Apex EDI (Ensora) Password Update Email

Thanks for reaching out. When you submit a claim or check eligibility in CounselEAR, the system "logs in" to Apex EDI (now Ensora) the same as if you are going to the website. If the login information is incorrect or missing, then it counts as a bad attempt. Too many bad attempts will lock you out. An incorrect login will also cause your claim submissions to fail.

The trick is that ALL users and ALL locations need to have the credentials in place - even if that User never submits a claim or is a Provider on the claim. It's a quirk with how Apex EDI talks to CounselEAR.

Here are instructions on how to make sure that your Apex EDI credentials are showing for all Users and Locations in CounselEAR. Keep this handy, since Apex EDI is requiring password updates every 90 days.

Important: Before you follow these steps, you must make sure that the password you are entering is correct. Login to the Apex EDI website with the password. If it does not work, reset it with them first. If your account is locked, then follow the steps on Apex's site to unlock. Once you are sure that your password works on Apex's site, then you can proceed.

Another note: When updating your password it cannot be too similar to the old one or one used before. Apex will make it seem as if the new password works but then lock you out again if the passwords are not different enough!

 Instructions to Update the Apex password in CounselEAR:
- Click Administration
- Then User List
- Edit any User (We are going to update everyone in one go, so it does not matter who you choose)
- Click the Advanced Settings Tab and then [Settings] next to Apex EDI
- Update the password for the first location in the drop down
- Before doing anything else, change the location in the drop down to your next location and update the password there.
- Repeat for all locations if needed.
 If the Apex EDI User Name is different for a location, then make sure it is the correct login and password before proceeding.
- Now, check the Shared Credentials box (This is what will update all Users in your CounselEAR account in one go.)
- Close the window and remember to click Save

Here is a screenshot of the update window so that you can see where we are referencing:

Please, let us know if you have any questions. Hope you have a great day!

CE Login Security

Best practice is to change your passwords for your CounselEAR login every so often. We have a setting that forces a Password change at a set interval. The default is 180 days, but you can set it as early as every 30 days. You might want to also consider a Password Manager like 1Password, (though there are many others as well). CounselEAR offers a MultiFactor Authentication option as well as IP White Listing:

Multi Factor Authentication:
In order to use this, you must have the Google Authenticator App on your mobile device. This is the only Authenticator App that will work!
When setup, you will need to enter a code from that app after entering your password. Since the code is tied to a specific mobile device, no one else would be able to find the same code. Here is how to set that up for you and your Staff:
  • Click Administration then User List
  • Edit the User and go to the Security Tab
  • Check the Multi-Factor Authentication box at the bottom
  • Once checked you will see [Instructions] to the right
    • If setting up for yourself: Open your Authenticator App and choose to add a new site
      • It will have you scan a QR code. Click Instructions in CounselEAR and scan the QR code that appears. Then Save on the User List page to lock in the changes.
    • If setting up for another User, just hit Save, they will get an email with instructions!
IP Whitelisting:
This is a way to block anyone who is not using set IP addresses from logging into CounselEAR. Contact your IT or Internet Provider to assist with what to enter in. Here is where to find that setting:
  • Click Administration then IP White List under Clinins at the top left
  • If you don't see this option, that means you don't have the access to view it. Your Clinic Admin would need to set that up.
Please, let us know if you have any other questions. Hope that you have a great day!

Email Bounce DKIM DNS - Needs Domain



Emails sent through CounselEAR (manual or automated) use our Amazon cloud as the email provider and your xxxxxxxx@xxx.com address as the Reply-To address on those emails. Using a common @gmail, @yahoo, @aol, etc account makes it difficult to gain trust by receiving systems (i.e. they are trying to help prevent spam/junk mail from entering their system). By completing the steps below CounselEAR can help your emails from being "quarantined". 
  1. Create an email domain address - for example, SomeName@xxxxxxx.com
  2. Email us when this is done with the new Domain address, and CounselEAR can start the configuration (DKIM) process of your xxxxxxxxx.com. domain.
  3. Once completed, CounselEAR will send you the DKIM configuration settings.
  4. You can then use the configuration settings to update your domain's DNS settings to complete the DKIM setup process. You will likely have to work with your hosting provider or a technical resource to get these settings in place. Once these settings are in place your xxxxxxxxx.com domain becomes Verified.
  5. Set this new email address in the Clinic Administration screen (see Image 1 below)
After these steps are complete, emails sent through CounselEAR will automatically apply a digital signature that the receiving email providers can use to verify an email is authentic and hasn't been changed in transit. This greatly increases the inbox success rate of the emails you are sending through CounselEAR to clients or with other systems you interact.

