For behavioral health & SUD treatment programs

Spend your hours on care. Not on capturing it.

An AI documentation assistant trained on the conventions of behavioral health and SUD treatment. Every note is scored against the UR rubric it will be judged by — before you sign it.

How it works

Listens to the session. Writes the note. Validates the rubric.

Careflow joins the session, transcribes the conversation in real time, and produces a structured note in your modality of choice — scored against ASAM criteria before you ever click submit.

Based on 70% documentation reduction. Individual results vary.
Built for the work, not the chart

Built for the clinicians who write the notes, and the director who answers for them.

Generic scribes flatten clinical nuance into bullet points. Careflow was trained on the documentation conventions of behavioral health and SUD treatment — and validates every note against the rubric it will actually be judged by.

Behavioral health

Sessions that read like sessions, not checkboxes.

Modality-aware notes with risk language captured as it was said — plus treatment plans drafted from the patient's own intake, with goals every later note tracks against.

  • Modality-aware: CBT, DBT, MI, ACT
  • Suicide-risk language flagged for review
  • Treatment plans anchored to the intake
Substance use disorder

ASAM dimensions, scored from the conversation.

Listens for ASAM dimensions and produces UR-ready documentation. Validates medical necessity in payer language before you click submit.

  • Six ASAM-aligned rubrics, one per note type
  • UR validation before submission
  • MAT med-check template: buprenorphine, methadone, naltrexone
Clinical leadership

The director sees it before the payer does.

Every scored note rolls up into a quality dashboard — by clinician, by criterion, and by how long notes have been sitting unsigned.

  • Weakest criteria surfaced org-wide
  • Median days-to-sign, with overdue flags
  • Signed and locked, late entries stamped
The hard part, automated

Six ASAM-aligned rubrics. The right one, on every note.

A denied day is rarely about the care — it's about what the note did or didn't say. An intake is graded as an intake; a group note as a group note. Careflow picks the rubric from the session type, then scores the note criterion by criterion — diagnosis specificity, withdrawal status, cravings, readiness, environment, level-of-care justification, continued medical necessity. Weak language is flagged before submission, with rewrites in the language reviewers actually accept.

  • Per-criterion pass / borderline / fail scoring
  • Pre-submission rewrite suggestions, in payer language
  • Re-scored automatically if a session is reclassified

Individual responseIdentified Friday evenings as a high-risk window; agreed to bring a trigger log to next session.
Group therapy

One group. A note for every member.

In IOP and PHP, most billable hours are group — and every member needs a note that shows their own participation. Careflow separates the voices in a single room recording, you confirm who's who, and each member gets an individualized note in their own chart.

  • One recording, one note per participant — up to nine members
  • Other members' names are replaced before each note is written
  • Every note graded on its own, so “individualized response” holds up
  • Someone walks in late? Add them to the roster mid-session
For clinical leadership

Your director stops finding out from the payer.

Every scored note rolls up into a quality dashboard the clinical director owns — which clinicians, which criteria, and which notes have been sitting unsigned. Role-gated: clinicians see their own work, directors see the program.

  • Weakest criteria across the org, and inside each clinician's drill-down
  • Median days-to-sign, share signed within 72 hours, flags past a week
  • Notes signed and locked — late entries stamped, addenda tracked as addenda

Security posture

Compliance isn't a checkbox at the bottom of the page.

We're early — and we'd rather make one promise we keep than four we can't yet prove.

What we commit to today

BAA, by default.

Signed before your first call. PHI never leaves your tenant unencrypted, and we'll execute your standard agreement — not ours.

What we're working on next. 42 CFR Part 2-aware consent flows and full audit logging are on the roadmap — we'll tell you exactly where they stand on the call, not in a footer.
Get in touch

No more charting at 7pm.

Tell us how your program runs — individual, group, IOP — and we'll show you a note written and scored in the template your clinicians already use.

  • Your note formats
    Not a generic SOAP box — notes come out in the templates your program already uses.
  • BAA included
    Signed before any of your data is involved. We'll execute your standard agreement.
  • Pilot in 2 weeks
    From signed BAA to first clinician charting on Careflow.
We only use this to get back to you, and never share your details.
