 *         Represents the aggregate number of shares of VantageMed Corporation common stock beneficially owned by the directors, officers and certain other stockholders of VantageMed Corporation who entered into Voting Agreements dated February 16, 2007 with Nightingale Informatix Corporation obligating the holder to vote such shares in favor of the proposed acquisition of VantageMed Corporation by Nightingale Informatix Corporation and related matters. Nightingale Informatix Corporation expressly disclaims beneficial ownership of any of the shares of VantageMed Corporation common stock subject to the Voting Agreements.

**       Based on 40,000,000 shares of VantageMed Corporation common stock, of which 15,358,745 shares were outstanding as of February 15, 2007, as represented by VantageMed Corporation in the Agreement and Plan of Merger discussed in Items 3, 4 and 6 below, and 2,641,370 shares were beneficially owned by the Stockholders pursuant to stock options and warrants in respect of VantageMed Corporation common stock that were vested as of February 15, 2007 or will vest within 60 days of such date.

Item 1. Security and Issuer

This Statement on Schedule 13D (“Statement”) relates to shares of common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Shares”), of VantageMed Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), which has its principal executive offices at 11060 White Rock Road, Suite 210, Rancho Cordova, California 95670.

Item 2. Identity and Background

(a)           This Statement is being filed by Nightingale Informatix Corporation, a corporation existing under the laws of the Province of Ontario (“Nightingale”).

(b)           The principal business address of Nightingale is 3762 14th Avenue, Ground Floor, Markham, Ontario L3R 0G7 Canada.

(c)           Nightingale is a healthcare application service provider for outpatient clinics. Nightingale’s Internet-based electronic health record, electronic medical record and practice management solutions are designed to help physicians, clinics, hospitals and other healthcare organizations more efficiently manage their operations and patient records.

(d)           During the past five years, neither Nightingale nor, to the knowledge of Nightingale, any




person named on Schedule I attached hereto has been convicted in a criminal proceeding (excluding traffic violations or similar misdemeanors).

(e)           During the past five years, neither Nightingale nor, to the knowledge of Nightingale, any person named on Schedule I attached hereto was a party to a civil proceeding of a judicial or administrative body of competent jurisdiction as a result of which such person or entity was or is subject to a judgment, decree or final order enjoining future violations of, or prohibiting or mandating activities subject to, federal or state securities laws or finding any violation with respect to such laws.

(f)            To the knowledge of Nightingale, except as otherwise indicated on Schedule I attached hereto, each of the individuals identified on Schedule I attached hereto is a citizen of Canada.

This Item 2 is qualified in its entirety by reference to Schedule I to this Statement, which is incorporated herein by reference.

Item 3. Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration

Pursuant to the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of February 16, 2007, a copy of which is filed herewith as Exhibit 1 (the “Merger Agreement”), by and among Nightingale Informatix Corporation, Viper Acquisition Corporation and VantageMed Corporation, Nightingale will acquire the Company by means of a merger of Viper Acquisition Corporation, a wholly owned subsidiary of Nightingale (“Merger Sub”), with and into the Company (the “Merger”).  As a result of the Merger, the Company will become a wholly owned subsidiary of Nightingale. As an inducement for Nightingale to enter into the Merger Agreement and in consideration thereof, certain directors, officers and other stockholders of the Company, as identified on Schedule II (collectively, the “Stockholders”), entered into Company Voting Agreements with Nightingale, dated as of February 16, 2007 (the “Voting Agreements”), the forms of which are filed herewith as Exhibit 2 and Exhibit 3 and are more fully described in Item 6. Nightingale did not pay any additional consideration to the Stockholders in exchange for the Voting Agreements.

Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, Nightingale will pay each Company stockholder $0.75 per Share in cash, which, based on the 15,358,745 Shares outstanding as of February 15, 2007, as represented by the Company in the Merger Agreement, and an additional 1,945,695 Shares estimated by the Company that will be issuable as a result of vested in-the-money options and warrants on or before the closing of the Merger, makes the total consideration payable to the Company stockholders approximately $13 million. Such funds will be made available to Nightingale from the Bridge Facility (as defined below) or the Offering (as defined below), or a combination of both, as well as from internal cash resources of Nightingale.

In connection with the Merger, Nightingale has arranged a committed subordinated credit facility of CDN$15.5 million led by Wellington Financial LP and including Export Development Canada, a Limited Partner in Wellington Financial Fund III (the “Bridge Facility”). The Bridge Facility will be a secured term loan available by way of a single draw at the closing of the Merger, with CDN$6 million repayable at 12 months and CDN$9.5 million repayable at 24 months from the date of closing of the credit facility at an average interest rate of 12.75% per annum. The Bridge Facility will be secured against all of the assets of Nightingale and the Company. A commitment letter (the “Commitment Letter”) dated February 15, 2007 for the Bridge Facility is filed herewith as Exhibit 4. Availability of the Bridge Facility will be subject to certain customary conditions, and Nightingale must comply with certain customary financial and




other covenants and reporting obligations under the credit documentation which will govern and evidence the Bridge Facility.

