Behavioral Health / Therapy / Primary Care

Built for clinicians who became business owners by accident.

At 40 sessions/week, the average counseling practice leaves $6,385/month uncollected — in no-shows, under-billed insurance, and documentation overhead. That stops when the engine runs.

The Cost of Staying Put

What your practice loses every month without automation

Not projections. The arithmetic of a 40-session practice at industry benchmarks.

Insurance billing gap

$1,600/mo

At 40 sessions/week with 70% insurance billing, a 4–5 point gap below the 95% MGMA collection benchmark costs $1,600/month in under-collected revenue.

No-show revenue lost

$1,285/mo

15% no-show rate × 40 sessions × $150 = $900/week. Automated recall sequences recover 1 in 3. That's $1,285/month sitting on the table.

Documentation overhead

$1,500/mo

At 40 sessions/month, a therapist spending 30–50 min per SOAP note loses 20–33 hours of billable time. At $75/hr that's $1,500–$2,475/month in documentation labor.

Compliance exposure

$2,000/mo risk

A single HIPAA violation from a missing training record runs $10,000–$50,000. A lapsed therapist credential can trigger $5,000–$20,000 in regulatory fines and interrupt billing.

$6,385/month minimum

left on the table before Fanout value, risk exposure, and vendor coordination costs.
