Fred Lipson's Review Sourced from Google
We’ve been using DRG for our revenue cycle management services for the past three years, and we couldn’t be more pleased with the results. As a large dental group practice, managing billing, tracking and collecting, resubmissions, posting, and credentialing can be incredibly complex and time-consuming, but DRG has consistently streamlined the entire process for us.
Their team is professional, knowledgeable, and always quick to respond to any questions or issues we may have. What really distinguishes them is their incredible support with any unexpected projects we've faced, always ensuring we have all the necessary information to successfully complete each task.
Thanks to their support, we’ve seen a noticeable improvement throughout the entire revenue cycle. We highly recommend DRG to any dental practice looking to improve their revenue cycle management. They’ve been an invaluable partner to our team.

Dr. Kim has been using DRG's dental billing services for the past year and a half. They are truly a game-changer for our practice. We’re always in the loop and up-to-date with everything related to our billing and claims on a weekly basis.
Their turnaround time is incredibly fast—any question we have about claims gets answered within 24 hours, which helps us avoid delays and keeps operations running smoothly. What really sets DRG apart, though, is their meticulous approach to claim review before submission. They go the extra mile to ensure that every claim is properly reviewed and error-free, which has significantly reduced our claim rejections. Furthermore, any claim that gets denied will be corrected and resubmitted.
We’re beyond impressed with DRG’s professionalism and dedication to our success.

Highly highly recommend DRG. Especially if you are a patient driven practice with minimal staff. Our offices are DRG has been really helpful in the running of our two dental offices. They are really thorough and stay on top of our AR to produce the best possible results. We have gone from being incredibly involved in the insurance billing to completely hands off. Just scan and go! With monthly meetings and daily checkins with our team we are able to see how DRG works in the background to produce results from the insurance companies. Basically it has saved our team hours of time to pursue patient led goals and relationships. I was not expecting such a large team to be involved, and we are very happy with them. Each of their team members knows our team, they excute what they promise and they get the job done in about 3-4 weeks. Any questions or concerns they direct to the team and it is usually resolved within a few days.

As front desk staff at a busy clinic, working with Ali over the past couple years has been such a relief. He’s always quick to verify insurance eligibility before we schedule patients, which helps us avoid last-minute surprises and keeps everything running smoothly.
When patients come in with billing questions or issues, Ali is responsive and thorough. He gets things sorted out fast and communicates clearly so we’re not left guessing. He makes our jobs easier and helps us give patients a better experience
THANK YOU ALI! :D

He’s super prompt when it comes to checking patient eligibility, especially for sleep studies and other tests that can be time-sensitive. He always gets back to us quickly with accurate info, which makes a big difference in our workflow. Highly recommend! Ali is the best

Mushi Bhai's Review Sourced from Google
Avoid at all costs. They are great at selling you a dream during the work pitch, but the moment the contract is signed, they vanish. Getting a simple ticket resolved takes weeks to give salary To make matters worse, their billing is incredibly opaque—we were hit with several 'out-of-scope' charges for services that were supposed to be included. Save your money and find a partner who actually values communication. They have the worst management I have ever seen. I would give zero stars if possible include work is pathetic

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.
