Comparison

Noteable vs CentralReach: claims and pricing

Noteable publishes two plans: Standard at $300 a month including five users, which exports 837 claim files for your own team to submit, and Elite at 3.9% of monthly collections, where Noteable's billing team works the claims. CentralReach lists no price, submits claims from its platform and offers BillMax for outsourcing. The choice turns on who files.

Three ways a claim can leave the building

Most comparisons of these two start with features. This one starts with the claim, because the two vendors give an agency three distinct routes to getting paid, and the route decides most of the cost.

Noteable Standard turns approved notes into claims and exports them as a clean 837 file. Your own team, or your outside biller, submits it. The plan lists at $300 a month including the first five users, with further users priced in tiers through a calculator on the pricing page. Telehealth and e-faxing are $25 a month each on this plan.

Noteable Elite hands the claims to Noteable’s own revenue-cycle team, with a dedicated specialist and denial management. It is priced at 3.9% of monthly claims paid, not submitted, and you pay the greater of that fee or the Standard software fee.

CentralReach submits claims electronically from inside the platform, turning session-note data into billing entries. If you would rather not run billing at all, its BillMax service takes the whole process on. Neither the platform nor BillMax has a published price.

  • 2 We do not transmit claims. Finished charges leave for your biller as an export, which puts us nearest to Noteable Standard, though Noteable produces an 837 file, and we do not.

The Elite percentage is easy to test against a quote. At $75,000 a month in paid claims, 3.9% is $2,925: the figure Noteable’s own calculator shows. Ask CentralReach for BillMax in the same terms, and ask an independent billing firm too, so the outsourced price has two reference points.

If you keep billing in-house

An agency with its own biller is really choosing between Noteable Standard’s 837 export and CentralReach’s direct submission. Ask both which claims network sits behind the claim, how rejections come back into the record, and what a full data export contains on the day you leave. Noteable does not mention a free trial on its pricing page and charges a setup fee whose amount is not listed, so ask for that number in writing as well.

MegAligna sits on the export side of that line: published per-seat pricing, clients never charged for, session capture that holds through a lost signal, and charges sent to your biller rather than to payers. For CentralReach’s ownership, see CentralReach vs Rethink.

Common questions

How much does Noteable cost?
Its pricing page lists Standard at $300 a month including the first five users, with more users billed in tiers, and Elite at 3.9% of monthly claims paid (or the Standard fee, if higher). There is also a setup fee whose amount the page does not state.
Is Noteable only for ABA?
No. Its home page describes one platform for ABA, community mental health and multi-disciplinary providers, including practices running ABA alongside occupational or speech therapy.
Does Noteable submit claims itself?
On Elite, yes, its revenue-cycle team handles claims end to end. On Standard, Noteable generates the 837 and your team submits it.
Can we run Noteable or CentralReach next to our current system?
A side-by-side run means real client records in a second system, so it waits until that vendor's business associate agreement is signed. Before then, time a routine note on a test client in each: note speed shows up without real data. MegAligna bills per active clinical seat, so a later pilot costs one team's seats.

Compare an export-only option

14 days, no card required. Use made-up patients while you evaluate: real patient information waits until a business associate agreement is in place.
