Dietitian software comparisons for practices that bill insurance

The short answerSide-by-side comparisons of the practice software dietitians use, written for practices that bill insurance. Every competitor price comes from the vendor's own pricing page with the date we checked it, and each page says where the other tool wins.

Duo Practice, in short

What it is
Duo Practice is a free EHR with insurance billing built in. It drafts the note and the claim from the visit, files the claim under your NPI once you approve it, matches the payment and explains denials.
Who it's for
Independent registered dietitians who bill insurance.
Price
The chart is free. Billing is 3.9% of what the insurer pays on each claim, with no monthly fee, so a claim paid $0 costs $0. You pay Claim.MD directly for your own clearinghouse plan.
How it differs
Practice Better, Healthie and SimplePractice give you claim tools and leave the claim work to you. Duo Practice does that work, and it can run on top of the EHR you already use.

Disclosure: Duo Practice is one of the options on these pages, and we wrote them. Competitor prices come from each vendor's own pricing page, with the date we checked it.

These pages compare the software dietitians actually choose between, from the point of view of a practice that bills insurance: who builds the claim, who reads the denial, what a month costs at your volume, and who owns the clearinghouse account.

If billing is the part you want off your plate, Duo Practice puts your insurance billing on autopilot: it drafts the note and the claim from the visit, you approve, and it files the claim under your NPI through your own Claim.MD account. See the dietitian insurance billing service.
