Allscripts Announces It Has Been Selected By Next Level Urgent Care To Help Drive Clinical, Financial And Operational Performance

Allscripts (NASDAQ:MDRX) announced today that Next Level Urgent Care has selected Allscripts to improve connectivity, provide better electronic health record (EHR) workflows and greatly advance analytics to all of its locations. All Next Level Urgent Care's facilities will implement Allscripts Touchworks(r) platform as well as Microsoft Azure hosting and services.

Next Level Urgent Care provides walk-in care for non-life-threatening illnesses and injuries such as sprains, strains, fractures, lacerations, allergies, rashes, and congestion issues, with locations throughout the Houston area. As the first organization in Texas to achieve Urgent Care Center Accreditation through the American Academy of Urgent Care Medicine (AAUCM), a voluntary evaluation that measures the quality of services and performance against nationally recognized standards, Next Level Urgent Care clinics provide an alternative for the treatment of non-life-threatening health conditions.

TouchWorks EHR is a leading EHR platform for large, multi-specialty practices, management services organization (MSO) platforms, and academic and independent delivery networks (IDNs). With its open architecture and configurability, TouchWorks EHR can scale easily and integrate with existing solutions. The EHR provides the right solution for ambulatory practices, including teaching and research-oriented practices, to provide improved patient care and better facilitate population health initiatives.

"Allscripts will help us achieve a single, clinical, patient record and unified workflow for medical staff to better serve patients that are in search of high-quality, cost-effective, immediate medical care for non-life-threatening illnesses and injuries," said Next Level Chief Executive Officer, Dr. Juliet Breeze. "Additionally, by implementing an enterprise patient engagement solution such as FollowMyHealth, we're helping promote healthy patient populations and manage care quality within our communities."

"We're proud to partner with Next Level Urgent Care in its efforts to provide excellent healthcare to the city of Houston, all while achieving its business and operational goals," said Allscripts Chief Executive Officer, Paul Black. "We look forward to supporting Next level Urgent Care's vision of harnessing integrated clinical and financial solutions that drive improved outcomes for the organization and its patient communities."