Email Bounce DKIM DNS with Domain

Hi there!

Your emails sent through CounselEAR (manual or automated) use our Amazon cloud as the email provider and your xxxxxxxx@[PUT CLINIC'S DOMAIN HERE] address as the Reply-To address on those emails.  Some Internet Providers are adding extra security to combat spam messages, and they will look at things like how many messages have been sent out in a certain time period, etc. We have been advised of a way to tag your emails as coming from a real place. By completing the steps below CounselEAR can help your emails from being "quarantined". 
  1. First, confirm that the email domain in your Clinic List settings is the domain that you want to connect: [PUT CLINC'S DOMAIN HERE]
  2. Once you confirm here, CounselEAR can start the configuration (DKIM) process of your domain. CounselEAR will send you the DKIM configuration settings which you can pass along to your domain hosting company or trusted IT provider to assist with the next steps.
  3. Your domain host or IT professional can use these configuration settings to update your domain's DNS settings to complete the DKIM setup process. Once these settings are in place your xxxxxxxxx.com domain becomes Verified.
After these steps are complete, emails sent through CounselEAR will automatically apply a digital signature that the receiving email providers can use to verify an email is authentic and hasn't been changed in transit. This greatly increases the inbox success rate of the emails you are sending through CounselEAR to clients or with other systems you interact.

Email Security Link Not Working

Thanks for reaching out regarding our new email security feature. Sorry that your recipients are having issues. We have tested the examples and were able to access the email link.

Here are some troubleshooting tips:
  • When the patient or provider are entering the name or access code, make sure there are no leading or ending spaces. This can especially happen if they are using a mobile phone. Many phone keyboard programs add a space after a word to save time when typing
  • Make sure to use MM/DD/YYYY format when typing in the DOB. A calendar should pop up when they start typing so that they can click into the correct date.
  • On your end, make sure the Patient's last name does not have any leading or ending spaces in the CounselEAR field itself.
We are also working on a way to have our system ignore any leading or ending spaces when the patient types in the their responses for a future update. For now, please make sure that your patients and receiving providers are not putting spaces into the field when they type.

Let us know if you have any questions. Hope you have a great day!

Insight Setup Request Template

Name of Category
  • This is the name of the gray bar you will click to access the templates. Make it something that makes sense to you.
  • Make sure you let me know where you want it to appear in the order. I will put a number at the beginning to place it properly.
Name of Template
  • This is the name of the Template Line. You can make this detailed (i.e. what it will say when clicked) or general (whatever makes sense to you so you know which to click for the situation).
  • Note: If you want one template to be the Header (i.e. the bolded section name like Complaint then note that for me, too. I will put it top of order in the category.
What you want to happen when the Template is clicked:
  • I will need what you want things to say when clicked exactly how you want it to appear
    • If the Template exists already, you can just say "History Template [Name of Template] will appear in History". No need to retype anything unless you need it to say something different!
  • If you want multiple Templates to appear in one click, that can happen as well. This can be more than one in a section and/or Templates in multiple sections, (History, Chart Note, Results, etc).
Once we receive the above, templates will be created within 7-10 business days. We'll be sure to reach out with any questions during that time, if something is not clear.

Noah Cloud Errors Email

Hello!

Thanks for reaching out. Due to an increase in demand for Noah and Noah Cloud related assistance, we have streamlined our process so that we can better help all of our clinics in the most efficient and effective way. We would be happy to call you to help with your Noah Cloud install/issues. Before we do, please take the following steps:

  • Do not install any Noah modules.
  • Make sure that your Windows is completely up to date. If it is not updated, then the installation will not complete properly. This is especially true for new laptops in our experience!
    • In your computer search bar type "Update"
    • Click to go to the System Update control panel
    • The screen will say that you are up to date, ignore thatand click the Check for Updates button
      • If after that, it says you're up to date, then you are set and can move on to the next set of steps
      • If there are updates pending, please make sure that all updates are installed before we assist. Click Check for Updates again after the install to be sure, as some updates need to happen before new ones will show up as ready.
  • If you are not allowed to download or install programs onto your computer, please make sure that you schedule a time where your IT group or System Administrator is available, as we might need to install programs onto your system to troubleshoot.
  • You will also need to be able to disable your Antivirus during the call.
Once you have completed and confirmed all of the above, please click here to schedule with our team. Our team can perform a screenshare to install and troubleshoot where needed.




