Provider FAQ
What is Mental Health Hub primarily building for the community?
One public path so people aren't stuck on a form that goes nowhere.
- Who — anyone can ask for support for themselves or someone else.
- Intake — structured details: demographics, insurance when it matters, availability, what they need.
- AI (optional) — helps narrow type of counseling or service; doesn't replace a clinician.
- Outcome — information is stored and connected to a specific provider or practice in the network.
Can people refer themselves or someone else?
Yes. Same flow for both.
- Someone booking for their own care.
- A family member, friend, or community member helping someone else get connected.
- Exact fields and consent copy keep evolving as we pilot with local partners.
What information does the referral process collect?
Practical, schedulable detail so practices can triage without endless email.
- Contact and demographic basics.
- Insurance or payer information when relevant.
- Preferred days or times.
- A clear description of concerns or goals.
- Early on, some routing may be manual; more can be assisted or automated as the workflow matures.
How does AI fit in—especially for “what kind of help” someone needs?
- Helps people articulate needs and sort options (e.g., type of service or level of care).
- Keeps answers organized for your team.
- Not for diagnosis; clinical decisions stay with licensed providers.
- Goal is less friction on the way in—not replacing judgment.
How does a referral get to the “right” provider?
Practices in the network are the pool we match against.
- Referral data is weighed against fit—scope of practice, availability, insurance or other constraints.
- The request should land with a team that can actually respond.
- Some steps may still be manual while we refine the workflow.
How does scheduling work?
Scheduling is live: calendar availability links intake to real slots.
- People can book into openings you publish—similar in spirit to Calendly, built for behavioral health workflows.
- Your availability in the hub drives what times show as bookable after someone moves through referral and matching.
- If something doesn't fit the standard path, your team can still follow up manually.
Who should join the network?
- Licensed mental health professionals and group practices.
- Teams that want community referrals and can follow up responsively.
- Partners who are open to iterating with us during the pilot.

How does pricing work during the pilot?

- Plan options are discussed when you start provider signup.
- Final terms are confirmed during onboarding as the network grows.
