NextGen Healthcare, a well-known company that provides cloud-based healthcare technology, has formed a strategic partnership with Kno2, the largest healthcare communication network in the country and a federally recognized Qualified Health Information Network (QHIN). This partnership is designed to speed up the exchange of health data across different healthcare organizations throughout the nation, which should help improve how care is coordinated and the results for patients. Srinivas Velamoor, President and COO of NextGen Healthcare, expressed pride in joining forces with a top QHIN to assist their clients in achieving smooth data sharing across communities.

For more than a decade, NextGen Healthcare has supported interoperability by providing integrated electronic health record (EHR) solutions and using Mirth Connect, their healthcare integration platform, to link different systems. The company has also worked on setting interoperability standards, open-source projects, national health networks, and has supported FHIR-based data sharing. Many U.S. public health information exchanges now depend on NextGen’s technologies.

Velamoor pointed out that achieving effective healthcare delivery relies heavily on interoperability and mentioned that this partnership builds on NextGen’s long-term efforts in this area. He stressed that smooth data transfer is key to enhancing outcomes along the entire care journey.

Based in Boise, Kno2 has been recognized as one of the “50 Most Promising Healthcare Solution Providers” by CIOReview and has won the Microsoft Health Innovation Award. Kno2 helps efficiently share information between patients, healthcare providers, insurers, and health technology companies. Kno2 also plans to become a CMS Aligned Network by the end of 2025, showing its commitment to the changing health technology environment.

This new integration allows over 100,000 healthcare professionals from various specialties to take part in the Trusted Exchange Framework and Common Agreement (TEFCA), a national effort to make health information sharing consistent. Through Kno2’s powerful Communication API, users of NextGen Healthcare can now connect to one of the largest data networks in the industry. Therasa Bell, President and Co-founder of Kno2, said that NextGen’s work in improving outpatient care matches Kno2’s goal of enabling secure and easy clinical data exchange. She added that together, they will give healthcare professionals access to complete patient information for millions of patients each day.
