Caesar Health for
Behavioral Health
AI agents built for therapists, psychiatrists, and counselors — handling the calls, notes, and claims so you can focus on the therapeutic relationship.
Why Behavioral Health Practices Are Struggling
Therapy sessions are 45-60 minutes of nuanced conversation. Writing detailed progress notes after a full day of back-to-back sessions leads to 2-3 hours of after-hours documentation.
Behavioral health practices see no-show rates of 20-30%, compared to 5-10% in primary care. Every empty slot is lost revenue that cannot be recovered.
Patients in crisis call outside business hours. Practices that miss these calls risk patient safety and liability. Staff spend hours daily managing phone traffic instead of supporting patients.
Split billing for individual vs. group sessions, telehealth modifiers, and prior authorization requirements for ongoing therapy create constant reimbursement delays and denials.
Never Miss a Patient Call Again
Echo — your 24/7 AI phone agent
Echo handles sensitive patient calls with empathetic, clinically appropriate language designed for behavioral health practices.
- After-hours triage screens for crisis situations and escalates to on-call providers when clinically necessary
- Books therapy appointments matched to the right provider, modality, and session type
- Manages waitlist inquiries and cancellation backfills automatically
- Handles sensitive conversations with clinically appropriate language and empathy
Example Scenario
Echo in action
“A patient calls at 9 PM feeling overwhelmed after a family conflict. Echo asks screening questions, determines this is not an immediate safety risk, provides the practice’s crisis resources, and books a next-day urgent appointment with the patient’s assigned therapist. The on-call provider receives a summary notification.”
Example Scenario
Apollo in action
“During a 50-minute CBT session for anxiety, Apollo captures presenting concerns, cognitive distortions identified, behavioral experiments discussed, homework assigned, and treatment plan updates in a structured progress note.”
