These case studies on EMR’s are meant to briefly showcase what I was able to accomplish with each unique service and how that translated into insights for the practice owner. Some EHR’s are better than others for data analysis but there isn’t a lot of clear information out there comparing them.
Therabill looks and feels like a dated EMR but it is fast and reliable. In this case study, we explore Therabill’s data capabilities, focusing on available data, reporting features, and data exporting functionalities. Our goal is to provide therapy business owners with a comprehensive overview of Therabill’s strengths and potential areas for improvement, aiding in informed decision-making when selecting an EMR solution.
Therabill offers a robust array of data options tailored to the needs of therapy practices. Users can record and access detailed patient information, including demographics, medical history, treatment plans, and progress notes. The software also supports scheduling data, allowing for efficient management of appointments and therapist availability. Additionally, Therabill includes billing data, tracking payments, insurance claims, and financial reports. This extensive data collection ensures that therapy practices can maintain comprehensive records, support clinical decision-making, and meet regulatory requirements.
Does Therabill have an API? No they do not, but that shouldn’t stop you from getting insights from your data. Book a call today to see how we can take the annoying work out of downloading and visualizing Therabill data.
Therabill allows you to export max 1 year (sometimes less depending on how buggy it is that day) of data as a CSV (Excel) file. This is the first step for data analysis and it is annoying to have to do 12 exports to get 2021 billing data. I say this with every EMR, but an API would be incredibly useful although most software providers avoid them for HIPPA security reasons.
Once he explained all this to me, I asked him to show me how he tracked his data. Spread out over 5 mislabeled spreadsheets were a heap of miscellaneous tables and charts that his admin staff and him cobbled together. I found out where the data sources were, cleaned the data, and put it into my easily understood dashboard. We then analyzed each of this therapist’s performance to see which hires were working out. Instead of flying blind like before, I actually felt like we had a clear view of his business.
Therabill gets the jobs done as an EMR and as billing software, but leaves much to be desired from a data analysis perspective. I can make a simple dashboard with Therabill reports but the more complicated charts I like to make involving breakdowns by insurance, late notes, cancelations are much harder if not impossible due to the limiting data export options.
For all I’m complaining about Therabill it is still extremely secure, as it was not involved in the massive Feb 2024 cyberattack on Change Healthcare, which should count for something.
If you come to me with data in Therabill I can make you a dashboard, but it won’t be as advanced as a modern SimplePractice or TherapyNotes dashboard.

Ben at Datafluent transformed our therapy practice with their EHR dashboard system. The payroll automation alone saves us hours, and the tracking for no-shows, late cancels, and missing notes has significantly improved our reporting, with the insurance insights helping us make better business decisions. I highly recommend them to any private practice wanting to streamline operations and boost their bottom line.
Working with Ben Bavonese has been a game-changer for our practice. The custom dashboard he created offers a clear, at-a-glance view of our KPIs, helping me make informed decisions with ease. What stood out most was his thoughtful approach—he took the time to truly understand the unique needs of our group practice and translated that into a tool that’s both insightful and easy to use. He’s also been consistently responsive and collaborative throughout the process. I highly recommend him to any group practice owner looking to gain clarity, efficiency, and take their operations to the next level.
Ben has a real gift of being able to organize your practice’s data in an insightful and easy to use dashboard. Since hiring him, I have used the dashboard to track (and retrieve!) dropped clients, view my practice trends (for example, knowing when my slow months are coming so I can increase my networking and advertising to compensate). Let’s face it, we’d all like to be able to manually record and track our data, but it’s a boring, difficult and repetitive process, even though it would benefit us. With Ben’s help, you receive all of the data in a usable format monthly, with no need to manually input. Hire his company today, it will only help your practice grow!
This dashboard is deeply helpful for my practice. To see all of the data around session totals, retention rates, finances, and more all in one place makes communication and accountability with my team easier and clearer, and helps drive smart decision making for my practice. Ben is fantastic to work with. He is thoughtful and responsive and tailors the data to what you need. Highly recommend working with him!
Ben with Data Fluent is so knowledgeable and easy to work with. He created a dashboard for my practice that is easily accessible and makes the data easy to understand. Having the organized data without having to navigate multiple spreadsheets has made it possible for me to make some important changes in my systems and improve my business.
