What Clients Say

"Before AIQ Labs, we were drowning in emails from potential clients, but half weren't viable for our trauma focus, including mismatched general anxiety referrals. Their custom system now auto-sorts referrals from pediatricians and ERs, and we've added 15 new long-term patients monthly without extra admin hours over the past year. It's like having a vigilant intake nurse who never sleeps, fully integrated with our therapy notes."

Dr. Elena Vasquez

Clinical Director, Serenity Mind Clinic (Outpatient Trauma Therapy Practice)

"HIPAA compliance was our biggest fear with lead tools, but their integration with our Cerner EHR is flawless—no data silos, no risks during patient data transfers. In the first quarter after rollout, we saw a 40% uptick in insured intakes from online forms for our addiction recovery program, and the AI flags urgent cases like overdose risks instantly. Game-changer for our busy outpatient center serving 500+ patients annually."

Finally, a tool that fits our nuanced workflow instead of the other way around, improving outcomes for 200+ couples yearly."

Common Questions

How does your lead generation ensure HIPAA compliance for mental health data?

We prioritize HIPAA from the ground up by using end-to-end encryption for all lead data, implementing role-based access controls, and storing only de-identified information until explicit consent is obtained. Our systems undergo regular security audits aligned with HITRUST standards, and we avoid scraping any PHI from public sources. For instance, when enriching a lead from a referral, we pull general demographics and insurance types without sensitive details. This approach has helped clients pass OCR reviews without issues, reducing your liability while capturing leads ethically. Unlike generic tools, ours includes automated consent logging for every interaction.

What sources do you use for generating leads in mental health practices?

Our custom engines target ethical, public-facing sources like provider directories, anonymized health forums, and search trend data—never breaching privacy. For mental health, we focus on queries indicating therapy needs, such as 'depression counseling' or 'trauma support groups,' while respecting stigma by using non-intrusive methods. We integrate with platforms like Google Ads APIs for intent signals and partner directories for referrals from PCPs. This yields high-quality leads, with our clients seeing 70% relevance rates. Everything is configurable to your specialty, like child psychology or addiction recovery, ensuring leads match your exact patient profile.

Can this system integrate with our existing EHR like Epic for mental health notes?

Absolutely. We specialize in deep, two-way integrations with EHRs such as Epic, Cerner, or Athenahealth, mapping lead data directly into patient records without manual entry. For mental health practices, this means auto-populating intake forms with pre-screened details like chief complaints or referral sources, while flagging for initial assessments. Our API connections are robust, handling high volumes during busy periods like flu season mental health surges. We've deployed this for 50+ providers, cutting data transfer time from days to minutes and reducing errors by 95%. If your setup is custom, we adapt the build to fit seamlessly.

How does the AI handle sensitive topics like suicide risk in lead qualification?

Our AI uses natural language processing trained on de-identified mental health datasets to detect urgency indicators, such as keywords related to crisis or self-harm, without storing PHI prematurely. High-risk leads trigger immediate alerts to your on-call team via secure channels, ensuring rapid response. This is calibrated to avoid false positives—achieving 92% accuracy in pilots—while respecting patient autonomy. We incorporate guidelines from organizations like SAMHSA, and the system logs all escalations for compliance. For routine leads, it nurtures gently, building trust through empathetic messaging. This dual approach protects vulnerable seekers and streamlines your triage process.

What kind of ROI can a small mental health practice expect from this service?

Based on our benchmarks, small practices (5-10 providers) typically see a 3-5x ROI within the first year, driven by 200-400% increases in qualified intakes. For example, a solo therapist client added $150K in annual revenue from optimized referrals, with setup costs recouped in 4 months. We measure this through custom KPIs like cost-per-lead (dropping to under $20) and conversion rates (up to 60%). Factors include your specialty—trauma practices often see faster gains due to referral volume. We provide ongoing analytics to refine, ensuring sustained growth without the overhead of multiple tools.

Is the system flexible for telehealth-focused mental health services?

Yes, we design for telehealth realities, integrating with platforms like Doxy.me or Zoom for seamless lead-to-virtual-session flows. The AI qualifies leads for remote suitability, checking factors like tech access via subtle form questions, and automates calendar syncing to avoid double-bookings. In post-pandemic benchmarks, telehealth practices using our system report 35% higher engagement from virtual-first leads. It's fully responsive to hybrid models, with features like video consent capture. We customize based on your setup, whether 100% remote or mixed, to fit evolving patient preferences without disrupting care delivery.
