Sentinel
The autonomous auditor for ABA clinical documentation.
Payer audits, denials, and clawbacks start with documentation. Sentinel is Coralia's answer: an AI system that reviews every day's session notes, flags compliance and quality problems against a clinical rule catalog, drafts the corrections, and asks your team to approve — every single day, without being asked.
How Sentinel works
1.Reads every note, every day
Sentinel sweeps each day's session notes per client — RBT direct-service notes, BCBA protocol-modification notes, caregiver-guidance notes — nothing is sampled, nothing is skipped.
2.Checks against a clinical catalog
Each note is evaluated against an ABA-specific catalog of documentation controls: prohibited clinical language with proper replacements, required narrative elements, and payer-facing quality rules. Every finding cites the specific rule it violates.
3.Drafts the correction
Sentinel rewrites the narrative resolving every finding — in the therapist's own voice, changing nothing that was clinically stated, inventing nothing that wasn't.
4.A second AI verifies
An independent AI reviewer re-audits the correction before anyone sees it: every claim checked, every change justified. Corrections that don't survive verification never reach your team.
5.A human approves
Your clinical team reviews and approves each correction. Nothing modifies a clinical record without a person signing off — autonomy in the analysis, humans in control of the record.
Why this is different from AI note writers
Most ABA software now offers AI that helps you draft a note faster. Sentinel solves the harder problem: whether the notes your team already wrote would survive scrutiny. A drafting assistant saves minutes; an auditor protects the revenue behind every session and the clinical record behind every child.
That distinction matters because payers don't audit your drafting speed — they audit your documentation. Cloned notes, vague narratives, and missing elements are what trigger recoupments.
Documentation problems surface the day they happen — not in a payer audit two years later.
Prohibited or risky clinical language is caught before a note supports a claim.
Every note type is held to the same standard, whoever wrote it, however busy the week was.
Each correction carries a confidence score, so the shakiest items surface first for clinical review.
Documentation that's ready before anyone asks.
