EHR for behavioral health practices
Therapy notes, psychiatric evaluations, 37 screening scales, telehealth and billing in one system. NovoClinical is built for outpatient behavioral health practices, with or without prescribers.
Built around how behavioral health works
Your templates, screenings, intake forms and consents come ready for behavioral health, and you can adjust every one of them to your practice.
Psychotherapy notes
A psychotherapy note template, alongside templates for psychiatric evaluations and medication management visits.
Measurement-based care
Standard screening scales with scoring, from PHQ-9 and GAD-7 to PCL-5 and C-SSRS, so you can track symptoms from visit to visit.
Intake before the first session
Patients complete check-in, history and screening forms from the portal, a text link or a QR code. Your staff reviews what they submit.
Telehealth built in
See patients by video from inside NovoClinical, with the note and the claim in the same place.
Prescribing, including controlled substances
e-Prescribing with controlled substances included and a PDMP check, for practices with psychiatrists or psychiatric nurse practitioners.
Care management and billing
Behavioral health integration (BHI) care plans, claims, remittance posting and denial follow-up, so the practice gets paid for the work it does.
Screening scales, ready to use
37 screening and rating scales are available in the note, and many can be sent to patients as check-in forms so scores are in before the visit starts. Among them:
Consents and agreements included
Behavioral health documents patients can read and sign electronically, as part of check-in or on their own.
- Behavioral health patient check-in
- Psychotherapy informed consent and practice agreement
- Couples and family therapy agreement
- Psychiatric medication informed consent
- Stimulant and benzodiazepine treatment agreement
Every form can be edited to match your practice’s policies.
An AI scribe that writes the draft
NovoScribe listens to the session and drafts the note for you to review, edit and sign. You decide what goes in the chart. AI is optional and billed by usage.
Questions behavioral health practices ask
Can patients fill out the PHQ-9 or GAD-7 before their appointment?
Yes. Screening scales can be sent as check-in forms through the patient portal, a text link or a QR code. The answers come back to your staff for review before they go into the chart.
Is there a template for psychotherapy notes?
Yes. NovoClinical includes a psychotherapy note template and templates for psychiatric evaluations and follow-up visits. Templates are tailored to the specialty and can be customized for your practice.
Can our prescribers send controlled substances?
Yes. e-Prescribing includes controlled substances, and prescribers can check the state prescription monitoring program (PDMP) from NovoClinical.
Do you support telehealth sessions?
Yes. Telemedicine is built into NovoClinical, so video visits are documented and billed in the same system.
What does it cost?
The complete EMR is $285 to $385 per provider per month, with scheduling, intake, the patient portal and e-prescribing included. AI features are billed separately, by usage. See pricing
