Have you ever wondered how insurance companies are impacting the mental health industry?  In this episode, I dive into the influence of insurance companies in group practice. Insurance companies are moving away from paying based on the duration of therapy sessions and towards paying for the quality of care provided. This shift could potentially result in lower reimbursements for therapists, unless we advocate for how values-based care should be reimbursed. Additionally, I discuss the trend of insurance companies owning group practices, which gives them control over therapist compensation and allows them to increase profits. It's important for us as mental health practitioners to understand and adapt to these changes in order to thrive in the evolving landscape. Join me to learn more about: The shift from duration-based reimbursement to values-based reimbursement by insurance companies The importance of advocating for fair reimbursement rates and how measurement of care should be based The trend of insurance companies owning group practices and its impact on therapist compensation As group practice owners, it's crucial for us to stay informed and proactive in navigating the influence of insurance companies in group practice. By understanding these changes and advocating for fair reimbursement, we can continue to provide quality care to our clients while also ensuring the sustainability of our practices.

In this episode of the Private Practice Elevation Podcast, we're going to be talking all about making the transition from a solo practice to group practice.   It's a typical business model in private practice: you start out on your own, fill your schedule, then decide to hire more clinicians to start taking on more clients.   However, it's a big shift to go from running a business with one employee (yourself) to growing and managing a team.   And hiring a team can be an extremely challenging part of making that leap to group practice.   Many therapists struggle to find great clinicians that are a good fit for their group practice.   But when you hire the right people - people who are committed to seeing your private practice succeed - it can make a huge difference in how well and how fast you grow your business.   Today we're talking with Amanda Landry from My Private Practice Collective and she's laying out the mistakes therapists make when transitioning from solo to group practice.   She also shares a ton of helpful tips and strategies for marketing your group practice and hiring great therapists to join your team. In This Episode, You'll Learn: Why you should be thinking about your group practice even if you're just starting out as a solo practitioner The mistakes people make in their solo private practice that can be a challenge when transitioning to a group practice model Tips for attracting and hiring clinicians as you build your group practice Ideas for what you can offer your team, beyond compensation, so that you can be competitive and build a place that therapists love to work at Business tasks that you should no longer be doing as you make the shift to group practice owner  How to know when the time is right to hire another therapist How to market your group practice so that you can confidently attract more clients Website and SEO tips for group therapy practices Subscribe & Review in Apple Podcasts If you're not yet subscribed to the podcast I want to encourage you to do that today.

That's where Person Centered Tech comes in!We're chatting with Roy and Liath, the co-founders of Person Centered Tech, about their company and how they use technology and security as a lens to evaluate and update your operations for simplicity, usability, and cost effectiveness in your practice.Roy  Huggins, LPC NCC was an independent web developer for many years before making the transition to a therapy private practice. He quickly found that the mental health profession needed expert guidance on technology topics. Roy founded Person-Centered Tech (PCT) in 2010 after helping answer a colleague's questions about legal and ethical use of email. His research to answer that first question exposed him to the industry's difficulties applying the HIPAA-mandated risk assessment perspective to issues of technology. Liath Dalton is PCT's deputy director and a co-owner. As the group practice service plan manager, Liath is especially passionate about helping group practice leaders be resourced and supported in navigating the security compliance process and identifying the solutions and processes that meet the particular needs of their practices. Liath's consultation area of expertise is focused on selecting the right combination of services and tech that not only meet the legal-ethical needs of mental health practices, but also the functionality, efficiency and cost-effectiveness needs as well.Episode Highlights:The Intersection Between HIPAA Compliance & Financial SecurityThere is a usually a concern for an expense or cost for HIPAA violations/complaintsHaving your practice set up on a robust security foundation from the start is optimal to make a greater impact on saving money in the long runThere are a number of factors within your group practice that require HIPAA compliance, and some softwares for each function are more affordable than othersTeam meetings, virtual sessions, online communication, etc.It is essential to have the right tools to make sure you maintain your client's confidentiality, but that shouldn't have to break the bankHow do you determine the most cost-effective and efficient services for your specific group practice?Most therapists rely on their colleagues and other professionals in their community for suggestions on what services to useWhile the services you're being recommended may be great – they may not be the best fit for YOUR business – that's where Person Centered Tech comes in!Links & Resources:Person Centered Tech Group Practice Tech Podcast Radical Acceptance by Tara BrachBurnout by Emily Nagoski, PhD GreenOak Accounting Therapy For Your Money Podcast

Dr. Fisayo Ositelu completed an MD and MBA, graduating from Stanford University with both degrees in 2013. Rather than complete a clinical residency, he chose to leverage his education by working in Silicon Valley. Using his medical and business training, he assisted his first employer with developing and selling products to healthcare organizations and financial institutions. In June of 2019, he cofounded Gentem where he now serves as CEO. Gentem's mission is to help physicians in private practice get reimbursed better and faster with less administrative cost. It does this by leveraging technology such as artificial intelligence, automation, and applied data analytics to streamline and accelerate the reimbursement process. During our conversation, Fisayo explains how he followed the classic Silicon Valley approach to starting the company. He tapped into his network of investors, including former MBA program classmates, and identified a few key angel investors. The story is quite fascinating. In addition, Fisayo explains how the company can help small practice owners make a comeback, by improving their revenue cycle management and cash flow.  All of the links for the episode can be found at nonclinicalphysicians.com/save-small-group-practices.

