Focus on Clinical Care
Without the Intake & Admin Burnout.
Stop losing 20+ hours a week chasing unreturned intake paperwork, verifying out-of-network copays, coordinating waitlists, and logging superbills. From SimplePractice, TherapyNotes, and Jane App EHR optimization to insurance benefit verification (VOB), credit card on-file collections, and HIPAA-compliant patient communication. Supervised by a Dedicated Project Manager at $0 extra charge.
Dedicated Project Manager Model
Therapists and practice owners generate impact and revenue inside 50-minute clinical sessions—not fielding voicemail triage, chasing uncompleted consent forms, or wrestling insurance portals. You coordinate directly with one dedicated project lead who enforces strict mental health front-desk SOPs.
- Compassionate Inquiry Triage: Answering prospective clients with high empathy, matching clinical specialties, and verifying state jurisdiction licensing.
- Verification of Benefits (VOB) & Copays: Calling commercial insurers (Aetna, BCBS, Cigna, Optum) to confirm deductibles, co-insurance, and pre-auth requirements.
- EHR Packets & Superbills: Tracking telehealth waivers, HIPAA acknowledgments, release of information (ROI) docs, and monthly superbills.
- $0 Fee for Supervision: 100% of your invoice goes strictly to actual productive practice administration hours worked.

Here is how SageDoer helps counseling practice owners eliminate billing disputes, streamline client onboarding, and reclaim clinical headspace.
"Before SageDoer, answering Psychology Today voicemails between 50-minute clinical sessions was exhausting me. My VA responds within 15 minutes, checks their out-of-network insurance in Availity, and gets intake packets completed in SimplePractice. Intake conversion increased by 45%."
"We operate an 8-clinician group practice. Verifying insurance deductibles was a full-time nightmare. Our SageDoer VA calls commercial payers, logs copays in TherapyNotes, and ensures every client has a valid card on file. Zero unpaid balances in six months."
"Our VA manages our Spruce Health SMS line with extraordinary warmth. When cancellations happen, they text our waitlist and fill the slot within an hour. Having our Dedicated PM audit timesheets and HIPAA compliance gives me total peace of mind."
"Hiring an in-person receptionist in California would have cost our practice $4,200 a month plus benefits. SageDoer gives us a dedicated, HIPAA-trained professional at $960 a month who runs our Jane App portal seamlessly."
