Social Media Marketing Review from Cary Caballero
I can confidently say that Keach Assistants have greatly boosted our business. They also coordinate our appointments, call our clients, and in some cases promote our business. They provide strong support and clear all fields that allow us to concentrate on the sales and expansion of our company. The service has been splendid!

Virtual Assistant Review from Kristine Holly
Billing of medical records was a very large issue until we sought the services of Keach Assistants. Their virtual assistants have helped in our billing process in that we process the payments faster than before and with little or no errors. Im glad we are able to get this very important part of our business taken care of in such an organized manner.
Kaylee Slone Digital Marketing Manager at Authors Breeze

Business Consulting Review from Kaylee Slone
Being a completely scatty and non-tech driven "creative," I could not survive without Keach Assistants. They are calm people who can bring me down from the ceiling when I am panicked about something and who can deal with the more complicated details of my business proficiently and charmingly. It is always nice also to learn from them because they are knowledgeable in a wide range of business skills. Without a doubt, I would highly endorse their services to anybody seeking the services of a highly skilled VAs, but still offering fairly affordable prices.

Courtney Miller's Review Sourced from Google
I am the clinical director for a community-based outpatient mental health counseling center. I also oversee the agency's business operations. Our agency has struggled in past years with finding a billing vendor and lost significant revenue during that time. From the beginning of our relationship with Swagpro (2023), we have had a significant increase in billing efficiency. The Swagpro team has provided exceptional service, consistently even when they have had internal transitions. They are very responsive to any questions, typically in less than 24 hours, with friendly and knowledgeable team members. I, as an administrator who is responsible for overseeing the agency's financial sustainability, highly recommend Swagpro for medical billing services!

Swagpro has been a game changer and business saver for me. All my questions and concerns were promptly answered. I was hesitant to use a billing service due to a couple of other contracting experiences, but they have been able to fix everything without adding stress to me. Praveen Potti and his team listen, validate, and are extremely knowledgeable about billing services across medical AND mental health services. I cannot recommend them enough!

Shani Cerritos's Review Sourced from Google
I paid iSolve RCM to credential me with Medicare and Medicaid. Neither process went smoothly. I did end up getting credentialed with Medicare, but not Medicaid. There were so many complications with this process. If the person that was helping me paid attention, they would have seen that I needed to have my Medicaid credentials revalidated not fully credentialed. I was told I was credentialed and began seeing clients. When I couldn’t enter the system, I called medicaid, just to be told my credentials were suspended due to not being revalidated. I reached out to iSolve to fix this problem or get my money back. However, they did not have the knowledge on how to fix this situation, and said that there was nothing that they could do. I just took the L and credentialed myself. I’m only giving 2 stars, because the person I worked with was nice and responsive to my emails.Update: iSolve RCM worked with me to rectify the situation and I am very satisfied! They want to ensure customer satisfaction. They are professional and dedicated.

We’ve been partnering with Dastify Solutions for our mental health practice, and they have been absolutely fantastic to work with. The onboarding process was seamless, thanks to Andy Adams on the sales side he was incredibly nice, patient, and made sure all our initial questions were answered. On a day-to-day basis, Ricky, our operations manager, has been a total lifesaver. He handles all of our billing and complex mental health prior authorizations flawlessly. It’s a huge relief knowing our claims are in such capable hands. Highly recommend them!

Jesse Vaughan's Review Sourced from Google
I’ve worked with four medical billing companies over the past decade. Dastify Solutions is in a different league. Their 97.4% first-pass acceptance rate isn’t marketing — we verified it against our own EOB data. Their credentialing and provider enrollment services managed five new providers last year with zero billing gaps. On the accounts receivable management side, our days in AR dropped from 52 to 31 and collections improved over 30%. For any growing practice evaluating medical billing services, Dastify delivers the precision and compliance most RCM companies only promise.
Robert Coleman Review from Google
5.0★
Robert Coleman's Review Sourced from Google
Running a behavioral health practice with 12 providers across psychiatry and substance abuse treatment means complicated billing. We brought in Dastify Solutions for end-to-end revenue cycle management and the results were immediate. Their credentialing services got three new providers paneled in under 45 days. They restructured our charge capture, implemented real-time eligibility verification, and our net collection rate jumped from 89% to 96%. Their AR management team lets nothing fall through the cracks. Dastify doesn’t just process claims — they protect your revenue.

I am super happy I found Pixel Buddies! Before them, my business was on the verge of closing down forever! Within the first couple days they were able to see all the areas I was struggling in and go after it. Within a month, they were able to help me catch up all the past due bills, and make $3,000 more than I would have been able to on my own. If you are a business owner struggling to get your business off the ground and not sure how to get it to grow & scale up like you want… I HIGHLY Recommend Pixel Buddies!! True life savers!

