Nextech, market leader of comprehensive technology solutions for specialty physician practices, today announced Key-Whitman Eye Center has selected Nextech’s ophthalmology platform to automate clinical, surgical, and administrative workflows, increase speed to revenue, and improve patient engagement and care across its 12 locations and two surgery centers in the Dallas-Fort Worth metroplex.

“After an extensive evaluation we found that Nextech’s ophthalmology platform with integrated data, payments, reporting, and AI functions provided us the ability to drive operational and financial efficiencies across our expanding organization,” said Dan Chambers, CEO, MBA, COE, FASOA with 25 years at Key-Whitman Eye Center and Central Point Surgery Center.

“The ability for us to have visibility of our clinical and ASC operations across our 12 practice locations is critical to improving both our clinical and patient outcomes. Our management and clinical team was deeply involved in the analysis and recommendation of the various integrated systems for ophthalmology, optometry, optical, and ASC operations.”

Designed specifically for the unique and complex requirements of eyecare practices, Nextech’s ophthalmology platform is the IRIS® Registry’s No. 1 collaborator with the most registered practices. Built on the company’s natively integrated EHR and practice management system, it provides practices with a secure and easy-to-use healthcare platform that automates clinical and operational workflows, streamlines processes, and improves the quality of the patient experience, resulting in better practice and healthcare outcomes.

“We are seeing more multi-location eyecare practices turn to Nextech to provide them with a single technology platform to gain complete visibility across their entire clinical operations,” said Rusty Frantz, chief executive officer at Nextech. “Our out-of-the-box content allows practices to rapidly deploy and seamlessly integrate with clinic workflows, while our technology enables them to easily scale to meet the demands of their expanding number of practices they operate.”
