what I like most about waystar/zirmed is the ability to perform most of the functions I need with one program, I can verify most of the insurances we use including medicare and getting same/similar information from medicare. i love the rejected claims dashboard and how I can sort to be able to notice trends. they show the claim rejected by waystar/zirmed and claims rejected by the payer. patient payments...
I would like to them to add a way to have an open-ended autopay. if we have a patient on oxgyen and it rents forever we still have to put in a total amount so at some point it will stop.

Overall I do like Waystar and would be hesitant to leave. It is very intuitive and we have very little issues with claims.
Waystar is very easy to use. Its features are robust and we have very limited issues with Waystar. We have to give very little Waystar training to our new employees because it is so easy to use.
In general I feel things run fairly smoothly with Waystar but when they *don't* I feel it is hard to get help or clarification on issues. We are often advised to contact the payer or it takes a while to hear back on more complicated tickets. Downtime of various applications has increased recently as well.

Fantastic software - absolutely incompetent service.
We've used Zirmed for quite a few years. The product itself is great! Intuitive, effective, everything. We prefer to every other clearinghouse we've tried.
Waystar purchased Zirmed a couple years ago. Now, the service is amount the worst I've ever heard of. Currently, about 65% of my bill goes toward a feature that I don't believe we're using. I've been through months and months of emails, calls and service tickets trying to get an answer to the very simple question, "What am I paying for?". The only confident answers I've gotten have been inaccurate,...

Overall, I feel neutral about it, there are good and bad with all Software. This one could use a little tweaking but all in all it is fine.
I like the way that you can check you invoices to see when they were accepted by the payor and that it tells you the reason for the denial, whether it be, wrong ID, name/number, DOB, needs NDC, whatever and you are able to fix in the screen and resend the claim.
Having to go back and forth from this to the actual EMR, it would be nice if it was all in one, so you could fix the claim and it would show on the other side that you fixed it, instead of fixing and going into the other side to fix on that side.

Postive, I am not sure if I can accept the gift card.
No surprises, easy to access, I can check for multiple information easily. Searching for information is straight forward and fast.
Sometimes when I am pulling up claim information, there will be an eob. Not sure if that has anything to do with your program.

Overall our experience has been decent. The only thing we dislike is the pricing continuing to go up, which may in the future effect if we continue to use Waystar.
Easy to use, quick to get remits back, and submitted to proper insurance channels.
Nothing at this time to report. Software is easy to use and I've had no issues.

Easy to use. When you need to search for a claim its easy to find. Payments are also easy to find.
It is sometimes not easy to find answers to questions when you need to fix a claim.

Waystar is very easy to use for all user types. I really like how simple it is to navigate the site and appreciate the links that are available when I need help understanding how to fix something on a claim for resubmission.
I do not have any cons at this time from using Waystar.

It is a great product and i really enjoy using it.
my abilities to work claims as they come in, before thing get out of hand. I can catch the claims as they deny and get them corrected.
there are a few times when things just don't seem to work correctly, but that would be the only time.

My overall experience is generally very good
Very easy to use for submitting claims and receiving remits.
Signed up for the denial tracking but I am not finding it as useful as I thought I would.

The ease in which we can billing our claims saves so much time, if a claim goes through the scrubber and has an error the user can fix it immediately. Receiving the daily reports such as a Projected Payment Report, AR Rejection Report, ASAP-UB04 Crossover Reports and many others notify the user daily of the status of the claims moving through the billing cycle.
This software offers a number of different services. My company uses 10 services to manage all of our Medicare/Medicaid and Commercial Billing as well as supplemental insurances. It is very easy to use, it offers a number of different reports that the user can decide what they want to receive daily in the email inbox. It also has some of the best support I have had the experience to work with, they are very respondent to questions and issues are resolved very timely.
The Maven service allows the user to manage their Post Pay Reviews, RAC's ADR's CERT reviews, etc. I have problems flipping claims to the Appeals Manager within the Maven service, but it is probably because I don't use it enough to remember how to do that operation. But the pros out weight the cons with this service as the ease of electronically submitting the different reviews is very time saving and all your records are saved in one place within system.

We started with Zirmed and transitioned to Waystar. It was flawless. It's easy to use. The value is excellent. They have a huge list of insurances OR you can have them send a paper claim. We were working with an older (outdated, frankly) practice management software and Waystar worked with us so we could still upload claims. Editing rejected claims is very easy. There are also Premium products you can buy if you would like to streamline your RCM such as code look up and insurance verification.
It is very user friendly. Their customer service has always been very responsive.
Medicare Secondary billing is clumsy. (Not a Con but) there are several features we don't need/use. They clutter up the dashboard.

We were a fairly small practice when we started with Navicure (8 physicians) and grew to almost 30 providers. Navicure worked great even as we grew.
The messaging system you can use for issues/questions is usually responded to pretty quickly, reps are nice via telephone also. Easy system, user friendly. Didn't require much training. it gives you the option to correct claims directly in Navicure, or cancel and resend from your billing system. Printable reports when needed, easy sorting.
There aren't really any I recall, but it would have been very nice to have two way communication (meaning the changes made in Navicure would be sent back to the billing system). For this reason we chose to cancel the claims and correct them in the billing system to avoid the possibility of forgetting to update in the billing system after it was done in Navicure.