Noah Cloud Update/Install - No Errors


BEFORE DOWNLOADING NOAH:

Type "Update" in the Windows search bar and click the CHECK FOR UPDATES button even if it says you're up to date. After each update and restart, click the CHECK FOR UPDATES box again until no more updates show pending. If this is not done, it can cause issues with the Noah Installation process.
  • Please make sure that any Antivirus is disabled when performing the installation, including Windows Defender. You might have more than one Anti Virus, including on your browser. This will also cause issues where not all files will install properly.
Once you have done the above, please follow these steps:

Hi, 

Thanks for reaching out. To integrate your CounselEAR and QuickBooks Online accounts we'll need to schedule 2 calls. The first call (30 minutes) is primarily informational, and will give you an understanding of how the sync works, as well as what is required to set it up. On the second call (60 minutes), we'll map the two accounts and then begin syncing your data. Please use this link to schedule your first call: https://calendly.com/lucky-counselear/quickbooks-related-q-a

Best regards,





Registration: New User

I see you've recently signed up for a Free Trial of CounselEAR. According to our records, there is already an existing account for your institution. Are you a new user associated with this clinic? If so, you should create a user profile within the existing account rather than starting a new trial (instructions below). If this is not the case, please let me know how I can assist you.

If you are needing to create a New User profile in an established CounselEAR account, ask your Clinic Administrator to go to:
Administration>
User List>
Actions dropdown at the top right>

Moving from QBD to QBO


Thanks for reaching out. Yes, there are quite a few differences between QBD and QBO. For users switching from QBD to QBO it's important to know that QBO is not HIPAA compliant. We're still able to integrate with QBO, but we remove PHI from the records. For this reason, if you choose to move your existing QBD data into QBO you'd likely want to remove patient identifying information from the records, or choose not to bring in your QBD data into the QBO account (more details below). Have you already transferred your QBD data into your new QBO account? Please review the information below, and let me know what questions you may have.

QuickBooks Online Overview:

Our integration happens on both the Invoice and Payment level. Any invoice or payment recorded in CounselEAR can be brought over into QBO, reducing double entry. CounselEAR does not send over stock/inventory information over to QBO, nor do we store or sync Vendor bills or receipts

Because QBO is NOT HIPAA compliant, when integrating CounselEAR will not sync any patient specific information (like first name, last name, DOB, address etc.). Instead of a patient name, the record in QBO will show an ID number which will be assigned to every patient in CounselEAR.  Like this:

Because information coming into QBO is stripped of PHI, your newer data coming into QBO will not match up to the previous record from your time using QBD. Ex: If you have patient Joe Smith, in QBD his record says his name. In QBO, his record will show his patient ID number. There is not a way that we are aware of to match the two records. This means that if you choose to important your previous data from QBD into QBO, for 1 patient you will have 2 entries--one from QBD with older financial records, and the other from QBO with the newer financial records. 

The sync runs automatically roughly every 6 hours, and only invoices and payments with their status marked as Ready are synced to QBO. In your CounselEAR clinic administration menu, you can specify whether or not invoices and payments should be listed as Ready by default. If you do not turn on this automation, your invoices and payments will default to Not Ready, and you'll need to manually set invoices and payments to Ready when you'd like them to sync.

There is a required 60 minute small set up process during which we will help you map several areas of your two accounts, specifically line item types, payment methods, and taxes (if applicable).

The QuickBooks/Xero Sync - Failed widget on the Dashboard is specifically designed to catch all the transactions that have failed to sync, as well as the reason that they fail.  You can use this widget to view and reprocess sync failures.

If you decide to move forward with the integration, please use this link to block a 1 hour slot for the set up process.

Please let me know if you have any further questions at the moment.




QB Question : How to handle diff Tax rates on a same invoice when syncing to QB

Hello,

I'm following up with you regarding your question and can provide some additional clarification regarding the tax rates.

