The Problem

Evaluation no-shows kill the schedule

SLP evaluations are 60-90 minute slots. A no-show is 60-90 minutes of lost billable time. Without robust reminders and reschedule flow, evaluation no-show rates climb to 15-25%.

Direct lost evaluation revenue, lower SLP utilization

Pre-evaluation paperwork doesnt come back

Many evaluations require parent/client to complete intake forms, case history, and consent forms before the appointment. Manual follow-up fails — paperwork shows up late or never.

Lower evaluation quality, longer visits, parent frustration

Insurance verification happens too late

When insurance isnt verified before the evaluation, parents arrive surprised by costs or denied coverage — leading to disputes and bad reviews.

Lost trust, billing denials, bad Google reviews

Bilingual evaluation booking is manual

Spanish, Mandarin, Vietnamese, Tagalog, Korean-speaking parents need evaluation booking in their dominant language — and English-only systems lose them.

Equity gap, lost diverse-community referrals
