Office Supervisor Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Excellent customization abilities within Scheduling and Reporting functions" March 7, 2018 5.0 It makes it easy for staff to understand billing procedures and therefore they can better explain to patients when balances accrue due to coinsurance/copays/deductibles. Pros The programming is intuitive and each section of a patient's account, such as patient data and claim data, communicates together (which improves ease of use and decreases labor costs). Cons It needs to have bidirectional communication with our EHR, Practice Fusion. Claims are sent from PF to CMD, but patient data is not communicated from CMD to PF, which costs us labor to input the schedule and patient data twice, once in each program.

Clinic Manager Medical Practice Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Very good and simple" May 29, 2025 5.0 Overall it has been a very good experience and it is way better than the old system our office used to use. It makes my job way easier than before. Pros I like the simplicity of CMD and that if I ever have questions, there is a knowledge center available. If I have more complex questions, I can always reach out to the support chat. I really enjoy the chat feature. Cons We operate on Hawaii Standard Time and the support chat is only available until 6PM Eastern Standard Time, there is only a limited window for us to be able to chat. If there were 24/7 support that would be great. Switched from [AdvancedPM](https://www.capterra.com/p/90209/AdvancedPM/) Very complicated to use AMD and it was hard to track claims. Review Source Response from CollaborateMD May 30, 2025 Thank you for your thoughtful feedback! We’re glad to hear you’re enjoying the simplicity of CollaborateMD and that the knowledge center and chat support have been helpful. We understand the challenge with support hours given your time zone, and we appreciate you highlighting that. Expanding support availability is something we continue to evaluate as we grow. We’re grateful you chose CMD and are happy to hear it’s made your job easier. Thanks again for sharing your experience! — The CollaborateMD Team LD LeZell D. Billing Manager Health, Wellness and Fitness Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Billing Manager " October 3, 2025 3.0 daily use of the revenue cycle, enroll a patient, charge entry, billing account notation, posting payments, adjustments, account notations Pros The program is user friendly, it has help desk and written documents to help you learn how to perform a task Cons it's is an older system and has less automation, it could use more hyperlinks inside the menu's to help jump from one menu to another within seconds Review Source Response from CollaborateMD October 8, 2025 Hi LeZell, Thank you for your feedback! We’re glad to hear you find CollaborateMD user-friendly and appreciate the help desk and learning resources.

JV JUDITH V. OWNER Mental Health Care Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Best Software Ever!" October 9, 2025 5.0 Overall, CollaborateMD is a reliable and effective billing solution, especially for small to mid-sized healthcare practices. It simplifies claim submission and tracking, reduces billing errors, and supports faster reimbursements. Despite a few limitations, my overall experience has been positive, and it remains a solid option for managing medical billing and collections efficiently. Pros CollaborateMD offers a user-friendly interface that makes navigating billing and claim management efficient. The real-time eligibility checks, integrated clearinghouse, and detailed reporting features help streamline revenue cycle operations. I also appreciate their responsive customer support — they’re knowledgeable and usually resolve issues quickly. Cons While the system is generally efficient, certain features can feel outdated compared to newer billing platforms. Customizing reports can sometimes be time-consuming, and claim scrubbing rules occasionally require manual adjustments. Additionally, the system could benefit from more robust automation tools for recurring billing tasks. Review Source Response from CollaborateMD October 14, 2025 Thank you for your thoughtful and detailed feedback! We’re thrilled to hear that CollaborateMD’s ease of use, real-time eligibility checks, and reporting tools have helped streamline your billing operations.

Administrator Medical Practice Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Satisfied urologist" October 2, 2025 5.0 Overall I favor Collaborate MD greatly. The integration with our EMR is great. The ease of use is great. The support is very helpful. I have recommended this to other practices. Pros The system is efficient and easy to use for claims processing and payment processing. Customer support is very good. The integration with our EMR is excellent. The value for our money is excellent. Cons It has taken a bit of time to figure out how to generate reports in the specific manner that we want the reports display. Customer support has been helpful with this. Switched from [AdvancedMD Billing Services](https://www.capterra.com/p/90208/AdvancedBilling/) Cost, quality of product, EMR integration.