Working with Myra has been such a gift. From the very beginning, she took the time to truly understand me, my vision, and the heart behind my work. She didn’t just check off tasks — she listened deeply, asked the right questions, and found my voice in a way that feels so authentic and aligned.Her creativity, attention to detail, and dedication shine through in everything she does. Whether it’s developing content, organizing my ideas, or helping bring complex projects to life, Myra approaches each task with professionalism, thoughtfulness, and care.What I appreciate most is her genuine investment in my success. She consistently goes above and beyond to make sure things not only get done, but get done beautifully. She’s patient when I get behind, quick to adapt when priorities shift, and always brings fresh ideas to the table.Myra has become more than just a VA — she’s a trusted partner who understands the bigger picture and helps me move toward it with confidence. I feel incredibly lucky to have her on my team, and I can’t wait to see all we accomplish together.

Having worked with Task Experts for a few months now, I've been really impressed with their proactive nature, communication and attitude towards doing the work right first time. They really go above and beyond to ensure that things are done in a timely manner and to a very high standard. After hiring my first VA (Max) with them to help with financial work, I now have a second VA who is doing technical work for us as well and they've both being very responsive and willing to help lighten the load for our business.

Do not use this company for their billing services. I have worked in medical billing for 20+ years and tried to work with them after taking over a office and they didn't scrub claims like they claim, that they charge for, they forgot to put modifiers on claims. Also when I sent notice to cancel the contract they messed up all of our insurance company's to which we are still recovering from. DO NOT RECOMMEND EVER! Worst billing I have ever seen.

What you pay depends on the contract structure. There are four main models:
An hourly rate involves paying for an agent’s time regardless of how many interactions they handle. It runs:
$8 to $15 offshore
$20 to $30 nearshore
$40 to $60+ onshore
Per-agent (FTE) is a flat monthly fee of $1,200 to $4,000 per dedicated agent. Predictable, but you pay the same regardless of the volume.
Per-interaction charges $1–$5 per resolved ticket or $0.50–$2 per chat. Cost-efficient when volume is low or seasonal, but bills spike during busy periods.
Outcome-based ties fees to KPIs like CSAT scores or first-call resolution — typically $3 to $9 per successful resolution.
How do I compare two BPO providers quoting similar prices?
When two BPO firms quote similar prices, the decision should come down to industry experience, agent attrition rates, SLA terms with defined remedies, and how each vendor handles your specific exception cases, not the headline rate.
Ask for case studies from clients in your industry. A BPO company with relevant experience can start right away, while one without it will learn on your dime.
Then go beyond the deck. Give both vendors your two or three most complex support scenarios and ask them to walk you through exactly how they’d handle each one. The vendor with a documented protocol beats the one that says, “We’d escalate.”
Pay close attention to SLA clauses, specifically what happens when they’re missed, not just what the targets are. Two vendors can quote identical SLAs but differ completely on the consequences for missing them.
Finally, ask for the agent attrition rate for the specific team being proposed, not the company average. High turnover on your account means constant retraining and inconsistent service, regardless of the price.
What contract terms do most buyers accept that they shouldn’t?
The contract terms most buyers accept are auto-renewal clauses with short notice windows, SLAs with no financial remedy for misses, and IP clauses that leave process documentation owned by the vendor — all of which remove your leverage once performance drops.
Four terms worth pushing back on before you sign:
Auto-renewal clauses can trap you into a long-term agreement if the notice window is short, often 60–90 days. Miss the window, and you’re locked in for another year regardless of performance.
SLAs without consequences. Most contracts define targets but don’t specify what happens when they’re missed. Your agreement should define redressal terms, whether that’s service credits, payment for damages, or the right to exit early.
IP and process documentation ownership. Avoid clauses that grant the BPO provider exclusive rights to your intellectual property, or that allow them to sublicense or transfer it to third parties. If they own the runbooks built on your processes, switching vendors gets expensive.
Exit and termination terms need to include your ability to re-employ key personnel who hold critical knowledge of your account; otherwise, that knowledge walks out with the vendor.
The simplest check: read the contract assuming performance will eventually disappoint. If you have no leverage when that happens, negotiate before you sign.
How do BPO companies handle a sudden surge in volume?
BPO companies handle volume surges through a combination of flexible staffing, automation, and cross-trained overflow teams, but how well they execute depends entirely on what your contract says about surge capacity before it happens.
Most BPO providers have a few ways to handle sudden spikes:
Bringing in temporary agents
Moving staff from quieter channels to busier ones
Using chatbots or self-service tools to handle routine questions before they reach a human. Self-service tools can deflect 20-40% of contacts during a surge.
But not every BPO provider handles this well. When surges go unmanaged, call abandonment rates can reach 15%, which means frustrated customers and damage to your brand, not the vendor’s.
The right time to ask about this is before you sign. Find out how much notice your BPO company needs to scale up, and what the contract says about volume above your agreed tier.
A vendor who can staff up fast but delivers off-brand service during your busiest period is a liability, not a solution.
