All-in-one platform that's perfect for my small private practice!
My business is very part-time on the side, and I didn't have time or resources for some of the other options that are on the market. TheraNest gave me everything I needed to run my practice easily, efficiently, and professionally.
Pros
It's simple to use and has everything you need to make your small private practice run. The customer support is AMAZING! I've never had a question or concern that wasn't quickly resolved by their great team.
Cons
I would like to see the TeleHealth screen be bigger. This is a work in progress since this is a newly added feature.

Theranest lies about their customer service
From time to time, I was able to break through to their "upper management" and was told they really care about me and my clients and my ability to deliver therapy to those in need. This too turned out to be a falsity.
The decision to cut me out was born of my holding them to their word about live customer service.
I have requested to speak to the business owner, but so far, the coward has not had the necessary honor to call a fellow business person to discuss this travesty.
I am considering legal action against this company to recoup the money it will cost me to take down my data from Theranest and use another competitive software.
THEY ARE POISON. Stay away from them.
Pros
It's a comprehensive program that handles most aspects of the claim processing we all need in a busy practice.
They SAY they offer live customer service when a user runs into questions about how to use the program. That is why I chose them over Simple Practice, which offers NO live customer service.
The reality is when you are in need of an answer on how to use an aspect of the program, you must leave a message on a voice mail.
They will call you back when it's convenient for them to do so - and that's never when I need an answer.
I do all of my claims submissions myself and I'm a fairly intelligent and computer literate user. This is a complex, intricate software with may nuances in use.
My time is limited, and so it doesn't work for me to have to wait for an answer until it's convenient for them to call me back.
Cons
Simply put, they lie about their live customer service.
Their training videos are convoluted, not well-produced and hard to follow in terms of content.
I spent countless hours and significant money to make the transfer over to Theranest, and when I held them to account for their promised and not delivered live customer service they CANCELLED MY ACCOUNT!
This has caused me undue stress and dollars...and they have been very callous and offered no-compromise position. I complained too much, and therefore, they got rid of me! Nice!

TherapyNotesReasons for Choosing TheraNest
Simple Practice makes no false statements about Customer service. They don't offer ANY live customer service options, and the program is fairly buggy and complicated.Reasons for Switching to TheraNest
I chose them because they said they had live customer service available. This turned out to not be true.Response from TheraNest

Easy for a busy woman to use
Pros
I love that Theranest makes it easy for me to spend less time writing notes and more time spending time with the clients I work with. Note-writing is simple because of the ability to copy from previous notes and quickly change any parameters that changed in this particular session. Some clients don't change much in certain areas from session to session so it would be a waste of time to rewrite or re-click the data that is consistent. It is easy to look at previous notes so I can review my cases as needed to be a good and consistent therapist. It's also good to have my treatment plan referenced in each note if I need it. Billing is simple from my end as a therapist working with an admin team. This is a platform that takes therapists' needs and workday requirements into perspective. And again, the less time I spend on it, the better.
Cons
The software almost always works, but one technical problem interfered with my ability to label two notes with the correct day once, which is honestly not too bad in comparison to any other experience I've had with other platforms (Kareo, etc). The problem was resolved within one week, appropriate notifications of progress on the issue were made, and it hasn't happened again.

Terrible Bugs and Misrepresentation of Software
It's been a HUGE headache. They consistently overpromise and underdeliver.
Pros
It has so many bugs that it is hard to find much to like other than the cost. I do like that it is priced by client rather than by therapist.
Cons
SO MANY bugs that make working with the software on a day to day basis very difficult. Managed billing was TERRIBLE. They caused our practice to have 30k in outstanding claims in 2 months. NOTHING was paid. And then when I asked to discontinue the service, they stopped responding. We took over billing and they charged us over $600 in one month for work that WE DID.

Becoming More Well Rounded All The Time
Pros
Both administration and clinicians love the features that are available for their use in TheraNest based on their roles in our company. The chat feature is a favorite for both because it helps the front office staff reach out to providers when their current clients are running over the appointment time and the next client is in the waiting room, without interrupting the current client's time.
Cons
I honestly hated the accounting side of TheraNest when I started using it in 2019 because there were so many CMS HCFA1500 permanencies in place once a note was signed, that creating claims and invoicing without having to have a provider un-sign and re-sign a note was difficult. The TheraNest team has made remarkable advancements in being able to customize claims and invoices while maintaining the integrity of the medical record.
