Claims
Human approval gate
AI can suggest. Only your team can send. Before any claim reaches the clearinghouse, it has to be sent for review and approved by a person. Reviewers can approve it or return it to draft with a note. When software submits claims on its own, the billing company is still accountable for what went out. What ships here includes mandatory review step before clearinghouse submission; approve or return-to-draft with a written reason. Used day to day by supervisor, admin, biller roles, with availability marked available. Open the sample screen on the right, then walk the steps below — or book a demo and put your hand on the same flow with synthetic data.

What it is
Before any claim reaches the clearinghouse, it has to be sent for review and approved by a person. Reviewers can approve it or return it to draft with a note. There is no setting that turns this off.
The problem it solves
When software submits claims on its own, the billing company is still accountable for what went out. Owners told us the thing that keeps them up at night isn't speed, it's not knowing who signed off.
Process
How it works, step by step
- 1
Edit and scrub
The biller finishes the claim and clears or acknowledges any scrub findings.
- 2
Send for review
The claim moves to pending review. It's locked from silent edits while it waits.
- 3
Approve or return
A reviewer approves it, or sends it back to draft with a reason the biller will see.
- 4
Only then, submit
Approved claims are queued for the clearinghouse. Every step has a name and a timestamp attached.

Common questions
Doesn't a review step slow us down?
It adds a click for the reviewer and removes the far slower work of chasing a bad claim after it's denied. Most teams batch reviews a few times a day.
Can a biller approve their own claim?
That depends on how you set roles. Many companies keep building and approving separate; smaller teams can let a supervisor do both.
Can we turn the gate off for trusted billers?
No. It's a deliberate design choice, not a preference.
