Is RevNote AI legal and will it hold up in an Alberta Health audit?

Yes. RevNote only suggests billing codes supported by documentation in your own notes. Our Billing Compliance Guard tells you exactly what language Alberta Health auditors look for — such as numeric scores (e.g., 'PHQ-9: 8/27') or documented BMI — so your claim is always defensible. We never fabricate clinical findings.

Does RevNote store patient data? Do I need a PIA?

No patient data is ever stored. RevNote is a 'de-identified layer' — you never input patient names, DOBs, or PHNs. Because no personal health information is processed, you bypass the 12-month PIA approval process. All session data is wiped after each encounter. Built to comply with the Alberta HIA.

Which EMR systems does RevNote work with?

RevNote works alongside any EMR (Telus Health Wolf, Accuro, Microquest, OSCAR, etc.) as a browser sidecar — not a native plugin. You copy the formatted SOAP note with one click and paste it into any system. No IT department, no setup, no integration.

How accurate is RevNote AI billing?

RevNote achieves 99% accuracy across tested clinical scenarios thanks to our Neuro-Symbolic billing engine — a deterministic rule-validation layer on top of AI extraction. This compares to ~60-70% for manual GP billing. Every suggested code includes the evidence from your own note — you review before submitting. You are always the final decision-maker.

How much does RevNote AI cost?

RevNote offers a Free Trial with 10 encounters (no credit card required), a Starter plan at $39 CAD/month for 30 encounters, and a Pro plan at $399 CAD/month for unlimited encounters. The average RevNote encounter recovers $100-350 in additional billing, so Pro pays for itself in just 2 encounters.

What is the ROI of RevNote AI for a full-time GP?

A full-time GP seeing 20+ patients/day recovers an estimated $3,100+/month — an 8x return on investment at the Pro tier ($399/month). The tool pays for itself after just 2 encounters.
