Episode 234 | Transforming Out-of-Network Therapy Reimbursements with Mentaya

The Group Practice Exchange

Calculating insurance benefits and submitting insurance claims can often be a major pain point for both clients and group practice owners. But not anymore! I am so excited to share a new tool that I’ve been using to take this burden off our shoulders: Mentaya. In this episode, I had the pleasure of chatting with Christine Li, the founder and CEO of Mentaya. We delved into how Mentaya’s features, like the instant benefits calculator and automated claim submission, are revolutionizing the reimbursement process, making it easier for therapists to manage private pay clients and for clients to get reimbursed. If you’re looking to streamline the claim submission process for your practice, you won’t want to miss this episode. Here's a snapshot of what we covered in our conversation:

• Christine shared her transition from Google to founding Mentaya, driven by a desire to make mental health care more accessible and manageable.
• How Mentaya’s platform is designed to alleviate the administrative burden on therapists and clients dealing with out-of-network benefits.
• Highlighting how Mentaya's instant benefits calculator and automated claim submission service streamlines the reimbursement process.
• I share my own experience with Mentaya in my practice, noting how it has positively impacted my ability to attract and retain private pay clients.

Christine's work with Mentaya is a testament to the power of innovation in making therapy more accessible and less daunting for everyone involved.
