Wisconsin Mental Health Alliance, Inc.
Do You Want Your Own Practice?
We can help you get there for $50 in monthly dues, NO SPLITS for the fully-licensed. We set you up with a very cost-effective credentialing company and billing company. You receive a discounted rate. We guide you on how to utilize two national companies for most insurance, and access to companies they don't have, plus Medicare and the Medicaid MCOs.
We set you up with ALMA and Headway, which provide access to commercial UHC, Aetna, Cigna and Anthem. Headway is also working on Medicare options. You do not share any of your proceeds from Headway and ALMA. You do not share a percentage of what you make through our other companies.
Dues only!
​
The association provides you access to most insurance carriers that work in Wisconsin. The more our organization grows, the more we are able to add other services and spend money on social media marketing for the counselors. There is power in numbers.
​
Each fully-licensed counselor and prescriber may be credentialed under the association. We will help you with credentialing with our carriers. We have counselors who can supervise counselors in training who have the IT license. Practicum students are welcome but are not allowed to see patients without a licensed person present. That is outside of state law.
​
The more people join us, the more cost-efficient we become. The more income and control you will enjoy.
​
We make this effort as counselor-friendly as we can. We encourage you, with an invite, to join ALMA and Headway, giving you higher rates of reimbursement than our contracts allow for commercial UHC, Anthem, Cigna and Aetna. We will show you how to utilize those services. You can always use our contracts but you will make more with the two services. We have our own credentialing with those companies for ITs who cannot use ALMA or Headway, until fully-licensed.
We teach and coach. We also have TherapyMate for all of our counselors and prescribers, with clearinghouse integration and oversight by our billing company.
​
For other commercial insurance and Medicaid and, soon, Medicare, we provide access to the vast majority of Wisconsin MCOs that manage Medicaid funds, like Chorus, Dean, Quartz, UHC, Anthem, MHS, I-Care, Network Health and others. We also have Common Ground and work with people who have other insurance via the ACA.
​
We do not touch your co-pays. We do not take a percentage. Just pay the monthly $125 dues to the association, and, if you want to use ALMA, that's $125/month to them for their higher reimbursement rates, but that's up to you. We don't dictate. Some counselors use Headway to not pay the extra $125 for company access, but the reimbursement is higher with ALMA.
​
Payments are made from Headway every other week and ALMA pays every week. For other billing, the alliance pays as soon as the EOB and payment arrive and can do so via Paypal, Cashapp or a check.
​
There are too many clinics that are money machines for the owners, at the expense of the counselor. Not all are bad. Some treat people very well. Some don't. This is another option, with freedom to practice as you wish, with a strong team of experienced people to help you with questions and direction. We will help counselors working for the good clinics, if the ownership wants counselors to have Medicaid and Medicare access. If you want an office, we suggest looking at the Regus system of renting as you need. They have offices throughout the major metro areas of the state.
​
As for marketing, Dr. Probst spent 20 years in the media business and is very adept at social media marketing. We do strongly suggest a Psychology Today profile and, once licensed, you become licensed in additional states to work through ALMA and Headway. This way, you will maintain a strong case load and most of your income will likely come from Headway and ALMA but you don't have to turn other people away. We have the other contracts.
​
Come along with us and be free, making much more per session or med evaluation than you can elsewhere!
