Fixed-Scope Project · You Own It

Leave Your Group and Launch Your Own Private Practice

Going out on your own from an employer, a group, or a platform? We stand up the whole business side — your entity, NPI, credentialing, payer portals, electronic payments, and EHR — on a mapped timeline, so you open with claims flowing and nothing left half-built. Built for PMHNPs, psychiatrists, and therapists ready to own their practice.

What We Actually Do

The Whole Business Side, Stood Up Around You

You handle the clinical side and the big decisions. We handle the operational build — every piece, in your own accounts, so you own all of it on day one.

Entity & Identifiers

Coordinate your Type 1 and Type 2 NPIs in NPPES and align CAQH ProView to your new practice. (You keep your CPA/attorney for the entity formation itself; we build around it.)

Credentialing Move

Enroll or move you onto your commercial payers under your own tax ID, with the follow-up discipline that actually gets you billable — not stuck in a queue.

Systems & Payments

Set up your EHR and clearinghouse, your Availity and Office Ally portals, and EFT/ERA/EDI for each payer — tested with live claims before you open.

A Real Timeline, Not a Someday

Your Launch, Mapped Out

This is the same sequence we use on real launches. You always know what’s happening and what’s next — tracked live in your own Command Suite workspace, included for the engagement.

  1. Days 1–3 — Foundation. Your Command Suite workspace goes live with your provider roster, payer priority list, and a document checklist. We map exactly what you have and what’s missing.
  2. Day 5 — Trackers built. A CAQH readiness tracker and a provider-by-payer credentialing tracker so status is never a mystery.
  3. Day 10 — Gap audit. We surface every blocker — a missing attestation, an NPI taxonomy mismatch, a payer that needs something extra — before it costs you time.
  4. Day 15 — Billing readiness. Your appointment-to-claim workflow, clean-claim checklist, payer IDs, EDI/ERA/EFT, and clearinghouse rejection routing, all mapped.
  5. Day 20 — Benefits & patient responsibility. A repeatable eligibility and patient-cost workflow, including how weekends and same-day adds get handled.
  6. Day 25 — Launch plan. Which payers are ready, which aren’t yet, and exactly how your first claims go out.
  7. Day 30 — Go-live. First claims flowing, a leadership dashboard, and a clean handoff so you run it yourself.

Pricing, Published on Purpose

One Bundle for the Launch. Optional Help After.

Independent Launch Bundle

from $3,000 scoped to you

New five-payer commercial credentialing, entity coordination, payer portals, and EFT/ERA/EDI — bundled and priced up front. Anchored on our $3,000 five-payer credentialing (additional payers $350–$500 each), with entity and systems setup scoped to you and confirmed before kickoff.

Add First-Year RCM (Optional)

$1,500/mo → then 6–8%

Want us to run the billing too while you ramp? A flat $1,500/month for your first three months, then a simple percentage once you’re at volume. Fully optional — the launch bundle stands alone.

Split It If You Want — No Interest, Ever

Pay the launch bundle in full before kickoff, or break it into equal monthly payments at no extra cost. Same total either way.

Pay Faster

Fewer, larger payments

Done in a couple of months.

Spread It Out

Smaller, monthly

Up to four smaller payments. No interest.

Your exact scope, price, and payment schedule are confirmed in a signed Order Form before any work begins.

Timeline

How Long to Open

Your systems and workspace are ready in about 30 days. The long pole is payer credentialing — commercial payers run 60–120 days each on their own clocks. We can often sequence your launch so you open with the payers that clear first while the rest catch up.

What’s Not Included

Where the Line Is

  • Legal entity formation, S-corp election, and tax strategy (your CPA/attorney; we coordinate around it)
  • Lease, real estate, or physical build-out
  • Malpractice or licensure (we can point you the right way)
  • Ongoing billing — unless you add First-Year RCM above

Works With Your Stack

We Build Around the Systems You Choose

Picking your first EHR, or bringing one you like? Either way, we work with any system or tech stack, build everything custom around it, and you own it when it’s done.

Common Questions

Going Independent FAQ

I’m leaving a group practice / employer. Can you handle the switch?

Yes — that’s exactly what this is for. We stand up your own entity, NPI, credentialing, portals, and systems so you open under your own practice. If you’re currently on a platform like Headway, see Own Your Practice Instead of Headway.

Do I need to have my LLC or S-corp formed first?

It helps, but you don’t have to have everything finished. We start with a stocktake and build around wherever you are. Your CPA or attorney forms the entity and handles tax elections; we handle the NPI, CAQH, credentialing, payers, and systems around it.

How much is it, and can I split payments?

The launch bundle starts around $3,000, scoped to your exact situation and quoted up front. You can pay in full or split it into equal monthly payments — we never charge interest. Adding First-Year RCM is optional at $1,500/month for three months, then a percentage.

What if I don’t have an EHR yet?

We’ll help you choose one that fits how you practice and your budget, then set it up and connect it to your clearinghouse. We’re EHR-agnostic — you’re not locked into anyone’s platform, and you own it.
