I have been unable to process any claims as a health care provider for the past 7 days.I have been told by the company I use for billing **************** that they have been in contact with Office Ally. They have been unable thus far to get Office Ally to recognize that they are having a problem with their systemBusiness Response
Date: 12/31/2024
Thank you for contacting Office Ally regarding the processing issue with your claims. After reviewing the details of your inquiry and our conversation on December 23rd, we are pleased to confirm that the issue has been resolved. The problem stemmed from an invalid payer ID qualifier in loop 2010BB NM108, where the qualifier "XV" was being submitted instead of the correct qualifier "PI". This discrepancy led to claim rejections. As of December 29th, your software has corrected the qualifier to "PI", allowing the claims to process successfully. A clean claim was submitted on this date and has been forwarded to the insurance company.Customer Answer

I signed up for a free account to check out their services. I have not used their service. Now all of sudden Im being billed for a service I dont use (and thought was free), and they have made it impossible to cancel.Business Response
Date: 12/23/2024
Upon review, it was determined that the customers original cancellation request in November, if processed correctly, would have avoided charges for December and January. The account has been adjusted to remove these charges. A Client Support leadership team member is actively reaching out to provide a detailed explanation of the services, fees, and where this information is available in our product data sheets. The team will continue working with the customer to ensure all concerns are resolved promptly.Initial Complaint

On November 1st, I sent my final complaint via email about ongoing issues with claims that are appearing as "passed/accepted" when Imagine360, has repeatedly said that they are not receiving any of my electronic claims from Office Ally. This has been an ongoing issue with the payor Imagine360 since March of 2024. Enclosed is my third to last emails to customer support dated September. ******** finally responded and set up a time for a call, that I missed due to an emergency.Supervisor ******** contacted me on 9/13/24 once and left a voicemail, while I was in the middle of an emergency, and I never heard back from anyone again after his missed call.I will no longer wait for ******** or any other representative to finally resolve this issue and reimburse me for over 8 months of failing to offer a program that works as your market it. Office Ally owes me not only an apology for 8 months of delays in finalizing this major issue with a long-time customer, but a credit for every ********** claim that has failed along with partial compensation for the monthly charges that you have charged me for having to resort to printing all Imagine360 claims. If your company is not adamant in resolving this issue by the end of November, you will be pushing me to resort to further legal options and discussing this with both colleagues and ********** are the all the claims in question with ************************************ dates 10/10/24-10/31/24 ********** service dates 10/2/24-10/3/24 ********** service dates 9/5/24-9/19/24 ********** service dates 7/18/24- 9/4/24 ********** service date 7/11/24 ********** service dates 5/14/24 - 7/1/24 ********** service dates 6/6/24 - 6/13/24 ********** service dates 4/25/24 - 5/29/24 ********** service dates 4/5/24 - 4/10/24 ********** service dates 3/7/24 - 3/14/24Business Response

I signed up for a $0 plan for Office Ally to send my billing to Blue Shield of **************** I received a bill for $50 for their service.Their website contains fine print that states that the customer may be charged $39.95 if the insurance company they are billing to is "non Par". It is very difficult to find this "Non Par" list...when I finally did, I typed in Blue Shield of ********** and it only has dental billing listed thus I assumed that Blue Shield if California is not a "Non Par". Also I should add that Blue Shield's website sent me to the Office Ally website - so I assumed they were participating.The office Ally website is therefore not clear enough and should be revamped so as not to confuse and/or mislead potential customers. The also did not mention that there was a $10 add on for client eligibility...this was definitely a sneaky add on that I never consented to.Business Response

I am a healthcare practitioner that uses Office Ally to process my insurance claims. I was double charged for service the month of February 2024. This duplicate charge has resulted in my account being disabled for owing a mere $39.95. I pay my bills and have been using their service since 2012. Over the last 6 months, I have spent at least 4 hours in multiple phone calls to discuss this issue. Disabling my account for their accounting mistake disrupts the flow of business and impacts patient care. I am considering discontinuing serving as a ******** provider since the system seems to punish providers that bill more ******** claims than private insurance claims. I would like the duplicate charge for February to be removed and my account to be opened again.Business Response
Date: 10/07/2024
Following a thorough investigation, we confirmed that a member of our Support leadership team has been in direct communication to review best practices and ensure a sound understanding of the correct processes when using our tools. Additionally, we provided a detailed explanation of our pricing structure and offered guidance on how to avoid unnecessary fees. We have also verified that the payment for the most recent invoice has been received and properly applied to the customers account, which is now active and ready for continued use. Should the any additional assistance be needed, our team remains available to support.Customer Answer

Complaint: 22349179
I am rejecting this response because: As I mentioned in my original statement I have spent hours on the phone working to understand what happened. Yes, they did explain some things to me after the additional fee for the month of February was charged. However, I reject the statement "we provided a detailed explanation of our pricing structure" because I do not recall ever being informed that a sole practitioner could get double charged for a month of service. As a customer since 2012 I never knew that it was possible that I would have gotten double charged for a month of service until the fee ended up on my billing statement.

