TheraNest by Therapy Brands vs. Therabill by WebPT

TheraNest is appropriate for clinical practice and seems well-suited for providing speech-language and other allied health services. Without firsthand experience billing, it is difficult to provide input regarding the ease of billing with this software. I have yet to see how TheraNest would work for clients with multiple insurance types. I trialed the TheraNest video conferencing near the beginning of 2020 (start of global pandemic), but the feature had glitches and I have since discontinued use of this feature.

For smaller clinics who see fewer numbers of patients or rarely deal with claim denials, Therabill by WebPT would be satisfactory and effective for use. However, because the workflows for handling claim denials and for entering batch payments can be so tedious, difficult, and time-consuming, I would not recommend the suite for businesses with greater quantities of daily claims or complex billing scenarios.

The UI is fairly user-friendly and finding what you need on the site isn't that difficult. Once set up, EDI and ERA receipt works smoothly and payment posting from ERAs is straightforward and simple for the most part. But handling claim denials, corrections, and resubmissions is incredibly difficult. It is not only difficult to find and sort them, but to send them out for reprocessing as well.

TheraNest support team is great but has grown since we bought it 4 years ago. 4 years ago you could call a number and someone would assist immediately and your issue would be resolved within moments. Now when you call to support you speak to someone who tells you they will create a ticket and get back in touch, which takes 2-3 days for a resolve. We understand that this is because TheraNest is growing and cannot staff at such a large scale so quickly without needing to better structure the support process. However, it is something that has been hard to transition over to for our company.

Chat is great but often not working or very slow responses. Can't easily talk to a person about issues and emails are very slow to get answered

TheraHelper was outdated software that was difficult to use and hard to understand. We have cut down almost 3X the amount of work it took to use TheraHelper. TheraHelper did have a better report option for accounting purposes and that is something we are hopeful TheraNest grows toward. TheraHelper also was just beginning to offer a cloud-based option that was very different from the original software they offered, but still too difficult to navigate.
