Terms of Service

The rules that govern your use of the recoupr platform.

Last Updated: February 6, 2026

Recoupr LLC (“recoupr,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) provides a cloud-based platform (the “Service”) that automates the submission, tracking, and appeal of out-of-network mental health insurance claims. These Terms of Service (“Terms”) govern your access to and use of the Service.

By creating an account or using the Service, you agree to be bound by these Terms. If you do not agree, do not use the Service.


1. Definitions

  • “Therapy Group” or “Practice” means the mental health therapy practice that subscribes to recoupr.
  • “Admin” means an authorized administrator of a Therapy Group.
  • “Therapist” means a licensed mental health provider affiliated with a Therapy Group.
  • “Client” means an individual whose insurance claims are processed through the Service.
  • “Superbill” means a billing document summarizing a therapy session for insurance purposes.
  • “Claim” means an insurance reimbursement request submitted through the Service on behalf of a Client.
  • “PHI” means Protected Health Information as defined by the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 (“HIPAA”).
  • “BAA” means Business Associate Agreement, as required under HIPAA.

2. Eligibility and Account Registration

2.1 Who May Use the Service

The Service is available to licensed mental health therapy practices operating in the United States. Only adults (age 18 or older) may create accounts. If a Client is a minor, a parent or legal guardian must hold and manage the account.

2.2 Account Responsibilities

You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your login credentials and for all activity under your account. You agree to notify us immediately at support@recoupr.ai if you suspect unauthorized access.

2.3 Accurate Information

You agree to provide accurate, current, and complete information during registration and to keep your information updated. Inaccurate provider information (e.g., NPI, Tax ID) may result in claim rejections for which recoupr is not responsible.


3. Description of Service

3.1 What recoupr Does

recoupr provides automated tools that:

  • Parse therapist-uploaded superbills using AI
  • Generate CMS-1500-compliant claim packets
  • Submit claims electronically to insurance payers via a licensed clearinghouse
  • Track claim status and provide updates
  • Generate and submit appeal letters when claims are denied, where appropriate
  • Manage payer enrollment status

3.2 What recoupr Does NOT Do

recoupr is not an insurance company, a healthcare provider, a payment processor, or a legal or financial advisor. Specifically:

  • We do not guarantee insurance reimbursement or any specific payment amount.
  • We do not make coverage determinations or interpret your insurance benefits.
  • We do not hold, process, or distribute insurance reimbursement funds. Payments flow directly from the insurer to the Client.
  • We do not provide medical, clinical, legal, or financial advice.
  • We do not store clinical therapy notes or full medical records.
  • We explicitly exclude Medicare claims from the Service.

3.3 Third-Party Dependencies

The Service relies on third-party infrastructure and services, including but not limited to clearinghouse services, cloud hosting providers, AI processing platforms, and payment processors. We maintain Business Associate Agreements with vendors that handle PHI. We are not responsible for outages, errors, or changes in third-party services beyond our reasonable control.


4. Subscription and Billing

4.1 Pricing

The Service is offered on a monthly subscription basis. Pricing is subject to change with 30 days' prior written notice. Promotional pricing (e.g., Founder's Cohort discounts) is governed by the terms disclosed at the time of enrollment.

4.2 Billing Cycle

Subscriptions are billed monthly. If a therapist is added mid-month, the charge begins on the next billing cycle. If a therapist is removed mid-month, access continues through the end of the current billing period with no refund for the partial month.

4.3 Payment Methods

We accept major credit cards and ACH direct debit. Payment is processed securely through our third-party payment processor. You authorize recurring charges at the applicable subscription rate.

4.4 Failed Payments

If a payment fails, we will notify you and provide a grace period to update your payment method. Continued failure to pay may result in suspension or termination of access. Claims already submitted will continue processing regardless of payment status.

4.5 No Per-Claim Fees

There are no additional fees per claim submitted, per appeal filed, or per eligibility check performed.


5. HIPAA Compliance and Protected Health Information

5.1 Business Associate Relationship

recoupr acts as a Business Associate to each subscribing Therapy Group. Our handling of PHI is governed by the BAA executed between recoupr and the Therapy Group. In the event of any conflict between these Terms and the BAA regarding PHI, the BAA shall control.

5.2 PHI Handling

We implement administrative, physical, and technical safeguards to protect PHI in accordance with HIPAA, including:

  • Encryption at rest (AES-256) and in transit (TLS 1.2+)
  • Role-based access controls
  • Comprehensive audit logging
  • Automated data retention and deletion policies

5.3 Minimum Necessary Standard

recoupr collects and processes only the minimum information necessary to perform claims processing. We handle billing artifacts and metadata only — never clinical treatment content or therapy session notes.

5.4 Insurance Card Images

Insurance card images uploaded by Clients are processed via optical character recognition (OCR) to extract relevant identifiers. The original image is deleted promptly after extraction. We do not retain insurance card images.

5.5 Data Retention

  • Structured billing data (claim records, parsed superbill data) is retained for the duration necessary to fulfill operational and regulatory requirements.
  • Raw superbill PDF files are deleted after the associated claim lifecycle is closed.
  • Audit logs are retained for a minimum of 12 months.

5.6 Texas Medical Records Privacy Act

For Texas residents, recoupr complies with the Texas Medical Records Privacy Act (Chapter 181, Texas Health & Safety Code) as amended by HB 300, including the prohibition on the sale of PHI and the requirement to respond to electronic PHI access requests within fifteen (15) business days.

7. Intellectual Property

7.1 Our Property

The Service, including all software, algorithms, AI models, user interfaces, documentation, and branding, is the exclusive property of Recoupr LLC. Nothing in these Terms grants you any right to our intellectual property beyond the limited license to use the Service as a subscriber.

7.2 Your Data

You retain ownership of all data you submit to the Service, including superbills, insurance information, and practice details. You grant recoupr a limited license to process this data solely for the purpose of providing the Service.

7.3 De-identified Data

We may de-identify and aggregate data (removing all PHI in accordance with HIPAA Safe Harbor standards) to improve the Service, train AI models, and generate industry benchmarks. De-identified data does not identify any individual and is not subject to HIPAA restrictions.


8. AI and Automation

8.1 AI-Assisted Processing

The Service uses artificial intelligence to parse superbills, generate claim packets, determine appeal eligibility, and draft appeal letters. AI outputs are designed to assist — not replace — human judgment.

8.2 Accuracy

While we strive for accuracy, AI-generated outputs (including parsed data, claim packets, and appeal letters) may contain errors. Clients and Therapists should review claim details before approval. recoupr is not liable for claim denials or payment amounts resulting from AI processing errors.

8.3 Appeal Letters

Appeal letters generated by recoupr cite the Mental Health Parity and Addiction Equity Act (MHPAEA) and relevant federal and state regulations. These letters are administrative documents — not legal advice. Consult an attorney if you need legal counsel regarding a denied claim.


9. Disclaimers

9.1 No Guarantee of Reimbursement

recoupr automates the claims submission process. We do not guarantee that any claim will be approved, that any specific amount will be reimbursed, or that appeals will be successful. Insurance outcomes are determined solely by the applicable insurance payer based on the Client's plan terms.

We strive for high availability but do not guarantee uninterrupted access. The Service may be temporarily unavailable due to maintenance, updates, or circumstances beyond our control. Claims already submitted to the clearinghouse are not affected by Service downtime.

THE SERVICE IS PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE.” TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, RECOUPR DISCLAIMS ALL WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT.