Your feedback helps us continue improving! -CollaborateMD KB Kern B. Owner Hospital & Health Care Used the software for: I used a free trial ### "Collaborate another word for assigning you to do their work" February 18, 2025 1.0 Terrible, no help for set up, trying to get you as a physician to call and interact with billing and credentialing software and really hindering the reimbursement of private practice. Pros The ease of set up, they made it feel like there was a comprehensive way to get started. Cons Things fell apart soon after, they assigned me tasks to get credentialed with payors and billing never returned a single dollar. Their staff is all off shore, good luck getting anything done during PST. Everything was routed to a ticket and you have to pick times that are often more than a week later. Support forwards to other “specialists” who take even longer. After trying to cancel with $0 reimbursed, they threaten to hold you to a yearly contract. After escalating to management and being told everything is sorted out, I was not surprised to get another bill for thousands of dollars. Alternatives considered [Practice Fusion](https://www.capterra.com/p/266915/Practice-Fusion/) Reason for choosing CollaborateMD Seemed better but totally ineffective and not worth it IMO Review Source MR Monet R. Physician Billing Manager Medical Practice Used the software for: 2+ years ### "A User Friendly Solution with Great Reporting" October 15, 2025 5.0 Overall, my experience with CollaborateMD has been very good. It's easy to use, simple to navigate, and makes billing quick and efficient. The reporting features are a big plus, I really like being able to create our own reports. Out of all the billing platforms I have used, I enjoy this one the most. Pros What I appreciate most about CollaborateMD is the reporting functionality. The ability to create custom reports and tailor them to our clients specific needs is especially valuable. Cons One area that could be improved in CollaborateMD is the accessibility of support. While the team is helpful, having more representatives readily available to answer question, especially during peak hour, would greatly enhance the user experience. Review Source Response from CollaborateMD October 23, 2025 Thank you for sharing your experience! We’re glad to hear you’re enjoying CollaborateMD’s customizable reporting and finding the platform easy to use for efficient billing. We appreciate your feedback about support accessibility — it’s valuable insight that helps us continue improving responsiveness during peak hours.

I was also able to add a currently client of mine to my profile extremely easy and seem less. Pros The training was phenomenal. The help line is fast and responsive, and the software is so user friendly Cons I think there may be a little too much on the tabs- I have to use the help button a lot to find things. Review Source Response from CollaborateMD May 30, 2025 Thank you for the great feedback! We’re thrilled to hear the training and support exceeded your expectations and that you’re finding the software user-friendly. We appreciate your note about the tab layout and your use of the help button — we’re always working to improve navigation and overall usability. It’s great to hear adding a client was quick and seamless. We're grateful to have you with us! — The CollaborateMD Team MD Mike D. Director of Ops Hospital & Health Care Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "CMD for Billing" May 29, 2025 4.0 I liked the onboarding process and getting set up as a user - the team was very friendly. They were helpful for us to navigate our delayed timelines. Pros The setup for billing is straightforward with adding providers, CPT codes, ICD codes and fee schedules. The way things tie together makes sense. Cons The UI and navigation is not very intuitive and it's sometimes odd to try to find the right things (e.g., trying to find a specific claim). Review Source BW Bethany W. Billing and Coding Coordinator Hospital & Health Care Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Collaborate MD" June 13, 2024 4.0 Mostly positive. This is my first experience with this type of software. I could have used more specific training. I am learning "by trial and error." I also would like more training on reports. Pros The claims creation, submission and follow-up features are my favorite part. Cons All things concerning patient statements are my least favorite feature - they are ugly and expensive. The "statement batch print" search features do not function properly when a mix of electronic and paper statements are sent to patients. Reason for choosing CollaborateMD bi-directional interface and more responsive sales person. Review Source CK Chris K. Practice Manager Hospital & Health Care Used the software for: 2+ years ### "CMD is easy to use and reliable" June 27, 2021 5.0 Pros I have used other billing softwares but CMD is easy to use and very reliable. There are add on features that can be utilized if wanted, but you don't have to pay for things you don't need. Cons It would be great to customize reports more easily. Switched from [Medisoft](https://www.capterra.com/p/163977/Medisoft/) Medisoft was too difficult to use at multiple offices. CMD is flawless since it is cloud based. Review Source EC Erin C. Owner Medical Practice Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Great product - Easy to Use!" June 24, 2021 5.0 Pros I love the easiness of using CollaborateMD. It's an easy system to learn and to teach others. Everything flows nicely from one screen to another. I also love that you can customize reports and export them into formats that can be edited for future use. Cons I wish customer service was a little more attentive and helpful. Alternatives considered [AdvancedMD EHR](https://www.capterra.com/p/114601/AdvancedEHR/) Reason for choosing CollaborateMD Ease of use. Switched from [AdvancedMD EHR](https://www.capterra.com/p/114601/AdvancedEHR/) Medware is awful and AdvancedMD is harder to use with less customizations. Review Source PS Patricia S. CEO Medical Practice Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Excellent medical billing software" June 12, 2024 5.0 Pros We have been very happy with CollaborateMD in our practice. It is somewhat complex to learn, but once you get past the initial steep learning curve, we have found the software to be reliable, well integrated with our EMR (Elation), flexible, and accurate. Also, support has been responsive. We are very happy with our choice. Cons As mentioned above, the learning curve is steep. The user interface feels like the front end for a giant relational database, and while the very large number of options create tremendous flexibility, it's easy to get lost in all the settings. Review Source Response from CollaborateMD September 18, 2024 Hi Patricia, thank you so much for your review! We're happy to hear CollaborateMD has been easy to set up an integration and has been reliable for your practice. We appreciate your feedback and thank you being a part of CollaborateMD! LC Lisa C. Billing Specialist Medical Practice Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Billing Perspective" June 11, 2024 5.0 The implementation process has been a breeze and the training has been very successful. Learning the software has been the easiest of any software that I've used currently. Pros Billing management and interfacing with other software. Cons It does not transfer daily patient payments from our Practice Fusion software. It has to be manually entered. Reason for choosing CollaborateMD The price and interfacing capabilities were the best of all choices. Review Source Response from CollaborateMD September 17, 2024 Hi Lisa, thank you so much for your review! We're happy to hear CollaborateMD’s ease of use has been a big win for you! We will pass along your notes about patient payments along to our product team. We appreciate you being a part of CollaborateMD! JB Jessica B. Executive Director Mental Health Care Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Collaborate is the best! " June 12, 2024 5.0 Pros Its easy to use and provides all the information needed for our team. Cons Maybe the cost. We are currently using CollabMD and another EMR system because of the features that we needed for regulations.