I see that you have more than one tax rates saved under Administration > Invoices > Tax rate:

When syncing over to QuickBooks, the tax rate saved on the invoice>invoice info tab takes precedence over the tax rate saved on the individual line items.

You also asked what happens if there are items with different tax rates in a single invoice. In that case, you will want to mark the invoice as tax exempt. When you do that, when syncing, the system will look at the individual item tax rate. This will then show the specific tax rate saved for every item when carried over to QBs.

Please try this approach next time. Let me know if you have any further questions.

Thank you,


QBD error : There is a missing element: "TxnID"


Thank you for reaching out and yes, I do see that you have some failed payments.
They are mostly for this error : There is a missing element: "TxnID"
That means the payment can't find the invoice. You can attempt to sync both the Invoice and the payment together to see if they sync over.
This error is commonly seen with new clinics where a new payment is added to an older invoice,  before the sync cut off date.
Solution : You can manually enter these payments to your QBs and please remember to mark these failed payments as POSTED or EXCLUDE  in CounselEAR and clear out the failed entries.
The reason for this is that every time you run a sync, it will attempt to resync all the failed invoices over and over, and you will end up with an ugly long invoice history of attempted to sync and failed.

Please let me know if you have any further questions
Thank you 





QBD: How to reconnect my QBD?

Hello,

I understand you need assistance with reconnecting your QuickBooks Desktop account and I'm happy to guide you through the process.

Here are the general steps to reconnect using the QBD Web Connector:

1. Go to Help in the toolbar at the top in CounselEAR.
2. Navigate to File Downloads: QuickBooks Web Connection Configuration File : QuickBooks Web Connection Configuration File  
3. Select the location and click the word "download" to connect.
4. Before connecting, please ensure you are signed in and opened your QuickBooks Desktop account on the same computer.
5. Once the web connector appears in QuickBooks, you'll be prompted to enter and save your CounselEAR password.
6. After completing these steps, you should be able to run the sync.

If you see an outdated web connector from a previous connection, you can remove it by clicking the "remove" button.

If you'd prefer a more guided approach, you're welcome to schedule a call with us, and we can walk through these steps together.

Thank you,

QBO Introduction


Welcome aboard! I'm happy to provide you with some information about how the integration between CounselEAR and QuickBooks Online (QBO) works.

Integration Details
Our integration operates on both the Invoice and Payment levels. This means that any invoice or payment recorded in CounselEAR can be transferred into QBO. Please note that CounselEAR does not send stock/inventory information to QBO, nor do we store or sync Vendor bills or receipts.

HIPAA Compliance and Patient Data
Because QBO is not HIPAA compliant, CounselEAR will not sync any patient-specific information (such as first name, last name, DOB, address, etc.) during the integration process. Instead of a patient's name, the record in QBO will display an ID number that will be assigned to each patient in CounselEAR.
  Like this:

Sync Frequency and Automation
The sync between CounselEAR and QBO runs automatically approximately every 6 hours. Only invoices and payments with their status marked as "Ready" are synced. You can specify whether invoices and payments should be listed as "Ready" by default in your CounselEAR clinic Administration menu. If you choose not to enable this automation, your invoices and payments will default to "Not Ready," and you'll need to manually set them to "Ready" when you want them to sync.

Sync Failure Widget
The "QuickBooks/Xero Sync - Failed" widget on the Dashboard is designed to capture any transactions that have failed to sync, along with the reason for the failure. You can use this widget to view and reprocess sync failures.

Setup Process
There is a required 60-minute setup process during which we will assist you in mapping several areas of your CounselEAR and QBO accounts. This includes line item types, payment methods, and taxes (if applicable).As a best practice, we recommend initiating the integration only after we have converted and brought over all the information into your CounselEAR account. 

Past Dated Invoice Sync 
To ease the transition, CounselEAR can sync past dated invoices to QBO, allowing your clinic to avoid rushing into the integration process at the start of your subscription. We offer the flexibility to sync up to a month's worth of invoices or approximately 100 invoices, depending on your preference.

If you decide to move forward with the integration or would like to discuss any questions prior to going ahead with the integration please use the link to schedule a call.

QuickBooks Desktop integration info

Thank you for reaching out and I'd be happy to provide some basic information about how our integration with QuickBooks  Desktop works.

