AI Intake for Sensory Integration

The AI intake coordinator built for sensory integration OT clinics

Frontdesk runs the full intake workflow for sensory integration occupational therapy clinics — capturing sensory profile across seven domains, distinguishing sensory processing disorder from autism / ADHD / anxiety comorbidities, verifying insurance, and scheduling Ayres Sensory Integration (ASI) certified evaluations into Fusion Web Clinic, ClinicSource, PtEverywhere, WebPT, NetHealth (Optima), Jane App, SimplePractice, TherapyNotes, TheraNest, and CentralReach.

The Problem

Sensory profile capture needs depth, not breadth

A meaningful sensory-integration intake captures sensory profile across seven domains with seeking / avoiding and hypo / hyper-responsive patterns — most front-desk workflows skip this entirely.

Incomplete clinical picture, slower ASI planning

SPD vs autism / ADHD / anxiety differentiation is critical

Sensory Processing Disorder commonly co-occurs with autism, ADHD, anxiety, and other diagnoses. Intake must capture comorbidity context to inform evaluation planning.

Mis-scoped evaluations, lost clinical time

ASI-certified clinicians are scarce

Ayres Sensory Integration (ASI) certification is rare — clinics with ASI-certified OTR/Ls often have long waitlists. Manual matching is inefficient.

Long waitlists, lost clients to other clinics

Insurance for sensory-integration OT is mixed

Some plans cover sensory-integration OT under specific CPT codes; others require pre-auth or limit visits. Verification mistakes lead to denials.

Billing denials, surprise bills, churn
