What it does

What you get

How it works

  1. On Start Here, type your practice name, tax year and no-show fee.
  2. On Rates, enter your full fee for each service code, then each insurance plan's contracted rate.
  3. Log every scheduled session on Sessions with a client ID (never a name), the code, payer and attendance.
  4. When money arrives, fill Client paid or Insurance paid on the session, and add the deposit on Income.
  5. Paste your EHR billing export on EHR Import, then check Reconciliation shows Match and Balanced each month.
  6. Work the Claims tab weekly: anything over 30 days deserves a call to the payer.

Questions

Does it work in Excel and Google Sheets?

Yes. It works in Microsoft Excel 2010 or later, in Google Sheets (open Google Sheets, then File, Import, and upload the file) and in LibreOffice. It is not a Numbers or Notion file. Every total is a live formula in all three.

Excel shows a yellow Protected View bar. Is something wrong?

No. Excel opens every downloaded file in Protected View. Click Enable Editing and the file works as normal. The numbers already show before you click, so you can look first.

Is this tax advice?

No. It is a bookkeeping tool, not tax advice. Tax figures such as the quarterly set-asides are estimates to confirm with a tax professional, and the Schedule C totals are for your preparer, not a filed return.

What if it is not right for me?

Write to us within 30 days and we will fix the problem or refund you. Reply to your receipt email or write to rowfolio@gmail.com. Nothing physical ships, so there is nothing to return.

Can I change the categories?

Yes. Categories and dropdown choices live on the Lists tab, and you can add or rename them. Formula cells are protected against accidental typing, with no password, so you can unprotect a tab if you need to.
