Considering an EHR software for mental health counselors to manage your practice? Here’s everything you need to know before investing in one.
When it comes to finding the perfect EHR software for mental health counselors, there are many features to choose from. Here are some features that CounSol.com‘s standard practice management plan includes.
#1: Complete Practice Management
CounSol.com’s EHR software for mental health counselors allows you to easily manage your practice and focus on what is most important – your clients. Your entire counseling practice – client notes, records, appointments and billing, for both online and offline clients – can now be managed from one convenient location.
#2: Custom Client Site
With our EHR software for mental health counselors, you can easily create your custom client site to match your current website. Our tools allow you to choose fonts, colors, and add text and images. You simply post the HTML on your current site so your clients can click the link that directs them to the secure client portal. There, your clients can log in to view their secure emails from you, schedule appointments, view/pay bills, and write in their private journal. Through the client portal, clients can also access secure online video and chat sessions.
#3: Secure Messaging
This feature of our EHR software allows you to send and receive secure messages from your administrator account directly to your client’s secure site. Our secure message system helps prevent any outside individual from accessing personal information communicated between client and counselor.
#4: Appointment Scheduling & Reminders
Customize your calendar to show only the times and session lengths you want to offer, and choose to display by the hour, day, week, or month. This makes it easy to see what’s scheduled and what remains available. You can even set preferences and display options for clients to schedule online video sessions, online chat sessions, phone and office appointments. Both clients and counselor have access to booking appointments based on your terms and preferred availability.
You can also sync your CounSol.com calendar appointments to your smartphone, tablet, or desktop calendar so that your device’s calendar will automatically be updated (synced) with changes made in your CounSol.com calendar.
Our EHR software for mental health counselors also sends out automatic appointment reminders to your clients 24, 48, or 72 hours before their appointment time by email, text message, and/or phone call recording. Appointment reminders make your practice look professional and reduce the frequency of no-shows.
#5: Custom Form & Questionnaires
With CounSol.com as your EHR software for mental health counselors, you can create your own optional and required client forms, practice terms, and policy agreements to be filled out online. Forms can be customized by the types of questions and answer methods to assist you in gathering the most relevant and pertinent information about your clients. All forms and questionnaires are safely and securely stored in your administrator account for your records.
