Scope and acceptance
These Terms & Conditions apply to your use of the RateScope public website, public benchmark previews, report-library pages, waitlist and availability email flows, and any paid digital benchmark reports delivered through connected checkout and fulfillment systems.
By browsing the site, submitting your email through a report or availability form, purchasing a report when checkout is live, or otherwise using the service, you agree to these terms. If you do not agree, do not use the service.
Business-use framing
RateScope is designed for therapists, group practice operators, billing and credentialing teams, consultants, and advisors making business or operational decisions. The service is offered for commercial and internal business use, not as a consumer entertainment product.
By using the service or purchasing a report, you represent that you are doing so for commercial or internal business purposes, not as a consumer transaction.
The site is not directed to children, and the service is not designed for submission or handling of patient records, clinical files, or other treatment data.
Products, previews, and delivery
The public site shows benchmark previews derived from payer files published under federal Transparency in Coverage rules. Paid products are one-time digital benchmark reports tied to a defined payer, state, CPT code, credential bucket, and release edition.
When checkout is enabled, payment processing and digital commerce handling are expected to run through Lemon Squeezy as merchant of record. Delivery is expected to occur by secure download link, email, or similar fulfillment flow. We may resend a fresh delivery link manually if a prior delivery link expires or fails.
Unless a product page says otherwise, a purchase is a single one-time purchase for the specific report edition described on that page. A refreshed edition is a separate release and is not an automatic subscription renewal.
License and allowed use
Subject to these terms, we grant you a limited, revocable, non-exclusive license to use purchased reports for your own internal business purposes.
- Use within your own practice, team, billing function, credentialing staff, or internal decision process is allowed.
- Sharing with your own advisors, accountants, lawyers, or consultants is allowed when it supports your internal use.
- The license does not transfer ownership of the report, the site, or the underlying product design.
Prohibited uses
You may not:
- redistribute, resell, sublicense, post publicly, or publish the full paid report outside your organization;
- use the service to build a competing report library or benchmark product from our packaged output;
- use the service for unlawful coordination, price-fixing, market allocation, collective rate demands, harassment, or other anticompetitive conduct;
- misrepresent our benchmark outputs as a promise of your own future contract terms or payment results; or
- submit patient records, treatment data, or other information you do not have the right to share.
Data and benchmark disclaimers
RateScope reports are benchmark-information products built from public machine-readable files and related public reference data. They are provided for informational purposes only.
- Data source: benchmark inputs come from publicly required Transparency in Coverage files and public provider reference sources such as NPPES.
- No affiliation: RateScope is not affiliated with, sponsored by, or endorsed by any named payer.
- No professional advice: nothing on the site is legal, financial, medical, reimbursement, or negotiation advice.
- No guarantee: benchmark figures are observed public distributions, not a promise of your own contract rate, renewal terms, or future payment.
- Aggregation only: we publish and sell aggregate benchmark statistics, not patient data and not an individual provider-rate lookup product.
- Contract review: buyers should review their payer contracts to confirm there are no remaining restrictions on use of external benchmarking materials.
The service is provided on an “as is” and “as available” basis to the fullest extent permitted by law. We do not warrant that the site will always be uninterrupted, error-free, complete, or fit for a particular purpose.
Payments, refunds, and limited remedy
Prices, product scope, and availability may change over time. Product pages, checkout pages, and report descriptions control for the specific product being offered at the time of purchase.
RateScope offers a 14-day no-questions refund on all orders. If a report does not provide useful information about your reimbursement position, email support@ratescope.co within 14 days of purchase and we will refund your order in full. The full policy is at Refund Policy and governs in the event of any conflict with these Terms.
Separately, if a delivered report file does not render correctly or contains an obvious product error, contact support@ratescope.co within 48 hours for an accelerated remedy, which may include a corrected file, a replacement delivery link, a credit, or a refund.
When checkout is live, third-party payment processor terms may also apply to the transaction and payment handling.
Liability, indemnity, and changes
To the fullest extent permitted by law, RateScope will not be liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages arising from the service, including lost profits, lost contracts, lost business opportunities, or reliance on benchmark information.
If we are found liable for a claim relating to a paid report, our total liability for that claim will not exceed the amount you paid for the specific product giving rise to the claim.
You agree to indemnify and hold RateScope harmless from claims arising from your misuse of the service, your unlawful or prohibited conduct, your redistribution of paid materials, or your violation of these terms.
We may update these terms from time to time. If we do, we will post the revised version on this page and update the effective date above.
