“You can pull up a claim number, and it shows it went to the payer, but it never got there per the payer, resulting in timely filing denials. “

“They are the first Clearinghouse I have ever used but all in all, between their reports, automations, reports, and affordability, I can't imagine switching.“

Clinic DirectorMedical Practice, 2 - 10 employeesUsed the software for: More than 2 years.

“Waystar traps medical providers into multi-year contracts with unfair terms, sneaky price hikes, and no ethical way to exit. If you sign up, be prepared for hidden fees, forced renewals, increased pricing, and an uphill battle if you ever try to leave. If you’re a practice owner, read the fine print carefully before signing with Waystar.“

### "Zirmed provides excellent revenue cycle management, it is easy to use and responsive"

April 25, 2018

5.0

Pros

For my company, this product offers revenue cycle management and auto insurance verification. Contracting with Zirmed has allowed the organization to speed up their verification process and provide visits to patients faster.

Cons

As with every service, the software is not infallible. Quite unfortunately so, since it is an accurate product. Where it fails is with insurances that are not verified or for those that do not reach the clearing house, the insurance processor has to revert to a manual process to verify eligibility.

### "AB's WAYSTAR REVIEW "

May 26, 2022

4.0

Pros

The function I like the most how easy and user friendly it is to submit a claim, verify the information is correct and it has been accepted, reviewed and submitted to the payer.

Cons

With my experience using Waystar, I really can not think of any aspect that I do not like or that needs to be better.

### "Horrible Customer Service and Software "

January 29, 2025

1.0

After numerous attempts trying to get implemented, Waystar stopped responding when they finally did respond, they stated that what was discussed doesn’t really work in their software. The contract would need to be terminated and they would refund everything. Some times went by and they placed our company in collection. Customer service in non-existent with them as well.

Pros

They lied about their product, and didn’t deliver

Cons

Platform is not user friendly. They don’t deliver on their promise

### "Great Product "

December 12, 2018

4.0

Waystar has helped to bundle processes into one solution. Ins verification, Claims, and patient statements are all in one system.

Pros

I like the ease of use. Offers several different functions for the providers office that allows us to streamline processes.

Cons

Every time I log in to the system, I have to agree to terms of use. There should be an option to agree to this in the beginning and not have to do every time.

### "Clearinghouse used for Hospice & HomeHealth billing for 6 years"

January 17, 2019

4.0

I don't have as much daily use of the software as I used to; but I would recommend it.

Pros

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.

Cons

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.

### "Poor customer support"

October 26, 2018

3.0

We switched our EMR system and when asked to port our account no one seems to have any quick resolution. We are going on the second month unable to bill and access our account. Customer service will promise to call and don't. And when you answer their questions of preference to your account nothing is done until you call again. And no one can help you except for the first person that started the case. And it's a complete run around of no one being able to communicate. They instruct you to do something and then another person says you can't do it. Then tells you they need sales to call you back to get it set up and no one calls. Just a simple answer of how much and what is needed to port your account will be like building a house from scratch! Maybe they've gotten too big that they've hired techs and customer service that are not trained in their own product.

Pros

comprehensive payer list and easy function

Cons

extremely poor and slow customer service.

### "Waystar "

May 27, 2021

5.0

Sending claims daily, watching for rejections, etc.

Pros

The work groups make it easy to work the claims, we still have some glitches to be worked out but so far so good!

Cons

I haven’t found much that I don’t like. I just wish some of the “catches” were easier to fix.

### "Great, easy way to see front-end rejections and access transmitted claims."

February 28, 2018

4.0

Pros

Separates each client by system and shows individually and total rejected claims. Can see claims of all statuses at any point in time.

Cons

So many e-mails about every little thing and multiple each day. Really easy to cancel claims even if the problem was not fixed.

### "Waystar buyers"

September 20, 2022

4.0

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.

Pros

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.

Cons

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.

### "Third Company I've Brought Esolutions with Me!"

January 25, 2019

4.0

My experience has overall been amazing. This is the third company I have "brought" eSolutions with me. My representative is beyond amazing and goes to the ends of the earth to make sure that the customer is satisfied. For sure that has kept me coming back every time I have moved to another corporate billing office. (Hopefully, I am here for a long time now.) The software is manageable and able to learn rather quickly. Again, customer support and technical support are always available. I also feel like the eSolutions people work as a team - particularly between technical support and customer service.

Pros

Broad scope of services, ease of use, fantastic customer support, fantastic technical support. Especially love the "live chat" option. The abilty to quickly and accurately correct claims that have been returned to provider (making corrections through Medicare Ace.). Love the Roster Billing. Love the ease to "create a claim" when needed. Also that there are prompts and scrubs when checking and fixing a returned claim. The ability to track ADRs is fantastic.