Key Points about the Integration 
  •  Invoice and Payment Level Sync - CounselEAR syncs invoices and payments with QBD. Stock/inventory information, vendor bills, and receipts are not stored or synced
  • RefundsRefunds issued in CounselEAR do not automatically sync to QuickBooks Desktop (QBD). You will need to manually enter refunds in QBD whenever they are issued in CounselEAR. 
  • Adjustments - Adjustments applied to line items in CounselEAR go over to QBD as credit memos, which need to be assigned manually in QBD
  • Manual Sync -  The synchronization process is manual. It is recommended to set aside a specific day and time, once or twice a week (depending on the number of invoices generated), to run the sync. During this process, all invoices and payments with a "Ready" status will be merged into QuickBooks.
  • Error Tracking widgetThe "QuickBooks/Xero Sync - Failed((A listing of all CounselEAR invoices that failed to synchronize with QuickBooks.) " widget on your Dashboard will display any failed transactions and the reasons for failure, allowing you to reprocess them. We highly recommend that you resolve the failed to sync invoices before you run the next sync.
  • Past Dated Invoice Sync - CounselEAR can sync past dated invoices to QBD, giving you more flexibility.
  • Setup ProcessThere is a small set up process that is high required where we will help you with setting up the mapping of the line items between the two systems and other areas like taxes (if applicable).We require a total of 2 calls for the entire set up process. First would be a half hr and the following would be a 1 hr call where we push the first sync.

When you are ready to integrate your CounselEAR with QBD, the next step would be to schedule a half hour appointment and during this call we can set up the following call

Please let me know if you have any further questions at the moment.

Xero : Why are my Refunds not syncing over to Xero?

Hello,
I understand that you are attempting to add a refund that needs to sync to Xero. For refunds to sync successfully, the system requires a Return/Exchange or Cancelled item under Line items. In this particular scenario, where there has been an overpayment rather than a cancellation or return, the workaround is slightly different. I'd be happy to provide you with step-by-step instructions on how to handle this specific case.

To ensure the refund syncs, please follow these steps:
1. Open the invoice.
2. Go to the Line item tab.
3. Start a new line item.
4. Select type like service or Fee and any item listed under there (the specific type and item are not critical).
5. Set the price per unit to $0 and click Add.
6. Edit this item and check the box for "cancelled" or "Returned" in the Quantity row. Save the item.
7. Mark the invoice and payment as Ready. The refund should now sync to Xero.

Please try these steps and let me know if you require any further assistance.

Best regards,




Xero and Square

Hello, 

Thank you for your patience. Here is what I found regarding your inquiry about Square and Xero, I have summarized my findings below:
* Square is primarily a credit card processing company that integrates with CounselEAR for convenient in-app client billing.
* This integration does not directly assist with Xero.
* Some accountants advise against linking Square with Xero due to the potential for duplicate payments in Xero. Counselear sends payment information to Xero and if Square is also linked to Xero it will send a duplicate payment.
* For clinics using Square, CounselEAR does not perform bank reconciliation. Clinics are responsible for their own bank reconciliation. CounselEAR only transfers invoices and associated payments into Xero.I hope this information clarifies the relationship between Square, CounselEAR and Xero.
Best regards,




Xero error : "Account type is invalid for making a payment to/from"

Hello,


Regarding the "Account type is invalid for making a payment to/from" error in Xero, this typically occurs when the payment account in Xero is miscategorized or if "Enable Payments to This Account" is not checked.

To resolve this, please follow these steps:

1. Check the Clearing Account:
- Navigate to CounselEAR > Administration > Clinics > Clinic list.
- Click "Edit" next to the clinic.
- Go to the Financial tab.
- Click on "Settings" next to Xero.
- Verify the Clearing account and ensure it matches the account in Xero > Dashboard.
- Make sure "Enable Payments to This Account" is checked.

2. Reset Failed Invoices:
- Go to CounselEAR > Dashboard > QBs/Xero failed widget.
- Click on the wheel in the top right corner.
- Check the box for dates to reset all invoices to "Ready." They should then sync to Xero.

Please let me know if you encounter any further issues.

Best regards,




Xero error : ” Invoice not of valid status for modification”

Thank you for reaching out to us regarding the Xero invoice issue.

Regarding the error message "Invoice not of valid status for modification", this usually indicates that the invoice in Xero has a status of void or paid and can no longer be modified.

