Raven Health, a behavioral health platform, is well on its way to transform the way healthcare providers and payers collaborate. Our vision is to be the data platform that supports provider-payer value-based care partnerships in behavioral health to improve client outcomes.
Value-based care (VBC) is an approach to healthcare delivery that focuses on achieving better patient outcomes while controlling costs. VBC is an emerging trend in behavioral health. It has the potential to improve access to care, increase patient satisfaction, and reduce overall costs of care.
However, there are several challenges that exist with value-based care in behavioral health, which can limit its effectiveness:
Raven Health is a fast-growing, behavioral health platform that supports data collection for modern clinicians. Our mobile-first technology simplifies client sessions by providing reliable and intuitive behavior tracking and reporting.
The platform captures behavioral clinical data at the point of care through an interoperability platform. In real-time, the clinical data is standardized and combined with any other clinical or administrative data. Providers and payers using the Raven Health platform take a more holistic, data-driven approach to care.
Raven Health’s CEO, Richard Wagner states, “We have a big vision: to be the platform to support provider-payer VBC partnerships in behavioral health. We’re already well on our way. Today our platform can serve recommendations to clinicians at the point of programming, enable providers to use payer-specific session note templates, power admin dashboards for payers to support population management, and we’re just getting started. “
Clinicians using the Raven Health platform are able to spend more time with clients and less time burdened with administrative duties.
Intuitive, mobile-first technology: Clinicians are up-and-running with our modern data platform in less than 15 minutes. The sleek user interface is easy to navigate and designed for modern clinicians.
Robust template library: Clinicians gain access to standard treatment plans. They can modify these plans based on the needs of each individual client.
Offline mode: Clinicians working in environments with an unstable internet connection feel secure. They know that their activities will sync when the internet connection is restored.
Reporting and graphing: Clinicians are able to measure client outcomes over time to better understand if their care plans are effective. These reports are securely shared with members of the clients care team.
Raven Health’s platform is game-changer. Providers and payers alike will benefit. We are well on our way of achieving our vision of transforming value-based care in behavioral health.

Billing shouldn’t be complicated, but with so many options out there it can be. Managing billing needs to be straightforward and streamlined, which is why we created Raven+ and Raven Enterprise. Our comprehensive solution is designed to help you maximize efficiency and increase your profitability without all of the hassle. With a streamlined process, independent auditing services, and accurate reporting, you can rest easy knowing that your billing needs are being met.
As a BCBA working in the ABA community, your day-in and day-out goal is to provide the highest quality and ethically sound care you can. The years spent training and studying have prepared you to do just that.
For some, the desire to have a greater impact on the community they work with leads them to make the brave decision to go out on their own, hang up a shingle, and open their own ABA company.
For most, it is not an easy decision to arrive at. It can be a scary road to take, as there are many things to consider beyond just the delivery of high-quality clinical care.
The transition into being a new business owner after working as a BCBA, Clinical Director, or even in a senior clinical leadership role, can feel overwhelming.
There are so many areas of running a successful business that you may not have been exposed to in your previous role. Just to get your business started, there are myriad legal steps to complete, specific types of insurance to acquire, and financial relationships to develop.
Once you have taken the initial steps to establish your business, you must contract and credential with the funding sources you plan to work with. This can be a complicated and timely process that, if not done correctly, can lead to delays in starting treatment with clients, delays in claims payment, and even claims denials.
It is imperative that this process is done correctly, to ensure timely access for clients and ease of payment for you.
When it comes to the claims process, you have a few options: you can attempt to do it yourself, hire someone to come in and do it for you, or you can outsource this process to experts that will work on your behalf to ensure you get the payments you are entitled to, as well as keep you safe from audits. With Raven’s managed billing solution, our network of specialists can take care of the details and eliminate the hassle, so you can focus on what really matters.
Raven+ and Raven Enterprise offer solutions to fit your needs. Let the Raven team handle to the complicated process of contracting, credentialing, authorization submission and management, benefits verification, claims scrubbing, and claim submission.
Raven allows you to focus on what you do best as a clinical team, and we handle the rest.
