The Problem

Prior auths for Psychiatry & Behavioral Health procedures sit in SimplePractice queues for days — the patient reschedules, the surgeon's OR time goes unused, and the practice eats the margin.

What We Build in TherapyNotes

AI checks payer-specific PA requirements, pulls the chart from SimplePractice, submits the PA with clinical justification, and tracks status — turnaround drops from 7 days to under 48 hours. Purpose-built for teams running TherapyNotes — uses the native API or agent integration so nothing leaves the system of record.
