Charlie Jarvis interviews Steve Puckett about NextGen Healthcare's expansion in the hospital market through the acquisitions of an inpatient financial system from Sphere Health and a Web-based clinical suite from Opus Healthcare Solutions. An industry shift toward delivering a single provider, single patient experience across the continuum of care, and its essential role in qualifying for Meaningful Use, helped drive this decision to expand. Charlie and Steve also outline why NextGen Healthcare chose a "buy-to-build" approach for this expansion and why the company will focus primarily on serving the unique needs of critical access hospitals.
