CareHub · Virginia · DBHDS Statewide

Your EHR contract is coming up for renewal. Look before you sign again.

Auto-renewal clauses are built to make switching feel harder than it is. CareHub was built for Virginia DD waiver providers specifically, so a compliance lead can see in one look whether it fits before the renewal deadline forces a decision.

Why it matters

Most EHR contracts renew automatically unless a provider gives written notice inside a narrow window, often 60 or 90 days out. Miss it, and the agency is locked in for another term on a system it may have only picked because it was available at the time.

That timing pressure is exactly when it pays to look at the alternative, not after the renewal notice has already gone out. A short evaluation now can save a year of living with the same gaps.

CareHub gives DD waiver providers a system built for DMAS billing and DBHDS licensing from the ground up, not adapted from a clinic or general behavioral health product. Reviewing it before a renewal date locks in is the lowest-risk time to make the comparison.

What CareHub gives you

Everything your team needs, in one place

VAMMIS certified transactions

Check eligibility with 270, follow claims with 276, and submit 837P and 837I claims through CareHub's certified connection to Virginia Medicaid.

Records ready for licensing review

Full audit trails show who documented what and when, giving compliance leads a clear history to share with DBHDS licensing staff.

ISP and Part V auto-population

Plan uploads fill in the details DSPs document against, so daily notes stay tied to each person's actual plan.

Regulatory monitoring

CareHub includes regulatory monitoring so compliance staff can keep an eye on the requirements that shape their documentation.

Behavioral consultation support

BC-specific session notes and a behavior registry give consultants documentation designed for their service, not bolted onto a general note type.

MAR and incidents together

Voice-assisted MAR and incident reports live beside daily notes, so switching does not mean scattering records across new tools.

The problem

What slows Virginia providers down

  • The renewal notice window is short, and by the time anyone notices, the contract has already rolled over for another year.
  • Nobody wants to start a system search from zero two months before a deadline, so the same system gets renewed by default.
  • The current system was chosen years ago for a different set of needs and never really fit DD waiver work.
  • Switching feels risky without knowing what the new system's licensing and billing setup actually looks like first.
  • Staff assume any change means relearning everything, when a well-built system should feel more familiar, not less.
DBHDS Statewide

A Virginia system, reviewed on your timeline

DD waiver providers across Virginia work with DMAS for Medicaid billing and DBHDS for waiver licensing, no matter which DBHDS region an agency sits in. A system that was not built around that split shows its seams eventually, often at renewal time when an agency finally has room to ask if there is something better.

CareHub was designed by a former DD residential program director in Virginia around exactly that split, with VAMMIS billing and licensing-ready documentation together in one system. Reviewing it before a contract auto-renews costs nothing but the conversation.

How it works

From daily work to done

  1. Check the renewal window

    Find the notice deadline in the current contract so there is real room to compare before it auto-renews.

  2. See CareHub against the current system

    Walk through VAMMIS billing, licensing-ready records, and Part V auto-population side by side with what the agency has now.

  3. Plan the switch, not just the decision

    Talk through what moving records and training staff would actually look like before committing to anything.

  4. Give notice with a plan in hand

    If CareHub is the better fit, the renewal deadline becomes the moment to act on it instead of the moment that decides for you.
