How they compare

Both platforms serve DME distributors, but they're built for different company sizes and operational philosophies.

Capability ScriptRelay Bonafide (WellSky)
Prescription intake AI OCR + e-fax
Fax, portal, and direct intake parsed by AI. Orders auto-route to the right workflow. No manual data entry.
Real-time eligibility + document routing
Real-time eligibility checks and intuitive document routing. CSR-guided workflows. Some fax still required for legacy channels.
Insurance verification Autonomous AI
270/271 loop runs automatically on order intake. Coverage gaps, prior-auth requirements, and PA window expiry all flagged before staff sees the order.
Real-time checks, staff-initiated
Real-time eligibility checks available. Verification is staff-driven — CSR initiates and interprets results. Gaps require manual follow-up.
Auto-reorder logic Native outreach engine
Patient contact sequences, compliance window tracking, revenue leakage recovery. Built in from day one.
Partner ecosystem (Snapworx, S3, CMB)
Resupply managed through partners. Resupply function lives outside the core ERP.
Denial management workflow AI root cause + appeal
CARC code detection, overturn probability scoring, appeal workflow automation. Denials caught before submission.

<\!-- FOUNDER QUOTE -->

"Bonafide is a legit enterprise platform. If you're managing multi-facility operations with complex billing integrations and WellSky is already in your stack, it makes sense. I'm not smart enough to lie about that. But if you're mid-market and you want software that moves fast — where denials get caught before they're submitted, where reorders run on autopilot, where you can actually talk to the person who built the thing — that's why we built ScriptRelay."

— Anthony Schuler, Founder