Nightingale filed a preliminary short form prospectus with the Ontario Securities Commission on February 26, 2007 in connection with a fully-marketed, underwritten public offering of subscription receipts in the Provinces of Ontario, British Columbia, Alberta, Manitoba and Quebec (the “Offering”). Each subscription receipt will entitle the holder thereof to receive, for no additional consideration, a unit (a “Unit”) consisting of one common share and one half of one common share purchase warrant (each whole warrant, a “Warrant”) of Nightingale. Each Warrant will entitle the holder to subscribe for one common share of Nightingale for a period of 24 months from the date of issue. Dundee Securities Corp. and Clarus Securities Inc. have agreed to act as co-lead underwriters and together with Raymond James Ltd., form the syndicate of underwriters (collectively, the “Underwriters”) for the Offering. Nightingale expects that the gross proceeds of the Offering will be approximately CDN$15 million with the final terms of the Offering to be determined at the time of pricing. Closing of the Offering is expected to occur on or about March 19, 2007 and is subject to, among other things, regulatory approval. The gross proceeds of the Offering will be deposited in escrow pending the completion of the Merger, whereupon such proceeds will be released to Nightingale and the subscription receipts will automatically be exchanged for Units.

By having Bridge Facility in place, completion of the Merger is not conditional upon completion of the Offering. If the Merger closes prior to the completion of the Offering, Nightingale will draw upon the Bridge Facility to finance the total consideration payable to the Company stockholders in the Merger. However, if the Offering is, as Nightingale expects, completed prior to the completion of the Merger, Nightingale will not draw on the Bridge Facility or only draw on part of the Bridge Facility.

References to, and descriptions of, the Merger, the Merger Agreement, the Voting Agreements and the Commitment Letter throughout this Statement are qualified in their entirety by reference to the Merger Agreement filed herewith as Exhibit 1, the forms of Voting Agreements filed herewith as Exhibit 2 and Exhibit 3 and the Commitment Letter filed herewith as Exhibit 4.  These agreements are incorporated into this Statement where such references and descriptions appear.

Item 4. Purpose of Transaction

The Voting Agreements were an inducement to Nightingale to enter into the Merger Agreement, and were entered into by the parties thereto in order to facilitate the consummation of the Merger. Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, upon the consummation of the Merger, among other things, (i) Merger Sub will merge with and into the Company, (ii) the Company will continue in existence as the surviving corporation in the Merger (the “Surviving Corporation”), (iii) the Surviving Corporation will be a wholly owned subsidiary of Nightingale following the Merger, (iv) each Share of the Company (subject to certain conditions and exceptions set forth in the Merger Agreement) shall be converted into the right to receive $0.75 in cash without interest, (v) the directors and officers of Merger Sub will become the directors and officers of the Surviving Corporation, (vi) the Certificate of Incorporation of the Surviving Corporation shall be amended as provided in the Merger Agreement, and, as so amended, will be in effect until thereafter changed or amended, and (vii) the by-laws of Merger Sub, as in effect immediately prior to the Merger, shall be the by-laws of the Surviving Corporation until thereafter changed or amended.

Upon consummation of the Merger, the Shares shall cease to be listed on the OTC




Bulletin Board and shall become eligible for termination of registration pursuant to Section 12(g)(4) of the Act.

The purpose of the Merger is to acquire control of, and the entire equity interest in, the Company. The Board of Directors of the Company has unanimously approved and adopted the Merger Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby.

                Other than changes described below, it is contemplated that the business and operations of the Company will be continued substantially as they are currently being conducted. Nightingale currently intends to maintain the Company’s headquarters in Rancho Cordova, California. Nightingale will continue to evaluate the business and operations of the Company during the pendency of the Merger and after the consummation of the Merger and will take such actions as it deems appropriate under the circumstances then existing. Thereafter, Nightingale intends to review such information as part of a comprehensive review of the Company’s business, operations, capitalization, indebtedness and management with a view to optimizing development of the Company’s potential in conjunction with Nightingale’s existing business. In addition, Nightingale intends to and will cause the Company to cease being listed on the OTC Bulletin Board and apply for termination of registration of the Shares under the Act as soon after the completion of the Merger as the requirements for such cessation and termination are met. If registration of the Shares is not terminated prior to the Merger, the registration of the Shares under the Exchange Act will be terminated following the consummation of the Merger. Finally in the Merger, the directors and officers of the Company will be replaced with the directors and officers of the Merger Sub.

