting, IT resources are retrieved through web-based tools and applications, as opposed to a direct connection to a server. Your practice can save money by using NextGen Managed Cloud Services instead of purchasing and maintaining systems and equipment needed for self-hosting EHR and practice management software.
NextGen Healthcare provides cloud hosting in collaboration with Amazon Web Services, a platform built to meet demands of the most security-sensitive organizations.

DISCOVER THE FEATURES OF NEXTGEN MANAGED CLOUD SERVICES
Cloud-based software hosting increases operational efficiency.
Access to infrastructure and resources
With NextGen Managed Cloud Services, your practice gets access to a data center, servers, data backups, storage, as well as a specified level of disaster recovery service. You also get access to multiple data bases—production, report, test, demo, and development databases—as well as Microsoft licenses covering the operating system, remote desktop services, and server query language (SQL).
Better security
Hosting applications on the cloud offers a higher level of security compared to maintaining applications in a self-hosted environment. NextGen Healthcare uses two key approaches to make data secure as possible: (1) third-party certification with the Health Information Trust Alliance (HITRUST) and (2) collaboration with Amazon Web Services
Built-in features that decrease risk
Service level agreements warrant availability and response time of cloud hosting services, as well as disaster recovery capabilities. Software tools watch for potential problems, such as exceeding processing or memory storage limits, so repairs can be performed before problems occur.
Easier medication information and formulary updates
Description: Because of the large size of formulary files, updating formulary is a painstaking process with self-hosted software. By using a cloud-based service, your practice can eliminate many hassles.
Documentation of adherence to privacy and security standards
As part of NextGen Managed Cloud Services, operations are audited for quality by third parties. Results of these audits are published in a report that your practice can use to verify adherence to privacy and security standards.
Easier application maintenance and upgrades
NextGen Managed Cloud Services manages and implements upgrades, with the cost usually included as part of your contract. This makes upgrading to a new version of NextGen® Enterprise software much easier and less time-consuming.
