Practice Mate by Office Ally?
SendItOut:
I don't personally use their pm but I know others that do and they don't like the fact that the claims need to be submitted exclusively to them (of course unless you print them out and mail them).The drawback in using them for EDI claims is that there is a higher than normal rate of claims that have issues or get lost in a black hole.

The clearinghouse part (OA) is pretty good for a free clearinghouse. It is even better than some of the paid clearinghouses. As for PracticeMate, it is TERRIBLE. I am constantly amazed at what people will put themselves through for something free. It is like the people that stand in line for an hour for a free hamburger or something like that, when the hamburger only costs $5 and the person makes more than three times that amount per hour at their job. Waiting in line for an hour for a free $5 hamburger makes no sense when you could work that same hour and make $20. JMO. I'll get off my soapbox now. ;)

Yes I have been using Practice Mate for two years now. The good news is the software and tech support is free. The down side is it is tedious and bill on and I haven't really found any short cuts. Most importantly it only holds two months worth of revenue data. So say your doc wants to know everything He or She brought for this year. Practice Mate will only go back to October first. So import all info to excel then print my monthly reports. If my doc asks these kind of questions, then I have the print outs at my fingertips. The aging reports are not that great either. Whenever I start to complain, my husband says as that famous song entitled "Rubber Biscuit".......what do you want for nothing.
Hope this helps. I cannot afford fancy exspensive software so I am stuck with it for now.
Happy Billing :)

SERIOUSLY? Oh my no way would that work for me, that's completely unacceptable and I couldn't and wouldn't services with a program like that at all.
Christy:
