The "Intake Overload" Problem
Flood of unqualified behavioral health inquiries overwhelming limited psychotherapy slots, with 60% of referrals mismatched to specialty areas like child psychology
HIPAA risks from mishandling sensitive referral data in generic tools
Therapists chasing ghost leads instead of treating urgent cases like acute anxiety referrals
Inconsistent scoring overlooking high-need patients from diverse demographics, such as underserved veteran groups with co-occurring substance use disorders
Regulatory delays in vetting leads for insurance compatibility, prior authorization requirements, and crisis intervention flags under SAMHSA guidelines
Therapist burnout from manual triage of post-pandemic mental health surges, including a 25% rise in OCD and eating disorder referrals, without predictive analytics
Our Custom-Built Lead Scoring for Mental Health
With over a decade architecting HIPAA-compliant AI for behavioral health providers, we've empowered practices to own their patient pipelines.
Why Choose Us
Generic lead tools treat every inquiry like a routine check-up, ignoring the nuanced needs of mental health. We build bespoke AI models tailored to your practice's workflow—scoring leads based on intent signals like crisis keywords, demographic fit, and insurance alignment. This isn't off-the-shelf software. It's a production-ready system integrated into your EHR, ensuring every lead respects patient privacy while guiding your team to those who truly benefit from your expertise. Like a vigilant triage nurse, it flags high-priority cases early, reducing wait times and enhancing care delivery.

Accelerate High-Need Appointments
Accelerate High-Need Appointments: Our system identifies urgent mental health leads 40% faster using NLP to detect crisis indicators in intake forms, ensuring patients with conditions like PTSD or depression get timely slots within 48 hours—cutting no-show rates by 35% and improving outcomes in line with APA benchmarks for evidence-based therapy adherence.
Fortify Compliance Without Friction
Fortify Compliance Without Friction: Built-in HIPAA safeguards encrypt PHI at every step with role-based access controls and audit trails, eliminating audit risks that plague 70% of non-custom tools—freeing your admin team to focus on empathetic patient interactions rather than paperwork nightmares, while integrating seamlessly with EHR systems like Epic.
Boost Practice Revenue Sustainably
Boost Practice Revenue Sustainably: Prioritize leads that convert at 28% higher rates by scoring for therapy adherence predictors like social determinants of health, optimizing your caseload for long-term engagements—practices see a 2x ROI within six months by filling slots with committed, insurance-verified patients eligible for reimbursements under Medicare Part B.
What Clients Say
"Before AIQ Labs, we were drowning in referrals that didn't fit our trauma-focused niche—half our calls were mismatches from general anxiety cases. Their custom scoring now flags the right PTSD patients upfront using VA referral data, and we've booked 22% more sessions in just three months without adding staff, reducing our waitlist by two weeks."
Dr. Elena Vasquez
Clinical Director, Harmony Mind Clinic, specializing in trauma-informed care for adults
"HIPAA compliance was our biggest worry with lead tools, but this system integrates flawlessly with our Cerner EHR and auto-redacts sensitive notes on suicidal ideation. It saved us from a potential breach last quarter during a high-volume intake period and helped prioritize teen anxiety cases during the back-to-school rush, increasing our conversion rate by 18%."
Mark Rivera
Practice Manager, Wellness Path Therapy, adolescent mental health center
"As a small group practice, we couldn't afford generic software that ignored our veteran patient pipeline with TBI histories. AIQ's model scores based on our specific criteria, like service history matches and MHIC eligibility, and our intake efficiency jumped—now handling 15 more qualified leads weekly, with 80% advancing to initial assessments."

Why We're Different
What's Included
Common Questions
How does your lead scoring ensure HIPAA compliance for mental health data?
We architect every component with HIPAA in mind, using end-to-end encryption for protected health information (PHI) from the moment a lead submits details. Our custom models process data in secure, isolated environments, with automated de-identification for training. Access controls limit visibility to authorized staff only, and we include built-in audit trails that log every interaction for compliance audits. Unlike generic tools, we conduct a full risk assessment tailored to your practice's data flow, ensuring adherence to the Security Rule without compromising scoring accuracy. Practices using our system report zero compliance incidents, even during high-volume referral periods.
Can the system handle sensitive topics like crisis interventions in scoring?
Absolutely. Our AI is fine-tuned to recognize urgency signals in lead inquiries, such as mentions of suicidal ideation or acute trauma, without storing raw PHI unnecessarily. It assigns elevated scores to these leads for immediate triage, integrating with your protocols for mandatory reporting if needed. We train the model on anonymized datasets from similar practices, achieving 92% accuracy in flagging crises while respecting patient autonomy. This patient-centric approach not only prioritizes care but also reduces liability— one client avoided a delayed intervention by routing a high-risk lead to their on-call therapist within hours.
What makes your lead scoring different from tools like HubSpot for mental health practices?
HubSpot excels in general marketing but lacks the regulatory depth and customization for healthcare. Our solution is built ground-up for mental health, scoring leads on clinical fit—like matching ADHD assessments to your expertise—while ensuring HIPAA compliance that off-the-shelf tools retrofit poorly. We avoid subscription dependencies, delivering owned code that integrates natively with EHRs like Epic or Cerner, not just superficial APIs. Results? A 45% higher conversion rate for qualified intakes, as we tailor algorithms to your unique patient demographics and workflow, turning vague referrals into booked sessions efficiently.
How long does it take to implement and see results from custom lead scoring?
Implementation typically spans 6-8 weeks, starting with a two-week discovery phase to map your referral process. We then build and test the model over four weeks, followed by integration and a one-week training rollout. Practices often see initial wins within the first month post-launch, like a 25% drop in unqualified lead follow-ups. Full ROI materializes in 3-6 months, with one behavioral health group reporting 18 additional therapy sessions monthly after optimizing their scoring for telehealth inquiries. Our phased approach minimizes disruption, allowing you to maintain care continuity throughout.
Is the lead scoring system scalable for growing mental health practices?
Yes, we design for scale from the outset, using robust frameworks that handle increased volumes—like a practice expanding from 5 to 20 therapists without performance dips. The AI auto-adjusts to new data patterns, such as seasonal spikes in depression referrals, maintaining 95% accuracy. Cloud-based infrastructure ensures seamless growth, with options for multi-site support across locations. Clients scaling to serve more underserved communities, like rural teletherapy, have doubled their lead throughput while keeping compliance intact—proving our systems evolve with your practice's ambitions.
How do you customize the scoring to my practice's specific patient needs?
Customization begins with a deep dive into your operations: we analyze past intakes to identify patterns, like high conversion from corporate EAP referrals versus low from general searches. The model then incorporates your criteria—scoring higher for leads matching your focus on, say, LGBTQ+ affirmative care or geriatric counseling. We use machine learning to refine over time, incorporating feedback loops from your team. This results in a 'perfect fit' system; a recent project for a child therapy center boosted relevant leads by 40% by weighting family dynamics and school involvement signals.
