Who We Are – And What We Do for You
Clinicient is a combination of the words “clinic” and “efficient”. And that’s the essence of who we are.
Founded in 1998 by Physical Therapist Jerry Henderson, we focus exclusively on providing Outpatient Rehabilitation business solutions. We are dedicated to helping private practices in Outpatient Rehabilitation succeed. And we do it by offering a unique combination of integrated physical therapy software, efficient business processes, physical therapy billing experience and an unprecedented knowledge base of payer rules.
Beyond providing software, our goal is to bring together the combined knowledge and learning of all our physical therapy clients so that we can help each other grow and gain strength as a community. Over the years we’ve built a technology platform unlike anything else in the market, allowing us to create an ever expanding network of Outpatient Rehab practices, payers and industry expertise. Since the introduction of Clinicient’s first integrated software system in 1999, our charter has been to reward great outpatient care and solve the problems of getting physical therapists paid for their services. Thousands of therapists and clinical staff have relied on Clinicient to enable them to care for their clients as well as their bottom line. Through our network of customers in nearly every state, we have managed over $100 million in collections, worked with over 2,800 payers nationwide, and now maintain the largest database of payer rules and knowledge in the Outpatient Rehabilitation market. Our office is headquartered in Portland, Oregon.
Clinicient is proud to work with a Clinical Advisory Group of of therapy professionals who work with us to provide advice on issues they face as therapists, clinic owners and business professionals. Their guidance helps us stay current on clinical issues and ways we can continue to help our customers succeed. Click here to read more about them.
