Who it’s for

Solo providers and small groups of 1–10 clinicians that want dependable operations, clear reporting, and audit-ready habits—without hiring an in-house admin team.

How it creates value

  • Predictable cash flow with fast, accurate claims and posting
  • Lower admin burden with standardized systems and templates
  • Compliance-first routines that stand up to audits
  • Scalable foundation that supports growth when you’re ready

Time savings (per clinician / week)

Category Typical admin burden (if handled by clinician) Hours saved
Billing & RCM Submit claims, post payments, rework denials 8–10 hr
Scheduling & Intake Calendar management, reschedules, no-show tracking 3–4 hr
Payroll & HR (admin) Self-invoicing, onboarding paperwork, record upkeep 1–2 hr
Compliance Training logs, BAA/vendor tracking, quarterly reviews ~1 hr
Total 13–17 hr/wk

Assumptions: weekly averages for clinicians with a ~20-client caseload. These are hours each clinician would otherwise spend on admin if CORE weren’t in place. Actual savings vary by payer mix, visit volume, and setup.