To resolve this, merging the invoice would be a good workaround, as the new invoice would have a different ID and create a new invoice in Xero. 

To do this, create a new invoice and merge the existing invoice into it in CounselEAR by going to the Action button when on the New invoice and select the option to merge invoice.
 It needs to be set up as a new invoice in CounselEAR, as that is what is used to match the invoice with Xero. Doing so will set the Invoice> Xero status as ready, and it should then sync.

Please give this a try
Thank you,




Xero Error : Invalid_grant"

I noticed that some of your invoices are stuck with the following errors: "Error : Invalid_grant". This most likely indicates that the connection to Xero has expired or become corrupted.

To resolve this, please disconnect the clinic from Xero and reconnect it. Start by navigating to CounselEAR > Administration > Clinics > Clinics list. Next, click 'Edit' next to the relevant location, and then select the 'Financial' tab. Click on 'Settings' next to Xero and then click on the bold word  'disconnect' at the very top.

After waiting a few minutes, click on 'connect clinic to Xero'.
This will re-establish a new connection. Finally, go to the Dashboard, click on the wheel icon, check the box for dates, and save. This action will update all the invoices to the 'Ready' status, enabling them to sync.

I hope this helps!
Kind regards,




Xero error : Invoice not of valid status for modification

Hello,

Thanks for bringing this invoice error to our attention, I appreciate you reaching out.

Typically, this error arises when the invoice in Xero has either been voided or is already marked as paid; this will prevent further modifications. As a potential workaround, merging the invoice could be effective, as it would generate a new invoice with a different ID within Xero.

Here are the steps to merge the invoice:

* Start by creating a new invoice in CounselEAR. You can do this by navigating to the Invoice tab in the patient's profile.
* Fill in the basic information under the Invoice info tab, and then save.
* Go to the 'Action' button and select 'Merge invoices.' Then, select the specific invoice in question and proceed to merge. This merge will bring across all line items and any payments into the new invoice.

This process should reset the Invoice and payment status to 'ready,' which should then allow it to sync correctly.
Please give this a try and let me know if still an issue.

Kind Regards,




XERO Integration Information

Hello and welcome aboard!
I'd be happy to provide some basic information about the integration. As a best practice, we recommend initiating the integration only after we have converted and brought over all the information into your CounselEAR account.

Key Points about the Integration 
  •  Invoice and Payment Level Sync - CounselEAR syncs invoices and payments with Xero. Stock/inventory information, vendor bills, and receipts are not stored or synced 
  • HIPAA Compliance -  Due to Xero's non-HIPAA compliant status, CounselEAR does not sync any patient-specific information (e.g., name, DOB, address). Instead, patients are represented by an ID number,  which will be assigned to every patient in CounselEAR over to Xero. 

  • Automatic Sync - The sync runs automatically approximately every 6 hours and only syncs invoices and payments marked as "Ready." You can choose to default new invoices/payments to "Ready" or "Not Ready.". 
  • Sync Error Tracking -  A dashboard widget called "QuickBooks/Xero Sync (A listing of all CounselEAR invoices that failed to synchronize with QuickBooks.) - Failed" displays invoices that fail to sync and the reason for failure. 
  • Past Dated Invoice Sync : CounselEAR can sync past dated invoices to Xero.  
  • Setup Process - A brief setup process is required to map line items, taxes, set up invoice due dates etc between the two systems.
    To ensure a smooth and accurate setup, we highly recommend that you schedule a session with a CounselEAR representative to assist you with this process.
We would like to clarify that at present, we do not have a dedicated video or a comprehensive instruction sheet that covers the entire integration process because it can be intricate, with a significant potential for incorrect configurations that could lead to errors and require more time for rectification. Considering this, we believe the most effective way to ensure a successful and seamless integration is to offer our direct expertise and guidance through the initial setup phase to help mitigate the risk of errors and ensure everything is properly aligned.
Once you've reviewed this information and decided to proceed with the integration, or if you have any further questions, please use the link below to schedule a time to discuss the process in more detail. 

