A Nextech Case Study
Retina Center of New Jersey, led by Dr. Patrick Higgins, grew from a solo practice into a multi‑doctor, multi‑location clinic and one of the state’s largest retinal research centers, often seeing 70–90 patients per day. The practice struggled with prior EMR systems that produced inaccurate charts, were not intuitive to an ophthalmologist’s workflow, and created compliance and efficiency concerns.
They implemented IntelleChart, an ophthalmology‑specific EMR with a customizable Shared Knowledge Base and Shared Care referral functionality. The system delivered faster, more accurate charting, automated population of referral data to save exam time, improved coding and billing efficiency, and supported high patient volumes with an intuitive interface that required minimal training.
