About Anagram
Anagram, formerly Patch, is an online insurance benefit management platform built to help healthcare providers such as eye care, physical therapy, mental health, chiropractic care, and other professionals to understand and use their patient’s out-of-network healthcare plans and insurance benefits. Anagram enables healthcare professionals let their patients know the exact reimbursement amount to expect, and submit a claim online on their behalf.
Anagram's complete universal insurance benefit platform helps healthcare providers to increase their patient base, allowing professionals to leverage out-of-network insurance benefits and avoid in-network constraints. Healthcare providers are able to retrieve their patient’s coverage information in real time, regardless of their insurance network, allowing patients to understand their benefits at the point-of-service. Exact reimbursements specific to every patient’s plans are automatically calculated and outlined with detailed information on all services and/or items they are purchasing or receiving. Healthcare professionals can file claims for patients online on their behalf, and shortly thereafter, patients will receive their reimbursement checks.
Anagram's capabilities for digital claiming allow organizations to eliminate superbills or handwritten paperwork, printing and mailing, and helps to cut down on claim errors and typos. All online claims are insurance carrier standard and compliant, and the Patch platform is fully HIPAA compliant, including bank-level SLL security.

Pros
This product helps me competer for VSP patients since our practice is out of network. We would not be as successful if it wasn't for this product.
Cons

We are very happy with Patch and we are in our second year of using them. Submitting OON claims as an open access provider for the patient is a no brainer, because it's less work for the patient than having them fill out their own OON claim forms. When we give the patient our normal retail price of glasses, and then the total they pay with our own discounts and their OON allowances, we rarely get any pushback on them purchasing eyewear. I would say the pushback is less than 10%. Patch pays for itself in only a few OON patients.
Pros
Our practice uses Patch to obtain out of network benefits so that our patients have the freedom to keep us as a provider even though we are not in their network. Being an open access provider is so easy! We use much less staff time working on VSP claims AND we generate more income for the practice per patient. By offering discounts to the patient and accepting assignment (payments) from VSP directly, we are still able to offer great value while at the same time offer premium optical products and services. Also, submitting claims is much easier than submitting claims in network with VSP.
Cons
VSP sometimes makes it difficult for Patch to find the benefits of a patient. But Patch has a direct message system that allows them to look into any problems or discrepancies right away if the benefits don't come up automatically (which they usually do). Even though it make take some time to find benefits for a patient, Patch is there every step of the way letting us know what the status is.

Terrible customer service. Took 3 weeks to get back to me. Never follows up. This customer service was only good when they wanted to make a sale. Don't get fooled!
Pros
I tried Patch for a month. The website is always down. If not then you are left messaging back and forth with their operators with no results. It was a good sell but a worthless service. I made the mistake of buying a year's service but when I realized it was worthless I offered to pay them 2-3 months but to get a partial refund. They refused. Therefore I don't want other doctors or practices to make my same mistake. It is just a an expensive lesson in futility. Don't wast your time or money!
Cons
All of it! It not worthy your time, your staff's time, your patient's time and definitely not your money!

A Must Have for ALL Opticians !!

Overall: A +++++++++++
Pros
Patch is great! I highly recommend using it!!
- The platform is easy to use the the support team is very friendly and helpful!!
- Patch can help finalize the sale! We've been in business since 1952 and we never had to worry about Insurances back in the day, Now, Insurance is the norm and Patch is a game changer that allows us to compete with the chain stores. Everyone wants their "FREE Pair" of eyewear. Patch allows us to sell quality eyewear and help patients get the most out of their out of network insurance benefits.
Cons
Plugging in a patient's information is a little different for each Insurance Carrier.
Example: Sometimes you need the Member ID, sometimes S.S. is the only thing that's needed besides other basic information.
- We do a lot of eyewear for kids and we are finding a lot of solo plans only for children.
Which is tough to then find their benefits because we always need the primary first.

MORE FREE TIME out of the office and no cut in per patient exam fees verses being IN NETWORK and agreeing to a major reduction in fee just to belong as a provider.
Pros
This software allows me to file insurance claims for most Out of Network vision plans, while also allowing me to receive my full exam price for a comprehensive eye exam without compromising the value, and it's as easy to understand that even my 12 year old can file claims for me! EASE OF USE for the non-technical individual is KEY to keeping my workload down and my free time out of the office at a maximum.
Cons
There are insurance plans that do need a member ID number to obtain benefits, and there are some vision plans that do not regularly distribute ID cards with their members, making it more difficult for the staff AND patient to obtain benefits and file seamlessly. It would be great to only have to use the last 4 digits of the member's social security number like some plans allow.