Please let me know if you have any further questions at the moment.
Best wishes

Difference between Questionnaires and Form Docs

Hello, 
Questionnaires are meant to be sent electronically to patients before their appointment or completed once the patient is in the office on a tablet or desktop station. Questionnaires can also be physician facing. (examples intake forms, patient consent forms, industry screening tools such as THI, HHIA, etc)
*We recommend having paper copies available for non technology using patients that you can scan into the patient’s docs tab.
Form documents can not be sent electronically to patients before their appointment.  Staff can generate a form document for a patient and print it to be signed or brought up on a tablet or signature pad to  sign electronically during the patient visit. Form documents are for situations where the patient does not fill out information (examples: Purchase Agreements and other contractual documents)
Let me know if you have any questions.  Thanks!

Logo vs Letterhead

Hello

CounselEar will create a default header at the top of the page with your logo, address, and contact information on all documents you generate in the system.
If a letterhead is uploaded it will appear on all documents generated except questionnaires which will use the default. The downside of using a letterhead is that the name of the form document does not automatically generate at the top as it does if the default is used.
Uploading a letterhead image is optional.  You would only upload it if you do not like the default header CounselEAR creates using your logo, document name and clinic information.  If you upload a letterhead image, it will override the default header and will display on all documents.  99.9% of clinics go with the default header because there are downsides to uploading a letterhead (ex. document title doesn't display at the top).   
Also, by default, your clinic logo will display at the top of marketing letters, but some clinics will choose to have their letterhead image at the top of marketing letter templates instead of their logo or they will format letters so that they can be printed on preprinted letterhead. 
 
Let me know which letterhead option you prefer.  Thanks!

TIMS Migrations



TIMS Company Registration Email

Hello!

Thank you for your interest in CounselEAR Complete OMS. We are here to answer any questions that you have, and to help make this transition as smooth as possible. I wanted to give you some links and details so that you can see CounselEAR in action, as well as connect with the Team.

Getting Started:
If you have not already, please [click this link] to Register your Clinic for a free Demo. Make sure to indicate that TIMS is your Current OMS. This will create a new Account for you that will be ready should you decide to move forward. It also provides us with details regarding your Clinic to make sure we have accurate details in our system.

Please see the login credentials below for accessing your free trial within our Demo (Sandbox) Clinic. This Clinic is fully loaded with all of our great features, and is the best way to get familiarized with how CounselEAR works. Our Team will check in periodically to see if you have any questions or want to schedule a quick Q&A.  

Webinar:
We have a special live webinar dedicated to TIMS Migrations that takes place on Wednesdays from 1pm - 2pm Central Time. The webinar is live and you will be anonymous to other attendees. There will be a chat function where you can ask any questions you need. The link to sign up is [here]. Should you have further questions that were not addressed, then we are happy to setup a New Clinic Q&A with the team. Just click [here] to schedule a time with one of our Account Specialists.

Special Offer for TIMS Migrations:
If you complete your data migration by October 1st, 2025, we will pay the TIMS migration fees for TIMS and Noah data (usually $250) and documents (usually $250). In addition, we will waive our Conversion Fee ($199.95/location). We offer special dedicated migration dates on Mondays, Tuesdays, and Wednesdays each week.

Conversion Process:
The complete process (i.e. initial setup through going live with CounselEAR) typically takes approximately 4-6 weeks. Our Onboarding Team will work with you directly to assist with setting up your account, arrange trainings for your staff (conducted by our Training Team), facilitate the data migration (1 business day process), and address your questions along the way.

TIMS Company Registration Email for Canadian Clinics:


Thank you for your interest in CounselEAR Complete OMS. We are here to answer any questions that you have, and to help make this transition as smooth as possible. I wanted to give you some links and details so that you can see CounselEAR in action, as well as connect with the Team.

Since you have indicated that your Clinics are based in Canada, a quick note:

We do have Clinics who are based in Canada who use CounselEAR Complete OMS in their Clinic. There are some caveats, however:

CounselEAR Complete OMS and CounselEAR Connect are web-based with our servers being located within the United States. In addition, our Claims billing is setup for the U.S. Healthcare System and would unfortunately not be able to accommodate Provincial/Territorial requirements directly. Please, consult local Patient Data Storage requirements in your area.

Getting Started:
If you have not already, please [click this link] to Register your Clinic for a free Demo. Make sure to indicate that TIMS is your Current OMS. This will create a new Account for you that will be ready should you decide to move forward. It also provides us with details regarding your Clinic to make sure we have accurate details in our system.
