Jacque P.: Hi, I'm Jacque, and I'm a medical billing manager for a private medical practice and I give NextGen Healthcare three out of five star rating. We use NextGen Healthcare to do billing for our private practice. With three practitioners, it makes it easy to bill in one set area for all three of them at the same time, to send out claims and get the return EOBs to post to the remits. What I like best about NextGen Healthcare is the fact that it's super simple to use. When training new workers, they catch on easily because it's a very simple format that is laid out perfectly for anybody to just data input and send your claims off to get a return profit. I would have to say what I like least about NextGen Healthcare is the fact that when we need help, it seems to be very hard to get ahold of somebody. We do have a rep, but they have several people that I need to contact and it seems like I'm just being pushed off from one person to the next and when I do speak to somebody about a specific issue, it seems like if they're not very knowledgeable in that field, even though they would be IT, or my rep to get prices quoted, or have a technological issue that needs solved, it just seems very hard to get any issues resolved whatsoever. As well as the price that we were first told, it seemed to change very much throughout our contract, and we just constantly seem to have issues, especially with communication with NextGen Healthcare, unfortunately,
