How they differ
Trellis is billing software, and eligibility is one part of it. Tabruns doesn't file claims. It answers what the patient owes before treatment.
Trellis checks eligibility through Vyne's clearinghouse. Tabruns reads the portal page your staff already opens, which often shows details such as frequency limits and downgrades.