Billing Manager Hospital & Health Care Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Extremely Pleased with this product" June 29, 2021 5.0 I recommend Collaberate to anyone looking for billing software. Pros It’s simplicity. It was easy to use. Clean on the screen and not a bunch of short cuts that only went one place... Cons At the time I was using it there was no EHR feature available. Reason for choosing CollaborateMD Collaborate was recommended by a long time user and as I had used it previously it was the obvious choice Review Source LH Latosha H. Certified Surgical First Assist Medical Practice Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Satisfaction" June 10, 2024 5.0 Pros Very affordable and the software is easy to navigate. Cons I haven't found anything that I don't like about CollaborateMD. I'm very pleased thus far.

Co-owner Medical Practice Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "CMD" November 3, 2023 1.0 Pros There are some features that allow me to view claims more easily, but that's it. Cons Training was very complicated. Also if I mess up on a claim, I have no idea to go back and fix it. It used to be really hard to talk to someone, but that has changed recently. A lot of times, I couldn't figure out what was wrong with the claim, nobody could find the answer. I would finally look at my old billing software and figure out what looked different to figure out the issue. Now, when I tried to take off one user and called to do that, the person told me the wrong information. I explained this to the accounting department, and they still won't refund the extra amount I paid. It's really hard as a small business owner to pay for 2 users when I've already switched to a different billing system when I barely billed out any claims. It's absolutely ridiculous. I will not be recommending this software anyone and will definitely tell them to stay away. Reason for choosing CollaborateMD I didn't choose it. It was my only option when I switched my EMR system. Review Source AM Amy M. Owner Medical Practice Used the software for: 2+ years ### "ERA posting was down for 2 weeks! " March 23, 2023 2.0 I am using this software because it links with my EMR but would not chose to use it otherwise. Pros online billing portal for patients is somewhat helpful but not ideal Cons You cannot call customer service when system is down. Slow system repair time. ERA posting is a basic function of billing software and should never be down for more than 1-2 business days. Does not have the basic feature of storing patient's credit card number on the back end so you have to enter or swipe a credit card number for every charge. Also patient's online billing portal is very basic and it is difficult for patients to track out of pocket expenses. Review Source AK Alex K. Sr. Financial Analyst Hospital & Health Care Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Integral for Medical Billing" June 24, 2021 5.0 Overall, CollaborateMD has been integral for our primary reporting needs. Pros CMD allows report customization that is critical for analyzing medical billing, insurance collections and many other areas of our business. Cons There are very limited options for patient statements, as well as reporting on deductibles, coinsurance and copay. Customer service has also not been as helpful in certain instances. Review Source JM JOEY M. OFFICE MANAGER Used the software for: 2+ years ### "THE BEST MED SOFTWARE" June 26, 2018 5.0 Pros Collaborate is an easy to use software that is user friendly with many easy to navigate features. Many options on every reporting tab. Patient portal, demographics, financial and insurance information. This program also has auto updates that allows you to choose from the most updated icd10 codes and claim choices. Cons The customer service could use improvement. Collaborate requests that you contact customer support through a message center and sometimes with the busy work flow the instant assistance would be more beneficial. If you are working on a report for the practice and need immediate assistance, you have to place the task to the side until Collaborate contacts you via message or via a phone call. They do have a self help option that sometimes needs more assistance with a one on one customer service rep Review Source RC Renea C. Office Manager/Biller Medical Practice Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Best billing software available!" June 28, 2021 5.0 I have used CollaborateMD for over 5 years and have never thought about looking at switching since we first set up our account with them. I never have any issues and have very rarely every had to even reach out to customer service. Pros It is very straight-forward, easy to access and quickly do what is needed. Cons I wish I had more options with the statements. Review Source AH Anna H. owner Accounting Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Satisfied customer for over 15 years" June 24, 2021 5.0 My experience has been a great one for over 15 year , the software is always being enhanced and adding new features. My experience has been a golden one. Pros accessibility and pricing . you can work while on vacation , real time reporting Cons I have no complaints, as the years has gone by you have enhanced the software. Reason for choosing CollaborateMD very reasonable , user friendly Review Source WB Wayne B. Owner Hospital & Health Care Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Collaborate Review" June 24, 2021 5.0 Have no issues and Collaborate has always found a resolution to a issue and is easy to work with Pros The total ease of entering information and producing invoices and claims Cons There is no area that I have not disliked. Reason for choosing CollaborateMD Impressed with the total program functionality .