Expense! Although I do experience the value of your product and services as positive. I really think Symphony should be the standard application for users. There is so much more to help a biller get their work done and information available at their finder tips!
I especially like Perform Reporting for the fee schedules and payments. The graphs and drill down gives us many options to choose from. Claims appeal process is swift and the pre-written appeal letters really help a lot. It is a time saver to correct the claims in Navicure. I only have to change my claim status in ECW. Now that we are on Symphony I have more choices to look over and use. We are able to look at the ERA denials as well which has been very helpful. More information and drill downs.

I like how easy it is to transmit claims and to go back and correct if necessary. I like the that there is an option to roster bill and how easy it is to use it. Common Working files are another option that is quick and easy. I appreciate the daily reports that tell you if you have a claim in trouble or that is going to pay. Which claims crossed over.
When the Medicare remits are downloaded they are very difficult to identify them by date, which is important. You have to open several to find the one you are looking for when you get ready to post the payment or to look for a specific RA. I would like to see that changed. And the only other thing I don't like is Claim Remedi. There is nothing I like about that program. Our sales rep, is always very helpful. The actual support team is not always responsive.

If it wasn't for the claims processing delays, I would say that Waystar is wonderful. Everything else about it is very good.
Waystar has a nice interface and is fairly user friendly. Many features makes claim processing quite efficient, and is very easy to use. Claim scrubbing is good.
Claims processing delays are way too frequent. Especially during the first part of the month when many are billing. But these delays can and do happen all through the month. When I say processing delays, I mean it may take 30 or more minutes to process one claim! I process a high volume of claims, and these delays really make me less efficient in my job.

The customer service is tier biggest flaw in my opinion. They do not call customers back. Any accounting or credit issues did not get resolved based on my experience. They are truly in for the all mightly dollar and lock you in to long termination agreements.
There wasn't much I did like. The company I was using was purchased by waystar. Once waystar took over, quality went way down.
The features provided by the clearing house they acquired did not function as they did before and the ones that did performed at a lessor accuracy.

Easy to track and send claims. Easy to stay current on rejected claims. Easy to fix and resubmit corrected claims. Easy to review remits.
Intuitive functionality. Great customer service. Claim history that is readable & accessible. Claims correction on site.
I wish that there was a "Print" function for printing claims history that was easier than the current set up. We often need to appeal timely filing denials. I know HOW to make the data print, but it would be easier if I could just hit a print button.

We have used Zirmed/Waystar for several years. It has improved our claims payment time and decreased denials.
We use Waystar to submit professional claims. Customer support has always been very good and the site is easy to use. Help features are also of great value when we hire new staff or need to find answers to questions.
I do not have any complaints or suggests for improving the software. It meets our needs completely.

It has made the ease of electronic billing very simple and helpful. We went from paper billing and this software could not be anymore user friendly.
It is extremely easy to navigate and the statistical information is important to us as a practice. We report to a board that requests this information monthly and it is as simple as pulling up Navicure.
Sometimes the insurance denials are hard to decipher what is actually wrong with the claim and i usually have to call in.

God-forbid If you have a problem, they will not help you.
seamless with my EHR. They advertise that they have multiple features. But you have to pay additionally for some of them.
customer relations; their internal processes are slow, cumbersome, and envirocentric. If a mistake is made on their part, they will deny it and take no responsibility for it.

We have been using multiple modules of the product since 2010. We have reviewed and tested many other competing products over the years, that promise the same functionality for a lower price, but when it comes down to it none can compare!
Easy to use, and Track your Data, for Electronic Claim Submission, Remits and Patient Payments.
it is somewhat difficult to report on data for multiple locations at one time.

Waystar is great software to use. Sometimes it has transaction error, but that is okay.
patient's transaction and sending claim
Once I process statement, I cannot cancel. Sometimes I forgot to omit patient's statement and process everything but if I cancel whole batch, I cannot process again.

Quick insurance payments due to claims going through clean right away, easy submitting of claims, tracking our errors so we can correct on our side ahead of time.
Correcting claims without going back in to our software and making the changes and then having to go back.
I sometimes have a hard time figuring out how to get around but customer support has been amazing with helping me.

I don't have as much daily use of the software as I used to; but I would recommend it.
I've used Waystar just about 6 years (since it was Zirmed). Navigation of the software is pretty cut & dry. I was billing only hospice Medicare when I was introduced to this product, but started home health billing as well as private insurance payers as well. I prefer the original format of the rejected claims page, but understand the need for more search parameters. Maybe that makes me "old school". When our office was setting up new information in the software, support was always available and very helpful. I'm not sure how often this happens, but I even had the direct cell phone line of the gentleman helping get us up and running. He never complained once about our calls.
The update to the rejected claims dashboard a couple of years ago. I've gotten used to it but still think the original functionality was better. I used the "show me the original format" button until the day they required all users to update.
