Behavioral Health Software for Practices | SimpleChime

Behavioral Health Software That Keeps Patients Connected to Care

Clinicians are in session, and the phone keeps ringing. SimpleChime is behavioral health software for patient communication: online scheduling, reminders, two-way texting, call coverage, and recall in one place, so every patient reaches someone and your team stays focused on care.

  • Works alongside your EHR
  • Scheduling, texts, and calls in one place
  • For independent behavioral health practices
Why it fits

Built for Behavioral Healthcare Practices

Behavioral health practices run on recurring appointments, and clinicians spend most of the day in session. New patient inquiries, reschedule requests, and patients who quietly stop booking all land on a small admin team. SimpleChime is behavioral health practice software for patient communication, and it works alongside your EHR, from solo clinicians to multi-clinician group practices.

  • New patient inquiries
  • Recurring appointments
  • Clinicians in session
  • Patients who stop booking
What you get

What Your Practice Gets With SimpleChime

Six tools that cover patient communication, from the first inquiry to the next appointment.

Behavioral Health Scheduling Software Patients Can Use Anytime

Patients book from their phone at any hour instead of calling during the day. SimpleChime works as behavioral health online scheduling software that keeps recurring appointments full.

  • Self-scheduling with real-time availability
  • Rescheduling by text, with no phone tag

Appointment Reminders That Respect Patient Privacy

Discreet text and email reminders go out before each appointment, so fewer recurring slots go unused and staff skip the reminder calls.

  • Text and email reminders and confirmations before every appointment
  • Email patients directly from the appointment screen

A Behavioral Health Two-Way Texting Platform

Patients text your practice about scheduling and logistics, and admin staff reply from a shared inbox without pulling clinicians out of session.

  • A shared inbox your whole team can see
  • AI Labels that tag incoming messages with your team’s own labels, so staff know what needs attention first

Call Coverage While Clinicians Are in Session

Clinicians can’t answer mid-session, and a first-time caller may not call twice. The AI Voice Assistant answers routine calls, so every patient reaches someone.

  • Auto-answer menus and call routing to the right person, based on rules you set
  • Voicemails transcribed, so you can catch up between sessions

Patient Recall for Patients Who Stop Booking

Patients who pause care are easy to lose track of. Patient Recall reaches out by text and email, so returning is one reply away.

  • Automatic text and email outreach to patients due to rebook
  • Recall workflows you set up and adjust

Team Chat and Fax for Behavioral Healthcare Teams

Clinicians and admin staff coordinate in one platform instead of personal phones, and referrals arrive by fax in the same place.

  • Team Chat for secure 1:1 and group messaging, with file sharing, @mentions, and linked patient records
  • Fax send and receive for referrals and records

Questions

FAQs

What is behavioral health software?

Behavioral health software is the set of tools a practice uses to run care, including EHR, billing, and patient communication. SimpleChime focuses on communication: scheduling, reminders, two-way texting, calls, recall, and fax, alongside your EHR.

Does SimpleChime replace my EHR or practice management software?

No. SimpleChime works alongside your EHR and practice management software and handles patient communication.

What is the best behavioral health software for small practices?

It depends on what you need to solve. If your EHR already covers records and billing, look for communication tools a small team can run: online scheduling, reminders, texting, and call coverage. SimpleChime is built for independent practices, from solo clinicians to group practices.

Can patients schedule their own appointments online?

Yes. Patients self-schedule from real-time availability and can reschedule by text instead of calling.

Yes. Patients text your practice, and your team replies from a shared inbox. AI Labels tag incoming messages with your team’s own labels, so staff know what needs attention first.

What happens when a patient calls during a session?

The AI Voice Assistant answers routine calls and routes them based on rules you set. Voicemails are transcribed, so clinicians can read them between sessions.
