Built for Lactation Care
NuBloom was designed around how lactation consultants actually work, not adapted from a generic EHR.
Your Schedule, Your Way
In-home, in-office, virtual. However you see families, the calendar keeps up.
- See your full agenda grouped by day so you can plan ahead
- See conflicts and double-bookings before they happen
- Start a visit note directly from the appointment
- SMS appointment reminders so families never miss a visit
- Block off time for vacations or personal days
The Full Picture of Every Family
Patients, babies, birth details, health history, insurance. You shouldn't have to dig through separate systems for this.
- Birth and delivery records, including gestational age and complications
- Individual baby profiles with feeding method, weight, growth charts, and health notes
- Document storage for consent forms, intake, and insurance cards
- Insurance and billing info attached to the patient
- Find any patient in seconds with search and status filters
Charting That Knows Lactation
LATCH and IBFAT scoring, jaundice classification, structured oral and breast exams, PHQ-4 and EPDS mood screening, feeding and return-to-work plans. Not a generic SOAP note with blanks you have to fill in yourself.
- LATCH and IBFAT assessment tools with automatic scoring and severity badges
- Jaundice assessment with visual classification, lab values, treatments, and risk factors
- PHQ-4 and EPDS postpartum mood screening built into every maternal exam
- Feeding plans with supplementation protocols and pump-and-return-to-work planning
- Evidence-based clinical snippets sourced from ABM protocols — insert with one click
- Auto-save, signed immutable notes with version history, and pull-forward from previous visits
Look It Up Without Leaving the Chart
You shouldn't have to switch to UpToDate or dig through saved PDFs mid-visit. Common lactation conditions, lab ranges, and clinical decision support are built in.
- Condition-specific guides for tongue-tie, mastitis, low supply, jaundice, and more
- Lab interpretation tables with normal ranges and clinical context
- Decision trees that walk through differential diagnosis step by step
- Bookmark articles you reference often — they are one tap away
- Content sourced from published evidence — not crowd-sourced or AI-generated
Billing Without the Runaround
You already know how complicated lactation billing is. NuBloom takes you from visit note to superbill to payment without the runaround, so claims stop falling through the cracks.
- Lactation-specific ICD-10, CPT, and HCPCS codes are already there so you are not looking them up
- Create superbills directly from visit records in a couple of taps
- Send invoices and always know what is draft, sent, paid, or overdue
- Follow every claim from submission to payment so nothing gets lost
- One report for revenue, outstanding balances, and payment history
Messaging That Stays in the Chart
Patients have questions between visits. Answer them without giving out your cell number or switching to a separate messaging app.
- HIPAA-compliant conversations tied to each patient record
- See unread messages across all your families
- Search past conversations when you need to find something
- Flag urgent messages with a reason — they surface at the top of your work queue
- Patients message you through the portal — you reply from the app
Home Visits Without the WiFi Worry
Rural areas, hospital dead zones, spotty apartment WiFi. You've been there. Chart on the spot instead of scribbling notes to type up later.
- Save your families' charts before you head out, up to 100 by default (configurable up to 500)
- Charts for upcoming appointments download on their own 48 hours ahead
- Write and edit notes without a connection
- Everything syncs automatically when you are back online — no manual step
- All data on your device is encrypted
- Same app on your phone, tablet, or laptop
One Screen for Everything on Your Plate
Unsigned notes, unread messages, pending claims, open tasks. Instead of checking four different places, check one.
- See unsigned visit notes and take care of them right away
- Track insurance claims from pending to paid — or denied, and reopen them
- Manage tasks, reminders, and document signing deadlines
- Snooze things you can't deal with right now
- Know exactly what's left at the end of the day
A Portal Your Patients Will Actually Use
Growth charts, messaging, intake forms, and billing. Families handle the routine stuff on their own, and your practice looks good doing it.
- Parents track their baby's growth with WHO percentile charts between visits
- Intake and consent forms families sign electronically before the visit
- You see who signed, when, and whether they signed from the portal or in your office
- Secure messaging so they can reach you without your personal number
- View upcoming appointments and book new visits through the booking page
- Billing and payment history they can review and pay on their own
- Works on their phone, no app download needed
- You control exactly which sections families can see
Know How Your Practice Is Doing
Stop guessing whether your practice is profitable. See the real numbers without maintaining a spreadsheet.
- See where your revenue is coming from and whether it is growing
- Spot patterns in visit types, no-shows, and cancellations
- Know exactly how much is sitting in unpaid claims
- Filter by this week, this month, last quarter, or any custom range
Growth Charts That Speak Your Language
Plot weight, length, and head circumference on WHO standard curves and see where each baby falls. No separate spreadsheet, no manual percentile lookup.
- WHO weight-for-age, length-for-age, head-circumference-for-age, and weight-for-length charts
- Automatic percentile calculations using the LMS method, adjusted for preterm corrected age
- Full measurement history with date, value, and percentile in one table
- Edit or add measurements right from the growth tab
- Parents see their baby's growth chart in the patient portal
- Weighted feed tracking with gram and ounce unit support
Video Telehealth Built Into the Visit
In-home, in-office, or on a screen. Create a virtual appointment, join the NuBloom video room from the visit, and keep charting in the same workflow.
- Start a managed NuBloom video visit from the linked appointment
- Send the patient join link by email or text from the visit
- Keep the chart open while the call runs in its own tab
- See whether the family has joined before you start the consult
- Works alongside in-person appointments, mix visit types as needed
- Use your own external video link when a visit needs a different room
Get Paid Without Chasing Anyone
No more Venmo requests, lost checks, or "I'll bring it next time." Patients pay through the portal or from a payment link you send. Money goes to your bank account.
- Patients see a "Pay Now" button on every open invoice in their portal
- Copy a payment link to send over text, email, or wherever the family prefers
- Money goes to your bank account through Stripe, nothing passes through us
- Connect your Stripe account in a few minutes from practice settings
- Payments update automatically on the invoice, no manual reconciliation
Let Families Book Their Own Visits
Stop texting back and forth to find a time that works. Set your available services, hours, and locations, and families book directly. Both of you get a confirmation.
- Your own booking page with a shareable link, put it on your website or in your email signature
- Patients see only the services, locations, and hours you have opened up
- Confirmation emails go to both you and the family
- New patients create an account during booking, so they show up in your system right away
- Set buffer time between appointments so you are not running back to back
