The "Billing Bottleneck" Problem
Manual entry of therapy session invoices, including CPT codes for psychotherapy (90834) and E/M services, risks HIPAA violations through unsecured data handling and delays payer reimbursements by an average of 30-45 days
Coordinating approvals for group practice billing eats into clinician availability for patient care
Inconsistent ICD-10 coding for mental health services, such as anxiety disorders (F41.1) or major depressive disorder (F32.9), leads to claim denials and lost revenue from insurers, with denial rates up to 25% in behavioral health
Juggling EHR data from systems like Epic or Cerner with accounting software creates error-prone manual reconciliations in teletherapy setups, increasing PHI exposure risks
Delayed invoicing for sliding-scale fees disrupts cash flow in community mental health centers
Delayed invoicing for sliding-scale fees based on patient income verification disrupts cash flow in community mental health centers, leading to 20% underbilling in FQHCs

This unified approach eliminates the chaos of disconnected subscriptions, ensuring every automation respects HIPAA protocols while prioritizing patient privacy. Like a vigilant triage nurse streamlining emergency intake, our system triages invoices intelligently, flagging anomalies before they escalate into compliance risks. The result? A scalable asset you own, not rent, driving measurable efficiency in your patient-centric operations.
What Makes Us Different:
Unlock Quantifiable Gains: Time, Cost, and Compliance
Reclaim 15-20 Hours Weekly for Patient Focus
Reclaim 15-20 Hours Weekly for Patient Focus: Clinicians in mental health practices often lose precious time to billing drudgery, such as verifying prior authorizations for TMS therapy. Our automation handles invoice generation and submission for services like group CBT sessions, freeing up 15-20 hours per week per admin—time better spent on therapy sessions or crisis interventions. Benchmarks from the APA show a 40% productivity boost, allowing practices to serve 25% more patients without added staff, directly improving access to care for underserved populations.
Achieve 3-6 Month ROI Through Cost Reductions
Achieve 3-6 Month ROI Through Cost Reductions: Manual invoicing for behavioral health claims costs mental health groups an average of $50,000 annually in lost efficiency, per MGMA data. By automating eligibility checks and ERA posting, practices see a 60% drop in processing expenses and faster reimbursements—often within 10 days versus 45 for Medicare claims. This translates to an ROI of 300% in the first year, with sustained savings as your custom system scales with practice growth and handles volume spikes during mental health awareness months.
Ensure Ironclad HIPAA Compliance and Audit-Ready Records
Ensure Ironclad HIPAA Compliance and Audit-Ready Records: Regulatory scrutiny in mental health billing, including OCR audits for PHI breaches, is relentless. Our solutions embed AES-256 encryption and audit trails from the ground up, reducing compliance risks by 90% and automating de-identification for research data sharing. Practices report zero audit findings post-implementation, with automated flagging of sensitive PHI like suicide risk assessments ensuring patient trust remains unbroken amid rising data breach threats in telepsychiatry.
What Clients Say
"Before AIQ Labs, our small therapy group was drowning in manual claims for Medicaid patients with CPT 90837 for extended sessions—it took two full days weekly just to reconcile and code for co-occurring disorders. Now, invoices process automatically via integrated EDI, and we've cut reimbursement waits from 30 to 7 days. It's transformed our cash flow without compromising patient confidentiality, allowing us to expand virtual IOP services."
Dr. Elena Ramirez
Clinical Director, Harmony Mental Health Clinic, serving 200+ Medicaid-enrolled patients in urban Chicago
"As a solo practitioner handling telehealth for anxiety disorders coded as F41.1, I was spending evenings on billing instead of charting progress notes. Their custom AI integrated with my SimplePractice EHR seamlessly, automating superbills and saving me 12 hours a week. Claims approval hit 95% with Blue Cross, and I finally have bandwidth for that pro-bono work with veterans I always wanted."
Sarah Thompson, LMFT
Founder and Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, Mindful Pathways Therapy, specializing in telehealth for 150 annual clients
"Our community center serves underserved populations with sliding-scale fees adjusted via HRSA guidelines, but tracking it all manually led to errors and denials on FQHC claims. AIQ's system automates eligibility verification and coding while staying HIPAA-tight with role-based access. In three months, we recovered $15K in previously lost reimbursements from state Medicaid—game-changer for sustaining our trauma-informed care programs."

Why We're Different
What's Included
Common Questions
How does your invoice automation ensure HIPAA compliance for mental health data?
HIPAA is non-negotiable in our designs. We use end-to-end encryption for all data in transit and at rest, with granular access controls that limit PHI exposure to authorized users only. Our AI models are trained on de-identified datasets, and every automation step includes audit trails logging who accessed what and when. For mental health practices, this means session notes and billing codes are processed without ever storing sensitive details insecurely. We've passed independent SOC 2 audits, and clients like community clinics report zero compliance issues since implementation. This built-in security reduces your risk profile significantly, allowing focus on care rather than paperwork worries.
Yes, we specialize in deep, two-way integrations tailored to healthcare tools. For TherapyNotes users, our AI pulls session data directly via secure APIs, automates coding, and pushes invoices back without manual exports. This eliminates the double-entry errors common in 60% of practices. We've integrated with over 20 EHR platforms, ensuring compatibility with your setup—whether it's for solo therapists or larger groups handling EMDR or family counseling. Setup takes 2-4 weeks, with full customization to match your workflow, like auto-flagging superbills for insurance verification.
Small practices typically save 12-18 hours weekly. Manual invoicing for 20-30 sessions involves logging notes, coding, and submissions—our AI condenses this to minutes. For instance, a solo LMFT might spend 4 hours weekly on claims; post-automation, it's under 30 minutes, with 95% accuracy reducing rework. Industry benchmarks from similar implementations show a 70% efficiency gain, translating to $8,000-$12,000 annual savings in admin time at average rates. This lets you book more appointments or reduce overtime, directly boosting your bottom line.
We design flexibility into the core system. For sliding-scale fees common in mental health, the AI assesses eligibility based on your criteria—patient income brackets, session types—and applies adjustments automatically during invoice generation. Grants or pro-bono tracking? We build custom modules to allocate and report these separately, ensuring accurate reimbursements and tax compliance. A recent project for a nonprofit clinic automated 50+ variable fee structures, cutting processing time by 80% and preventing $5,000 in annual miscoding losses. It's all tailored to your exact needs, not rigid templates.
Absolutely, scalability is engineered in from the start. Our architecture uses modular AI components that handle volume spikes, like adding 50% more patients during back-to-school anxiety surges. For growing practices, we provision cloud resources dynamically, maintaining 99.9% uptime even for multi-site operations. Unlike subscription tools that cap users, our owned system expands without extra costs— we've scaled solutions for practices from 5 to 50 clinicians, supporting features like centralized billing for satellite offices. Ongoing support ensures it evolves with your needs, from basic teletherapy to full-spectrum behavioral health services.
Costs are project-specific, starting at $25,000 for a core implementation tailored to small practices, scaling to $60,000+ for complex multi-provider setups with advanced analytics. This includes discovery, build, integration, and three months of optimization. Unlike monthly subscriptions averaging $2,000/year per tool, you own the system outright, achieving payback in 4-6 months via time savings and faster reimbursements. We provide a detailed ROI projection during consultation, factoring your volume—e.g., a 15-provider group might save $40,000 annually. It's an investment in efficiency, not an expense.
