you will be greeted by one of those automated answering services. You'll be asked a ton of questions in order to get you to the support specialist that can best help you with your problem. Just so you know, their are no front line specialists. All these people handle the same problems. The reason they make you go through this is so they can log the call into a database and keep track of the different types of problems.

Once you finally reach the front line support tech, he or she will ask you what the problem is. This is how you really know that you're not directed to anyone special or they'd already have this information. In most cases, this front line support tech will be able to solve your medical billing issue, especially if it's procedure related. But in most cases where the problem is a software error, this person is about as useful as oxygen to a dead man. The reason is because most front line support techs only know the basic operation of the software. Once they're confronted with a serious problem, they're lost. So what happens then?

The front line support tech will put you on hold and transfer you to a level two tech. This is a person who is more familiar with the problems that occur with your software. They'll usually have a manual of common error messages for each module in the system and more often than not, they'll be able to fix the problem.

Should the problem turn out to be a software programming problem, a ticket will be written up for the programmers and you'll be contacted when the fix is completed.
