Tribal health
As the Indian Health Service (IHS) discontinues Resource and Patient Management System (RPMS) development and maintenance, you need a partner that understands your needs. Our one system for tribal health provides one patient EHR for medical, dental, and behavioral health to simplify practicing medicine, and help meet federal reporting needs. NextGen Healthcare is proud to create healthier communities with our more than 45 tribal partners.

Before the visit
Keep tribal members from missing appointments, and save up to $150,000. Send them appointment reminders, along with a note to bring their referral paperwork.
Check-in
Easily view patients' responses to clinical queries, and securely transfer interviews and questionnaires they have completed to their patient record. Connect better with patients in rural communities by focusing on them instead of on clicking and checking them in.
During the visit
Get every necessary detail during each visit by documenting it on your phone, and turn more of your attention toward engaging with patients.
Checkout
Report on quality by sending C-CDA documents. Prevent medication errors by streamlining medication and allergy reconciliation. Give tribal members access to a patient health record (PHR) system, where they can find their own data.
After the visit
Automatically handle tribal health split billing. Simplify scrubbing, adjusting, and submitting your claims.

A medical, dental, and behavioral IHS EHR with a single sign-on
Our one system provides a single, integrated patient record, without forcing you to work with disparate solutions. And you can tailor the tribal-specific content to your unique needs.
All-in-one reporting for tribal health
Your tribal health solution provides integrated UDS, IHS, IHS/NDW NPRIS, GPRA, DART, Ryan White, and Purchased/Referred Care reporting.
Easier IHS reporting
Using your solution, you can determine reportable patient registrations and encounters, all while generating an HL7-approved format for submission.
All-encompassing interoperability