                Except as set forth in this Statement (including any information incorporated herein by reference) and in connection with the transaction described above, Nightingale does not have any plan or proposal that relates to or would result in any of the transactions described in subparagraphs (a) through (j) of Item 4 of Schedule 13D.

Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Issuer

 (a)          For purposes of Rule 13d-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act, as a result of the Voting Agreements, Nightingale may be deemed to be the beneficial owner of 8,901,350 Shares, representing an aggregate of 58.0% of the Company’s issued and outstanding Shares as of February 15, 2007 (including Shares issuable pursuant to options, rights or securities owned by any of the Stockholders that were vested as of February 15, 2007 or will vest within 60 days of such date).  Nightingale disclaims any beneficial ownership of such Shares, and nothing herein shall be deemed an admission by Nightingale as to the beneficial ownership of such Shares.

To the knowledge of Nightingale, no Shares are beneficially owned by any of the persons identified in Schedule I to this Statement.

(b)           Nightingale may be deemed to share voting power with respect to the 8,901,350 Shares referenced in (a) above due to Nightingale’s right under the Voting Agreements to direct the voting of such Shares with respect to the matters specified therein (and to vote such Shares in accordance with proxies contained in the Voting Agreements with Richard Altinger, Altinger Family LLC, David Philipp, Steve Curd, Liesel Loesch and Mark Cameron). However, Nightingale does not control the voting of such Shares with respect to other matters, and Nightingale does not possess any other rights as a Company stockholder with respect to such Shares.




The Voting Agreements discussed below in Item 6 apply to any Shares and all other securities of the Company (including all options, warrants and rights to acquire shares of Company common stock) owned by Stockholders as of the date of the Voting Agreements and all additional securities of the Company (including all additional shares of common stock and all additional options, warrants and rights to acquire shares of Company common stock) of which any of the Stockholders becomes the beneficial owner during the period commencing with the execution and delivery of the Voting Agreement until the termination of the Voting Agreement.

Information required by Item 2(a)-(c) with respect to each Stockholder who entered into a Voting Agreement with Nightingale is set forth on Schedule II attached hereto. To the knowledge of Nightingale, none of the Stockholders (i) has been convicted in a criminal proceeding (excluding traffic violations or similar misdemeanors) during the last five years, or (ii) was a party to a civil proceeding of a judicial or administrative body of competent jurisdiction and as a result of such proceeding was or is subject to a judgment, decree, or final order enjoining future violations of, or prohibiting or mandating activities subject to, federal or state securities laws or finding any violation with respect to such laws during the last five years. To the knowledge of Nightingale, each of the individuals listed on Schedule II attached hereto is a citizen of the United States.

(c)           Neither of Nightingale, nor, to the knowledge of Nightingale, any person or entity listed on Schedule I attached hereto, has effected any transactions in the Shares during the past 60 days.

(d)           To the knowledge of Nightingale, except as otherwise indicated, no person other than the Stockholders identified on Schedule II attached hereto has the right to receive or the power to direct the receipt of dividend from, or the proceeds from the sale of, the Shares.

(e)           Not applicable.

The foregoing discussion is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Voting Agreements, the forms of which is filed herewith as Exhibit 2 and Exhibit 3 to this Statement and are incorporated herein by reference.

Attention:  Nick Vaney, CFO:

Re:  Secured Term Loans — Commitment Letter

We understand that Nightingale Informatix Corporation (the “Borrower” or “Company”) intends to acquire all the issued and outstanding shares of VantageMed Corporation (the “Target”) (the “Acquisition”).  In connection with the Acquisition, the Borrower requires loans of up to Cdn. $15,500,000 (the “Term Loans”).

The Borrower has asked that Wellington Financial LP (the “Partnership”) and Export Development Canada (“EDC” and, together with the Partnership, collectively the “Lenders”) commit to provide the Borrower the Term Loans.

The Lenders are pleased to confirm their commitment to the Borrower that they are willing to provide to the Borrower (a) in the case of the Partnership, 50% of the Term Loans and (b) in the case of EDC, 50% of the Term Loans, in each case on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth (i) herein, (ii) in the summary of terms and conditions set forth in the term sheet attached hereto as Appendix “A” (the “Term Sheet”) and (iii) in the letter of even date herewith addressed to you providing, among other things, for certain fees relating to the Term Loans (the “Fee Letter”).

