Why teams connect NextGen Healthcare and TimescaleDB

Mirror NextGen Healthcare's data into TimescaleDB so your own code can read and write it like any other table, with changes flowing both ways in seconds.

Engineers integrate with tools like NextGen Healthcare through APIs, which means auth, pagination, rate limits, webhooks, and retry logic, all maintained forever and all different for every tool. Meanwhile the data would be trivial to use if it simply lived in TimescaleDB.

Stacksync mirrors Encounters, Providers, Clinical Documents, Medications & Allergies from NextGen Healthcare into Views, Schemas, Hypertables, Chunks in TimescaleDB and keeps both sides in sync in real time. Your services query the database directly, and inserts or updates your code makes flow back into NextGen Healthcare, so the tool and the database never disagree.

Common use cases

  • Push appointment schedules to reminder and communication tools and write confirmations back.
  • Land encounters and charges in a warehouse for revenue-cycle and utilization analytics.
  • Replicate subscription and billing events from operational Postgres tables into Timescale hypertables for time-series analysis.
  • Keep device or asset reference tables bi-directionally in sync between TimescaleDB and an ERP.

Read NextGen Healthcare with a query

Records from NextGen Healthcare are ordinary rows in TimescaleDB; join them, index them, and use them in application logic without touching the vendor API.

Automate NextGen Healthcare from your codebase

Write to the synced tables in TimescaleDB and Stacksync propagates the change into NextGen Healthcare, replacing custom integration code.

React to changes as they happen

Updates in NextGen Healthcare arrive as row changes in TimescaleDB, so triggers, jobs, and services can respond in near real time.

What you can sync between NextGen Healthcare and TimescaleDB

Representative objects on each side — any object or custom field can map to any target. Schemas are auto-detected; types are converted between the two systems.

NextGen Healthcare objects TimescaleDB objects
Appointments Schedule data read and written for reminders, self-scheduling, and capacity reporting. Schemas Postgres namespaces used to separate synced datasets by team or environment.
Encounters Visit records landed in analytics stores for utilization and quality reporting. Hypertables Time-partitioned tables that hold the main time-series data; the primary read and write target in syncs.
Providers Clinician and location directories kept consistent across scheduling and web systems. Chunks Time-bounded partitions of a hypertable; syncs read and write through the parent hypertable and never address chunks directly.
Clinical Documents Notes and attachments exchanged with referral and document-management workflows. Continuous Aggregates Incrementally maintained rollups that serve as pre-aggregated read sources for downstream systems.
Medications & Allergies Clinical list data read via standardized FHIR resources for care coordination. Regular PostgreSQL Tables Relational reference data such as devices, tenants, or accounts synced alongside the series data.
Lab Results Result data read for patient-facing portals and analytics. Views Standard SQL views used to shape or filter data for consumers.

How the NextGen Healthcare and TimescaleDB connectors work

NextGen Healthcare

Integration surface
REST API, including FHIR-based endpoints published through NextGen's developer API program
Authentication
OAuth 2.0
Change detection
Polling, typically filtering on last-updated timestamps; no general-purpose webhook surface
Capabilities
read · write
Rate limits
Subject to the platform's API rate limits and healthcare data-access agreements.

TimescaleDB

Integration surface
SQL wire protocol (PostgreSQL)
Authentication
Database credentials
Change detection
Log-based capture via PostgreSQL logical decoding where the deployment allows it — hypertable changes surface on the underlying chunk tables and must be remapped to the parent — or timestamp-based polling on time columns; regular Postgres tables replicate through standard logical replication
Capabilities
read · write · CDC
Rate limits
No API rate limits; throughput is bounded by database resources and connection limits.
