Instructor Biography:

Julie Chiesa is a consultant with more than 20 years of experience supporting NextGen organizations. She works as a Senior Consultant and the NextGen subject matter expert at Medical Advantage. She is a NextGen Certified Professional (NCP) with emphasis on EHR and is responsible for directing clients on best practices as well as educating on how to successfully configure, implement, and utilize NextGen Enterprise.

She has extensive experience in NextGen’s development platforms including the creation of custom content as well as modifying templates within the out-of-box Clinical Template set (aka ACE/KBM). She specializes in portable development so that custom content is easily re-integrated during upgrades and truly enjoys teaching practice stakeholders on how to do their own smart development as much as doing the development herself. Her concentration is always on streamlining processes and “less clicks” for clinical providers and ancillary staff.

She has worked with groups of all sizes from solo practitioners to large enterprises like MSOs, ACOs, FQHCs and national hospital organizations and has a strong working knowledge of specialty content including but not limited to, Internal Medicine/Family Practice, Orthopedics, Rheumatology, Pediatrics, ENT, Cardiology, Endocrinology, Gastroenterology, General Surgery, Behavioral Health, Ophthalmology, and OBGYN.

In addition to NextGen, Julie has a working knowledge of a number of other products in the healthcare space and prior to her healthcare IT career, she was a journalist working in online services and medical practice marketing.
