The challenge

A Licensed Mental Health Counselor wanted to leave a community clinic and launch a private telehealth-first practice. She needed insurance paneling fast — no income runway.

Our approach

  • Built complete CAQH ProView profile and attested.
  • Submitted credentialing applications to 6 payers in week 1.
  • Set up SimplePractice EHR and Doxy.me HIPAA-compliant telehealth.
  • Drafted intake, consent, NPP, and BAA stack.
  • Coordinated malpractice via HPSO.

The outcome

All 6 payers contracted within 90 days. Practice reached full caseload (28 weekly clients) by month 5. Monthly collections at $14,000.
