## The Problem

Booking a Mental Health case means coordinating surgeon, facility, anesthesia, equipment, and PA — one missing piece delays the patient by weeks.

## What We Build in Alma

AI orchestrates the booking across SimplePractice and facility systems, verifies insurance, confirms PA, and secures equipment — time-to-surgery drops and OR utilization climbs. Purpose-built for teams running Alma — uses the native API or agent integration so nothing leaves the system of record.

## Alma Integration Approach

1. **Audit your Alma configuration.** We map the specific Alma objects, custom fields, and workflows the automation needs to touch for your mental health practice.
2. **Build on the Alma API or agent.** Integration happens inside Alma — no data leaves the system, no parallel tool for your team to learn, no license changes.
3. **Human-in-the-loop handoff.** Every automation routes exceptions back to a human in Alma with full context — AI handles the 80%, your team owns the judgment calls.
