  I am writing to bring to your attention the concerning and unethical practices of Tebra, an Electronic Health Records (EHR) company. Despite our efforts to uphold our end of the agreement, Tebra has failed to fulfill their obligations and has engaged in deceptive practices that have left us in a frustrating and unjust situation.Shortly after signing the contract for services, we encountered numerous issues with the company's services, including difficulty in accessing their products and receiving support from their team. Our attempts to communicate with Tebra were met with delays, unresponsiveness, and poor customer service.Due to the ongoing problems and lack of progress in resolving them, we made the decision to terminate our contract with Tebra during the setup grace ******* When we attempted to cancel the contract, we were informed by Tebra that they would only cancel the contract once a member of their team reached out to us, and that this process could take months. In the meantime, they insisted that we continue to pay for services that we neither received nor used.This response from Tebra is not only unacceptable but also deceptive and unfair. We have made it clear to Tebra that we no longer wish to proceed with their services due to their failure to uphold their end of the contract. It is deeply troubling that they are unwilling to honor our request to cancel the contract and are instead attempting to force us to continue paying for services that we have not and will not use.We believe that Tebra's actions constitute a breach of contract and a violation of ethical business practices. We respectfully request that the Better Business Bureau investigate this matter and take appropriate action to hold Tebra accountable for their deceptive practices. We urge the BBB to ensure that Tebra provides us with a prompt and fair resolution to this situation, including the cancellation of our contract without further delay or financial penalty.

  Thank you for making us aware of this customer's complaint. We are grateful for the feedback this customer has provided regarding our support teams, and are already using this to make improvements for the future. It should be noted that we don't have 60-day ***** periods here at Tebra. We do offer 60 days free when customers sign up for an annual contract; however, this is not a ***** or trial period.

  We have been able to facilitate cancellation of this customer's account as they requested. We are sorry Tebra was not a good fit for this customer, and wish them well in the future.

  Previously cancelled the subscription which was confirmed on 2/2024 but the agency indicated without speaking to a loyalty agent it would be continued to be charged. They had refused to cancel until i provided proof of contacting them which was done, then additional proof by email despite confirming the appropriate department and manager. Agent disconnected the call after being informed he clearly was mis-leading after verifying the multiple charges. Confirmed with TEBRA they want cancellations to be written and a meeting with their loyalty manager before going forward to retain you services. Case: ******** where it was forced to make another payment to avoid collections since i refused to meet with their loyalty manager despite contacting him and being confirmed by him 2/2024 the request was received for the 30 day notice.

  I had a contract with Tebra for my EHR for my small clinic. I have been trying to cancel the service (my contract is up but it automatically renews monthly) and they will not let me speak to a person to cancel. I have been on hold for hours for several days, also filed an online request.

  I am writing to file a formal complaint against Tebra formerly know as Kareo regarding false advertising and unfair charges. I recently engaged with Tebra based on their claims of providing certain software services, which they have failed to deliver upon. Despite their inability to fulfill their promises, Tebra is now demanding an early termination fee from me.When I initially engaged with Tebra, they assured me that they could provide the software services I needed. However, after signing up and attempting to utilize their services, it became evident that they were unable to deliver on their promises. The software functionality and capabilities they claimed to offer were simply not available.Despite my attempts to resolve the situation with Tebra, they have refused to acknowledge their failure to provide the promised services and are insisting on charging me an early termination fee. This fee is unjustified given that they did not deliver the product they advertised.I believe that Tebra's actions constitute false advertising and are unfair to consumers like myself who rely on accurate representations from companies. I respectfully request that the Better Business Bureau investigate this matter and take appropriate action to hold Tebra accountable for their deceptive practices.Thank you for your attention to this matter.

  I onboarded with Kareo/ Tebra an electronic health record/ billing platform. The process is for them to submit paperwork correctly to the insurance companies to allow the Tebra to electronically submit billing claims to the insurance company. Tebra incorrectly labeled me as having a group NPI (national provider identification). Myself and my ****** went back and forth for 8+ months and longer with tebra support and the insurance company. It discovered after aprox $4500 in lost revenue due to timing out Tebra coded me wrong group NPI vs an individual NPI that caused the issue. I also bought other Tebra partner products Patient pop that started billing hidden fees text message fee for a service I never used. I did pay for a complete 1 year subscription of this patient pop advertising ($4800). I noticed that the new referrals from this product stopped once I contested this ($84) charge. They messaged me daily saying it was overdue. I called paid the hidden $84 charge and immediately started receiving new referrals. This is extremely shady business that I can no longer tolerate. I put a request in on 4/1/24 to end my patient pop account and cancel my ********************** EHR services. As compensation they awarded me $47 because of the lost $4500 revenue because of their mistake.

  I am a nurse practitioner and a business owner. Our two clinics contracted with Tebra to use their electronic health records and practice management system. Tebra was supposed to help us to move our data from one EHR to their EHR. They promised to do this within a certain time frame. Tebra has not moved our data into the new system. We cannot see our patients previous charts since 11/23. We are now paying for two EHR systems because of this poor transition. Tebra will not answer a phone call or an email with an explanation or game plan for this data transfer. We are in limbo, paying full price for a system that is not working. According to ******, tebra has caused this problem for hundreds of clinics without the decency of an explanation or a way to move forward. The unprofessionalism is the worst I have experienced in 13 years.

  I am happy to report that the data transfer has been completed. I am still waiting for the credit for our months of service without our data. During these few months I was forced to pay for two EHR systems due to the lack of response from Tebra despite multiple attempts to contact their data transfer team.

  I was expected to look for an EMR system for our center. In speaking to a certain rep, he gave me a price that was originally do able for us. When attempting to use some of the platforms features, this specific rep stated that he did not originally quote me with tele health features. After he gave me the new quote we could no longer move forward due to being out of budget. They essentially sent me to collections due to non payment but ******* reassured me that I would not be charged. In speaking with his today 3/27/2024 he stated that I am no longer in their care, the center is in collections. The institution has been months of communication. I am very angry.

  Decemeber 2023: Met w/ Tebra sales rep and he reviewed the use of the two platforms; an electronic health records system and reputation management system, both cloud based.End of Dec 23: I signed a 1-year contract based on the sales calls and started onboarding to the platform. Jan 2024: Was informed a non-cloud based software would need to be downloaded to each computer that needed to use the billing functions. Informed Tebra staff this would not work for our clinic and we needed to discuss our contract as this was not within the product presentation. Jan-Feb 2024: Spoke with sales and customer loyalty to present the concerns. Feb 14: Was presented with an offer to pay $8,768 of the contract. I asked the offer be adjusted based on the misrepresentation. Sent multiple emails asking sales to confirm with customer loyalty that the misrepresentation had in fact taken place. Feb 23: Sent a counter offer for $1,096 and asked for the account to be closed immediately. Sent multiple emails to customer loyalty requesting update or response. No response. March 14: Received response from customer loyalty stating they were accepting my counter offer. Was informed that because an invoice for the month of march was created, I would also have to pay an additional $1,351.98. Informed customer loyalty that I had requested account to be terminated upon my offer on Feb 23rd. Customer loyalty rep stated that he would not help me any further and I would pay the money or be sent to collections. March 19: I have sent multiple emails describing the timeline and need for correction regarding the invoiced amount and received no response. I will pay the agreed upon early termination fee, but I made my counter offer prior to the invoiced date and should not be held financially responsible for their slow response. Additionally, customer loyalty was continually rude and stating, "you aren't going to get away with paying nothing", which was not what I was trying to do.
