Valant

What Valant does

Valant is a Seattle-based, privately held SaaS company that provides a purpose-built Electronic Health Record (EHR) and practice management platform for behavioral health practices. Founded in 2005 and operating under the legal entity Valant Inc. (also doing business as Valant Medical Solutions), the company serves solo therapists and psychiatrists, small and large group practices, multi-practice and franchise organizations, IOP/PHP programs, outpatient programs, and behavioral-health-focused billing agencies. The platform is organized into three integrated module areas — Clinical Care, Practice Management, and Patient Experience — and is supplemented by outsourced Revenue Cycle Management (RCM) services tailored to behavioral health billing. Valant reports 51-100 employees and is headquartered at 1700 7th Ave #2100, Seattle, WA 98101.

The core technology stack is a cloud-based SaaS EHR designed specifically for mental health workflows, in contrast to general medical EHRs. It bundles clinical documentation with 100+ therapy and psychiatry templates, a built-in library of 50+ standardized behavioral health outcome measures (e.g., PHQ-9, GAD-7), integrated telehealth, ePrescribing with PDMP checks, an integrated clearinghouse, eligibility verification, a MYIO-branded patient portal, and an EHR API for interoperability. Two AI- and automation-led modules sit on top of this base: AI Notes Assist, which uses natural language processing and generative AI to transcribe sessions and draft clinical notes, and Claim Assist, a rules engine with 100+ behavioral-health-specific billing checks that automates charge review. The platform holds HITRUST i1 certification and is HIPAA- and CCPA-compliant. Operational integrations include Zuora for subscription billing, Zendesk for support ticketing, and Octave's WiseMatch for value-based-care data infrastructure.

Valant's revenue model combines SaaS subscriptions (tiered and quote-based, billed monthly or annually), outsourced RCM services (managed-services revenue), transaction fees from integrated patient payments, and one-time implementation and onboarding professional services. Go-to-market is primarily sales-led, with a "Request a Live Demo" CTA supplemented by a self-serve "Watch a Recorded Demo" path, inside sales handling inbound leads, and an active content and SEO program (blogs, white papers, buyer's guides, webinars, and third-party rankings). A targeted promotional offer — three months free on the monthly plan for new PMHNP practices — is currently in market. The company is backed by Gemspring Capital following a 2019 control-stage investment.

Revenue model

1. SaaS Subscription: Recurring subscription to the Valant EHR platform, billed on a monthly cadence (referenced as "Valant's monthly plan"). Pricing is tiered and quote-based rather than publicly disclosed; a promotional offer of 3 months free is offered to new PMHNP practices on the monthly plan.
2. Revenue Cycle Management Services: Professional billing/managed-services revenue from end-to-end RCM where Valant's team handles claims submission, payment posting, and follow-up on behalf of behavioral health practices; bundled or add-on to the EHR subscription.
3. Payment Processing / Transaction Fees: Transaction-based revenue from integrated patient payments and merchant processing (powered by Zuora for subscription billing of the platform itself, plus payment processing for patient collections through the patient portal).
4. Implementation & Onboarding Services: One-time professional services revenue from setup, data migration, and training accompanying new customer onboarding.
