Referral Management & Loop Closure for Therapy Practice Managers with Alma
Run referral management & loop closure on autopilot inside Alma.
The Problem
Incoming Mental Health referrals sit in fax queues and SimplePractice work lists, and outgoing referrals die without loop closure — both cost the practice revenue and clinical quality.
What We Build in Alma
AI triages incoming referrals by acuity, schedules them into open slots in SimplePractice, and chases outgoing referral loop closure with consulting providers — no referral gets lost. Purpose-built for teams running Alma — uses the native API or agent integration so nothing leaves the system of record.
