Case Study: Athletico Physical Therapy achieves faster documentation, improved reimbursement, and streamlined workflows with NextGen Healthcare's Enterprise Therapy Suite

Specialty physical therapy practice optimizes care with NextGen Enterprise Therapy Suite

Athletico Physical Therapy, a specialty rehabilitation practice based in Oak Brook with more than 100 locations, faced productivity, efficiency and security challenges after clinicians had to log into three separate legacy systems for documentation, charge capture and scheduling. Seeking better interoperability and streamlined workflows, the organization engaged about 100 clinicians and clinical managers to evaluate options and ultimately selected NextGen Healthcare.

Athletico implemented NextGen Ambulatory EHR, NextGen Practice Management and the NextGen Enterprise Therapy Suite, including PT-designed templates and payer-specific tools for G-code reporting, PQRS tracking and precertification. The result was faster documentation, cleaner claims, improved reimbursement, fewer denials and increased clinician efficiency and engagement on a stable, scalable platform to support continued growth.
