Why teams connect MotherDuck and NextGen Healthcare

Get the data locked inside NextGen Healthcare into MotherDuck as live tables, and send results back where NextGen Healthcare can use them, without writing a pipeline.

Whatever NextGen Healthcare is used for, it accumulates data the rest of the company wants to analyze, and that data usually sits behind an API rather than in the warehouse. Building and babysitting an extraction pipeline is the tax most teams pay for it.

Stacksync syncs Charges & Billing, Patients, Appointments, Encounters from NextGen Healthcare into tables in MotherDuck continuously, handling schema, rate limits, and retries. Because the sync is bi-directional, results computed in MotherDuck can also be written back into fields in NextGen Healthcare where the tool can use them.

Common use cases

  • 01 Push appointment schedules to reminder and communication tools and write confirmations back.
  • 02 Land encounters and charges in a warehouse for revenue-cycle and utilization analytics.
  • 03 Share curated, synced datasets with other teams through read-only database shares
  • 04 Land CRM and operational database records in MotherDuck so a small team gets warehouse-style analytics without cluster management