Cons

When there is an internet/technical problem with eSoutions or one of the intermediaries, eSolutions does not place a warning at the opening screen which would be extremely helpful. (Zirmed does doe this.) Because then time is spent trying to ascertain whether this is a corporate IT problem or a general internet/provider problem.

### "Waystar Customer Service / Value for the money "

March 4, 2022

4.0

Pros

You have the ability to correct claims that reject by the insurance company. Waystar also provides "scrubbing" for the electronic claims and sends back "Waystar level rejections" so that edits can be made before claims transmit to the payer source. The layout is very user-friendly and straightforward.

Cons

Customer service is very poor. There is a failure to fix problems in a timely manner. Each customer service team (claims solution, remit solution, patient statements, credit cards, client billing, etc.) clearly lacks the initiative to set a higher standard of customer service which allows critical issues and problems to go unresolved for unreasonable lengths of time.

### "A sad case of an incompetent company buying and ruining a great piece of software"

January 18, 2022

2.0

Fantastic software - absolutely incompetent service.

Pros

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.

Cons

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, but most simply don't know. They refer me to other departments. The best part is that they also caution us not to turn off the feature, because if it is serving a purpose (which no one can confirm/deny), then we may not be able to restore it after it is turned off. It is an awful shame that this ridiculous company bought and ruined our favorite clearinghouse. We are currently looking for a product (all of which we prefer less than the zirmed product) that is being offered by a minimally operative company. The transition is very challenging - please, if you're looking for a clearinghouse, DO NOT allow yourself to become dependent on these clowns. Its where we are now and its a bad spot to be in.

### "great product for claim management"

May 26, 2022

5.0

It is a great product and i really enjoy using it.

Pros

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.

Cons

there are a few times when things just don't seem to work correctly, but that would be the only time.

### "Used mainly for confirming insurances are valid/active"

June 27, 2018

4.0

Day to day insurance validity checks and billing that has a set price per bill instead per page. National address database check before sending bills to the wrong clinic

Pros

Able to run my clinic day to day knowing that patients have valid insurance and possible deductible amount. Allows us to give best patient care without unknowing giving the patient a big bill that will be from care rendered and deductible amount. Zirmed increases my clinic's ability to inform patient of deductible amounts prior so that patient understands amount they may be billed and the reason for the bill. From this, it gives patients the autonomy in their care. Zirmed also has a billing service that allows for import from billing software with set prices per bill (not page) and it checks a national database with address to make sure the bill is going to the correct patient.

Cons

The may con I have had with this is that our clinic representative left the company and we were not informed and the phone number wasn't reassigned or disconnected, which left me waiting for a return call that never came. After calling customer service, I was then reassigned

### "waystar review"

September 21, 2022

5.0

The benefit for using the software is that it is very informative and very easy to read and use.

Pros

The software is easy to maneuver through. I can easily find results for claims that have been submitted. Such as received date and time.

Cons

I have no dislike about the software. When there are issues with the software we are immediately notified. When payors cancel service with the software we are immediately notified.

### "Great resource"

June 11, 2019

5.0

Overall Waystar has been invaluable to our company. It's a one stop shop for us for claims and payments.

Pros

This product is contracted with most insurance companies to submit Professional or Institutional claims all in one place. And, it also provides electronic remittances. Product is very easy to use and customer service is always there to help. We only use the product for claims submissions, remittances and patient billing. We don't use it for eligibility checks.

Cons

I don't like that we sometimes have to wait months for customer service to come up with a resolution for any claims issues we have. And, sometimes it takes weeks for a customer service representative to work on our cases. We also wished to would give us more details on patient eligibility, but they don't and so we don't use it for that.

### "Great Claims Processing Software"

September 20, 2022

Overall, Waystar has been great for our office.

Pros

Product is easy to use and they do provide online training for new staff members if needed. Claims get submitted with ease and if there is an issue, we are notified right away.

Cons

I would like if they had a "chat box" which enabled us to speak directly with a customer service representative when needed.

May 31, 2022

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.

Pros

Easy to use, quick to get remits back, and submitted to proper insurance channels.

Cons

Nothing at this time to report. Software is easy to use and I've had no issues.

### "Billing and Denied Claims"

October 3, 2022

5.0

Cleaner claims, Easier denial access and appeal access.

Pros

The billing feature and claims follow up has been a great tool for our team. Easy access to correct claims rejections and be able to resubmit same day. The claims denials has the EOB with ease to access. Also like the appeal feature. You can send right from the system.

Cons

I was not part of the process of installation of this software. The one issue we have is the secondary claims, we bill line item and it places the information in both line item and claim. You have to go in to the claim manually and correct.
