For small therapy practices
clearclaim

Keep therapy covered.

ClearClaim checks every insurance claim against the therapist’s session note, the way an insurer would, so a practice can fix a gap before an audit takes the money back.

The therapist’s note says
“Session began 2:05 pm, ended 2:52 pm.”
Caught first
The note shows 47 minutes. A 60-minute session needs at least 53.

From a messy notes export to a fix that needs one approval.

01 · READDrop in the practice’s notes and claims, from any records software.
02 · CHECKEach claim is matched to its note against the insurer’s own rules.
03 · FIXClearClaim drafts the fix. A person approves it; the note stays as written.
04 · SENDThe response packet goes out, with every finding explained.

The problem

When an insurer audits a small therapy practice, one paperwork gap can cost years of revenue.

“0% of my notes were valid.”

The therapist’s note says
“Session began 2:05 pm, ended 2:52 pm.”
Taken back
The note shows 47 minutes. A 60-minute session needs at least 53. Repeated weekly with one client for three years, that 7-minute gap is $6,000 paid back.

42%

of therapists Medicare singled out for review were flagged “major risk”: too many of their claims didn’t hold up.

How it works

One platform that checks every claim against the therapist’s session notes, the way an insurer would.

Before billing

Caught before it goes out

Each new claim is checked against its session note before it’s sent.

Then

Fix it, with approval

Edits suggested from the client’s own chart, each with its source. The clinician accepts each one.

When the letter arrives

A records request, handled

On demand: a 48-hour review of the requested charts and a response packet.

People in the loop

Every fix is approved by a person

Each flag goes to a behavioral-health biller before the owner sees it. Clinicians accept or reject every edit.

Underneath

Each insurer’s rules, versioned

A library of each insurer’s rules, dated and versioned, so every flag cites its source. Works with whatever records software the practice already uses.

Pricing

Simple, per practice

$99 a month for the whole platform. A records-request review is $490 for up to 40 charts, and triage is free.

Privacy

Mental-health records are as private as data gets. Privacy comes first.

01

No real records first

Nothing real reaches us before the practice signs a privacy agreement (a HIPAA business associate agreement).

02

Never psychotherapy notes

Only the progress notes insurers can request. Therapists’ private notes stay with them.

03

Names removed

Client names come off before anything is checked.

04

Deleted after each review

Every file is erased when the review ends.

Why it matters

Paperwork shouldn’t decide who gets therapy.

~30 million

American adults with a mental illness got no treatment in 2024.

SAMHSA, National Survey on Drug Use and Health, 2024
56%

of psychologists have no openings for new patients.

American Psychological Association, 2023

Every therapist pushed out of insurance makes covered care harder to find. ClearClaim helps therapists keep taking insurance, so clients keep their care.