Office Ally asked me to purchase EchoStar for the *** product we have in order to be able to prescribe medications. We waited for the "key" card to ship and then to train on the system. We paid $125 and that never happened. We have tried to get a refund several times and have been unsuccessful.Business Response
Date: 08/28/2024
After reviewing this concern, we found that the payment in question was made to the company responsible for managing the e-prescription service. As such, any credit or refund would need to be issued directly by them. To assist, we have assigned this to a member of our Client Support leadership team, who is working directly with the vendor to facilitate the requested refund. As of August 28th, we have been in direct contact with the vendor, and they have agreed to refund the payment. We are in direct contact with the customer to assist in this transaction.Initial Complaint

I am writing to warn others and request program glitches to be fixed. I have filed complaints, opened tickets for years now on several issues with the program. If it wasn't so difficult to change EHR's I would have done so several years ago. It feels as though the staff is untrained and do not have much ability any changes so it feels as though my concerns are falling on deaf ears. My concerns relate patient safety- **-rx requests (where pharmacy send refill requests) in box only shows ***************************************************************** and because the box only show 104 there are many I can't see what the requests are therefore leaving these patient unable to get their refills until we clear out the box which may take several days. This is a patient safety issue. Second major complaint is that when the progress note auto saves it close the sections on the progress and take your cursor to the bottom of the page then you have to go back and find where you are in the note which disrupts the flow of the patient interview. Overall, I only am looking to have these major patient safety and patient interview flow disruptions to be fixed. Hopefully I get a satisfactory response and not a response that feels my concerns are not taken seriously as I feel they have been done over the last several years. I spend thousands of dollars per month with officeally as being a mgt consultant I have enrolled multiple providers before I became a medical professional. Now that I am using it as a medical professional I see the concerns my colleagues have been complaining to me about. Since the ** was sold there has been a lot of development to improve sales although if the desire is to really grow there business they should take care of the customers concerns and not just dismiss them. If I would have just signed up, I would be changing.Business Response

Was forced to use Office Ally (OA) due to the Change Healthcare breach NO WHERE ON THE **** DID IT STATE THAT I WOULD BE CHARGED ***** I did 1 search to compare OA to the free site from the State of Illinois for eligibility lookup. 4/12/24 - called - no answer --- sent email case # ******** 5/15/24 - receive update on case # ******** from OA- stating that I am being billed for using the eligibility check tool. -- $***** -- sent response email 5/16/24 5/31/24 - receive invoice for $39.95 for non part. claims (??)6/3/24 - Talked to *** - new case # ******** -- *** said it was a "possibility" that I would get a refund to check back in a few days - I received no refund and MY ACCOUNT WAS LOCKED!6/20/24 - Talked to ****** -- he said no new updates - that the person it was sent to was not in office and it would be sent to someone else - and I should get an email back in 48 hours -- did not receive an email.

On July 23rd around 1 pm, started receiving emails from user on my team that **************** was down and the whole company came to stop. Their web site did not indicate a notice of service down or outage. Furthermore I have been in the phone for more than 35 minutes without luck to talk to anyone. Their error says that the app has become so popular that it exceeded the global rate. I have been a customer of **************** for years and I cant comprehend how they made my life easier. It is impossible to trust a company that fails to properly communicate with its clients. I received no texts, email or even a notice on their web site Not mentioning the consequences of these outages that take hours. It cost money to Office Ally clients ,the least Office ally can do is to provide a credit to affected clients. Bad service.Business Response

Feb 7, 2024,Online Payment *********** To office ally 02/07Bill payment-$10.00 Account ******** I am outraged and disgusted by my experience with Office Ally. This company is nothing short of a scam and should be shut down.For six long, frustrating months, I've desperately tried to cancel my account with these crooks. Despite countless phone calls, emails, and even supposed confirmations from their "client support supervisor," they continued to send me invoices that I paid on Feb 7, 2024Online Payment *********** To office ally 02/07Bill payment-$10.00 Their customer service is non-existent - I've wasted hours of my life on hold only to be given the runaround or empty promises.Even after I finally got through to someone and completed all the cancellation paperwork, they had the audacity to charge me AGAIN over two weeks after my account was supposedly cancelled. This is blatant theft, plain and simple.The level of incompetence and dishonesty from Office Ally is staggering. They clearly have no respect for their customers or basic business ethics. Their practices are predatory and potentially illegal. I will filed complaints with the Better Business Bureau and my state's attorney general, and I urge everyone to avoid this company like the plague.If you're considering using Office Ally, DON'T. Run far away and never look back. They will drain your time, energy, and bank account with their shady billing practices and abysmal customer service. I've never dealt with a more frustrating or unethical company in my life. Office Ally is an absolute disgrace and deserves to go out of business for how they treat their customers.Business Response

Thank you for bringing this issue to our attention. Your account was disabled on January 30, 2024. The outstanding invoice for the three patient eligibility lookups conducted in January has been resolved, leaving no balance due. Consequently, you will not receive any future invoices. We did, however, receive your check in February for the December patient eligibility lookups, which were successfully processed. This payment was the only one due and has already been paid.
