These sheets have no constants. Every number is worked from the figures you enter: the fields on your intake form, the required ones, the seconds a client spends on each, your new clients a month and how many never send it back, your session fee, your clinicians, sessions, working weeks, no-show rate and clinician split, your rent and software, and the minutes a note takes. The defaults are one three-clinician practice's worked example, not a benchmark this site publishes.

Private practice software is bought at a specific moment: the spreadsheet has a client on it twice, a note cannot be found when somebody asks for it, and the intake forms are sitting in an inbox. This page is what to look for at that moment and what the current arrangement is costing. On the worked example a three-clinician practice writes 3,036 notes a year, 354 hours and $21,960 of clinician time, and loses $29,146 of fee income to an 8% no-show rate.

Start with the file, not the feature list

The test is whether one client's whole file - intake, consent, sessions, notes, letters - can be produced in a minute. On the worked example that file is built from a 34-field intake form and about 1,012 sessions a clinician a year, and any system that cannot assemble it on demand is a filing cabinet with a login.

Count what the current arrangement costs

354 hours a year of note-writing, 910 notes written after the day they belong to, and $29,146 of no-shows. Those three numbers are what a system is measured against, and not one of them appears on a vendor's feature list.

Check the exit before the entry

Ask how the whole record comes out and in what format. A practice's records outlive its software by years, and the answer to that question matters more than any screen in the demo.

Tell us what the Private practice software did not settle

Tell us how many clinicians you have, what the notes live in today and what you use to book, and we will say plainly whether Soapvo carries it.

Practice notes: the questions clinicians ask

Is this an EHR?

It keeps clients, sessions, notes and documents. It does not do booking, card payments or insurance claims, and it says so rather than implying otherwise.

What does it cost per clinician?

Nothing. Soapvo Pro is $79 a month for the whole practice, because a records system that costs more as you hire is one people work around.

Can we get our data out?

Yes, the whole record, whenever you want it, and for 90 days after the account closes.
