Telehealth Psych Practice Licensed Across 10 States in 120 Days

The challenge

A board-certified psychiatrist wanted to launch a cash-pay telehealth practice serving 10 states. She had her Florida license, no compact membership, and no state-by-state strategy.

Our approach

• Applied for an IMLC Letter of Qualification with Florida as the State of Principal License.
• Issued IMLC licenses in 7 compact states (TX, AZ, CO, GA, NV, IL, MN) within 14 days each.
• Filed individual reciprocity applications in 3 non-compact states (CA, NY, NJ).
• Stacked DEA registrations for each state with a separate practice address.
• Established HIPAA-compliant telehealth platform with state-specific intake forms and consent.

The outcome

All 10 state licenses active in 118 days. Practice opened on schedule and reached $42,000 monthly cash collections by month 6.