The commitment of the Lenders to provide the Term Loans is expressly subject to (i) there not having occurred a material adverse change in the business, operations, assets, financial condition or liabilities (contingent or otherwise) of the Borrower and its subsidiaries, taken as a whole; (ii) the Lenders shall not have become aware of any information or other matter which is inconsistent in any material and adverse manner with any information or other matter disclosed to the Lenders by or on behalf of the Borrower, any of its affiliates, representatives or advisers; (iii) the Lenders shall have been given such access to all information which the Borrower has regarding the Target or any of its subsidiaries, their business or the Acquisition as it shall have reasonably requested; (iv) payment in full of all fees and expenses and other amounts payable under this Commitment Letter, the Term Sheet and the Fee Letter




when due and payable and (v) satisfaction of the other terms and conditions set forth or referred to herein and in the Term Sheet.

To induce the Lenders to provide its commitments to the Borrower, the Borrower hereby agrees that the Lenders’ and all of its affiliates’ reasonable expenses incurred (including the reasonable legal fees and expenses of Osler, Hoskin & Harcourt LLP and local counsel and agents retained by Osler, Hoskin & Harcourt LLP on our behalf) in connection with the transaction described herein shall be for the Borrower’s account, whether or not the Term Loans are made or definitive documents in respect thereof are executed.  The Borrower further agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Lenders and each of their affiliates and each director, officer and employee thereof (each of the foregoing an “indemnified person”) from and against any and all actions, suits, proceedings (including any investigation or inquiry), claims, losses, damages, liabilities or expenses of any kind or nature whatsoever which may be incurred by or asserted against or involve any such indemnified person as a result of or arising out of or in any way related to this letter and, upon demand, to pay and reimburse each indemnified person for any reasonable legal or other out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with investigating, defending or preparing to defend any such action, suit, proceeding (including any inquiry or investigation) or claim (whether or not any such person is a party to any action or proceeding out of which any such expenses arise), provided that the Borrower shall have no obligation to indemnify any indemnified person for any of the foregoing to the extent determined by a judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction to have arisen from its gross negligence, wilful misconduct or fraud.  This letter is addressed solely to the Borrower and the Lenders shall have no liability to the Borrower or any other person for any consequential damages which may be alleged as a result of this letter or any of the transactions referred to herein.

This Commitment Letter is delivered to you upon the condition that neither the existence of this Commitment Letter, the Fee Letter or the Term Sheet nor any of their contents shall be disclosed by you or any of your affiliates, directly or indirectly, to any other person, except that such existence and contents may be disclosed (i) as may be compelled in a judicial or administrative proceeding or as otherwise required by law (based on the advice of legal counsel and subject to such permissible redaction as shall be satisfactory to us), (ii) to your directors, officers, legal counsel and accountants and (iii) to the directors and officers of Clarus Capital, in each case on a confidential and “need-to-know” basis and only in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby.  In addition, this Commitment Letter and the Term Sheet (but not the Fee Letter) may be disclosed to the Target and its directors, officers, advisors and agents, in each case on a confidential and “need-to-know” basis and only in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby.

This Commitment Letter shall not be assignable by you without the prior written consent of the Lenders (and any attempted assignment without such consent shall be null and void), is intended to be solely for the benefit of the parties hereto (and the indemnified persons), is not intended to confer any benefits upon, or create any rights in favour of, any person other than the parties hereto (and the indemnified persons) and is not intended to create a fiduciary relationship between the parties hereto or either of you and any indemnified person.  This Commitment Letter may not be amended or any provision hereof waived or modified except by an instrument in writing signed by us and you.  This Commitment Letter (including the Term Sheet) supersedes in all respects those summaries of terms delivered to you by the Lenders or

2




any of them (and all other commitment letters, term sheets and other such agreements or documents).

The compensation, reimbursement, indemnification and confidentiality provisions contained herein shall remain in full force and effect regardless of whether definitive financing documentation shall be executed and delivered and notwithstanding the termination of this Commitment Letter or the Lenders’ commitments hereunder; provided that your obligations under this Commitment Letter, other than those relating to confidentiality and indemnities (to the extent not included in the definitive loan documents) shall be superseded by the definitive loan documents upon their execution, and, in each case, you shall be released from all liability in connection therewith at such time.

This Commitment Letter and the Term Sheet shall be governed by and construed in accordance with, the laws of the Province of Ontario and the federal laws of Canada applicable therein.  This Commitment Letter may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be an original and all of which, when taken together, shall constitute one agreement.  Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Commitment Letter by facsimile transmission shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Commitment Letter.

[REMAINDER OF PAGE INTENTIONALLY LEFT BLANK.]

If the Borrower is in agreement with the foregoing, please sign and return to each of us (including by way of facsimile) a copy of this letter no later than 11:59 p.m. (Toronto time) on February 15, 2007.  If the Borrower declines to take the foregoing actions, the Borrower shall return all copies of this letter and the Term Sheet to the Partnership as promptly as possible and in such event the Borrower is not authorized to disclose this letter nor the Term Sheet or the contents thereof to any other party.

Yours truly,
