MARKHAM, ON, July 17, 2014 /CNW/ - Nightingale Informatix Corporation ("Nightingale" or the "Company") (TSX-V: NGH), a cloud-based provider of electronic health record (EHR) software and related services, today unveils NightingaleEHR (Nexia), its next generation cloud-based Electronic Health Record Platform.

"NightingaleEHR is another substantial milestone," said Sam Chebib, President & CEO of Nightingale.  "Our next generation product combines the robust functionality Nightingale has delivered over the past 12 years with a state of the art technology platform designed around five key principles: device and platform agnostic; predictive workflow with zero-based training needs; role based and workflow driven; highly interoperable; and multi-lingual support which delivers a new level of value to healthcare providers."

This product will be available to Nightingale's prospects in the Ontario and US markets in August and later in the year for other Canadian provinces. It will address the traditional Enterprise market that Nightingale has historically led and will be made available to smaller clinics through the Company's new self-service model.

"We believe that the North American EMR market is crowded with legacy products and that NightingaleEHR will be a game-changer" added Chebib. "Over the past 30 months we have invested over $12 million designing and building NightingaleEHR and the feedback from both current and prospective users has been extremely positive and very encouraging. It validates our vision & strategy of simplifying healthcare management through the use best of breed technology."

The Company is planning to migrate all 20,000 users and 17 million patient records on its current platform to Nexia starting early next year.
