Zelis is a game changer. Now that we will be able to manage remittance through our EHR system, gone are the days of having to manually enter each charge into each patient account. Receiving payments through Zelis ACH+ rather than credit card means saving money and pulling EOPs from the Payments Portal means saving time.
Zelis has changed our payment process for the better. We are no longer waiting for ‘snail mail’ payments, which has improved our cash flow, and I am grateful for the consistent accessibility of data on the Zelis payment portal.