In this episode of the Practice of Therapy Podcast, Gordon talks with Alison Pidgeon, LPC about growing your private practice by diversifying your income.  Alison and Gordon talk about what they have learned about growing private practices and then getting to the place where they both bought their own buildings. They also talk about some of the ways in which group practices can be formed and why they have chosen the business models they are using in their practices. Alison and Gordon talk about some of the things they have learned “the hard way” and what how they might have done differently in those beginning stages of their private practices. Meet Alison Pidgeon Alison Pidgeon, MA, LPC, is a licensed professional counselor and the owner of Move Forward Counseling (www.moveforwardlancaster.com) in Lancaster, PA. Her private practice,  which focuses on women's issues, currently consists of six other therapists and two assistants. Alison has recently purchased an office building to house her private practice and will be expanding to a total of 12 therapists in the fall of 2018. In addition, for the past two years, Alison has been working as a business consultant along with Joe Sanok, from Practice of the Practice, (http://www.practiceofthepractice.com/our-services/consulting-with-alison/) for other private practice owners. She loves being an entrepreneur and helping others achieve their dream of being their own boss. Alison's specialty as a consultant is how to have an insurance-based practice, helping those who are just starting out and how to grow from a solo to a group practice. Alison has garnered local media attention for her private practice on TV, radio and in print. She has been a featured guest on the Practice of the Practice podcast, Selling the Couch podcast, and The Therapist Experience podcast. In 2017 Move Forward Counseling won the “Emerging Business of the Year” Award from the Central Penn Business Journal. Buying a Building One of the big steps that Alison and Gordon talked about was the step they both took in buying an office space.  For many therapists and counselors, this step seems very intimidating. But if you think about it, it is really not that much different from buying a house and there are usually more financing options for commercial property.  Especially if you are willing to work with private investors. It's all a matter of doing the research and looking at options. Owning your private practice space, many times actually ends up being much more cost effective when you run the numbers.  Alison gave the example of a non-profit she is involved with. When they ran the numbers, they realized they had paid double what the building was worth through leasing it. Passive Income and Diversifying Income Streams One of the things that helps solidify growth in your practice comes from diversifying your streams of income. There are a lot of ways to do this. One is to create other less traditional products or services to offer clients. Groups, workbooks, seminars, and supervision are just a few. Another great way to create “passive income” is to add other counselors and therapists to form a group practice. What this does, of course, is allow the practice owner to reap the benefits and income from the efforts of others in exchange for providing a place for them to practice. Thinking Long-Term One of the “wish I had known…” issues that Alison mentioned, was she wish she had thought more long-term when she first started her private practice.  She would have spent more time thinking about growth and what that would look like. Especially in terms of adding other counselors. She also realized that she should have thought about what her practice would look like 3-5 years down the road. Insurance vs. Self-Pay One of the ongoing debates in the private practice space is if a practice should get on insurance panels or be strictly private pay. For Alison and Gordon, they do a combination of the two.  Alison talked about really understanding your “break even” point in terms of how much you need to be reimbursed to cover your practice's overhead and expenses. She only stays on the panels that meet or exceed this criteria. The other factor to consider when thinking about being on insurance panels or not, is knowing the demographics of your area and what people can generally afford.  Typically, rural areas are more insurance dependent and a clinician needs to accept insurance in order to get the volume of clients they need to sustain their practice. Group Practices and Their Structure Alison and Gordon talk about some of the ongoing discussions they have had in their mastermind groups around having group practices.  In particular, whether to follow a “1099 Contractor” model or a “W2 Employee” model. Ultimately, it is an individual decision based on the practice owner's preferences and how much oversight they want to have with their therapists. Other factors around this issue depend on state laws and what sort of corporate structure the practice has. In addition, the benefits and “perks” the practice owner wants to provide their employees.   There are any number of ways to set this up, from doing a “fee split” to a flat rate per case or giving a salary or hourly wage.  Again, how it is set up depends solely on individual preferences and business structure. Starting a Group vs. Working in a Group For many clinicians, the idea of being in private practice is very intriguing.  But for some, the idea of running a business is not that appealing. For these folks, joining a group practice really makes more sense.  But for those people that have a bit of an “entrepreneurial spirit” and enjoy the logistics of running a business, becoming a group owner makes more sense. Systems and Processes to Help You Grow One important piece of being able to have sustainable growth in a private practice is to have the systems and processes in place to support this. Alison talks about the importance of documenting your processes and having set systems that help you operate more on “auto-pilot” with your practice. Alison talks about the importance of being able to also collect data about your systems and processes.  For example, knowing how well your intake processes are working and the ability to retain clients and get new clients to actually book appointments. Other processes to focus on are with your onboarding processes for new therapists and making that as seamless as possible. The other very integral part of private practice systems and processes are having a reliable EHR system or other system (like Google G-Suite) that works well for you in your practice. Most EHR's are able to track data and give the reports you need to see how your practice is growing. Getting the Help You Need Finally, one of the things that always is a great ROI (return on investment) for most people in private practice is in doing some consulting and/or coaching with someone.  Alison and Gordon talk about the benefits and huge return they have gotten by being part of and also leading mastermind groups. It is a way to be with like-minded people that all have common goals for their practices.  It's usually the boost people need to take their practices to the next level.
