Zocdoc headquartered in New York offers their medical appointment management and scheduling platform built to fill unused capacity by making it easy for nearby potential patients to book appointments on an availability basis. Additionally, Zocdoc helps practitioners gain feedback from appointments and share it online.
Valant is a great space for front office to use in a patient/medical setting. I think it's best used on a small scale than a large scale. I have found it challenging at times with multiple locations and with about 3000 patients to keep track. Valant is excellent at record keeping, and communicating with the client via the patient portal. However, due to size and limited functionality - this would be hard to maintain for a larger scale.

If was a zero on the scale I would choose. if Zocdoc charged a flat fee monthly for a referrals that would make more sense. Otherwise they are the only ones benefiting from the service. They are a total scam! do not utilize them as a referral source unless you want to lose money! Zocdoc is completely OK with tacking on innocuous and inaccurate charges. Further, they refuse to work with you on paying it. as it stands, I will be filing a complaint with a Better Business Bureau. Zocdoc has been accused of violating the anti kickback law put into place to stop such predator practice. Given that soft dock is a corporation and they have hired a team of lawyers to speak legally used to squeeze their way out of taking responsibility. They know what they're doing is wrong. They just don't care

BILLING- This is all Caps - There can be room for improvement in terms of billing efficiency
Automatic Reporting - this would be beneficial to set up or have as a feature
Billing Dashboard - to view all accounts that have matured or are outstanding
Batch Posting - be it insurances or specific patients. Even Superbills cannot be "chosen" by specific people - it's all clients with balances that are active or no balances and all charges but nothing that says you want statements for say these 20 people.
Appointment Recording - this could be more efficient versus one by one processing.

customers cancel and practice has no recourse, but must pay Zocdoc
Not enough time to verify the customer is sincere and get their paperwork in before Zoc Doc charges us
High cost of service for nurse practitioners
High rate of attrition- few customers converted to our practice compared to other methods
We were promised one rate per customer acquired, then the posted rate was increased, twice
Unable to even charge a no show fee for patients who changed at last minute
the service as set up encourages patients to bait and switch to other providers at the last minute
there is no way to limit incoming patients to your home state, so people from out of state book and then have to be notified and unbooked, creating extra work and hassle
It's very user friendly. The workspace is big, easy to read and navigate. Also, the resource knowledge base is great for when you have questions and there are several videos and guides for how to use or do something. I have had less than a year of using it and adopted it pretty quickly within the first 3 months.

if there was a rating of zero this is what I would give him. Perhaps -10? as I mentioned they are great at getting your referrals, just the wrong ones. There is no extremely process for getting the right client to the right provider. Their calendar sink does not work so they will book over the top of you frequently. They refused to work with you on a reasonable payment plan
I can't select it, but I do use psychology today. They charge a flat fee and allow you to list your profile and information on their website. I have gained many referrals from them for 1/8 of the price
Labor efficiency - this has been negative. Billing has had a lot of manual processes that unfortunately take up a lot of man hours - if this were improved, I could see a ROI that's positive
Valant has been great at certain features including the "waitlist" to capture patients and improve our chances for revenue being increased
