GBGreat billing tool Not having to worry about submitting claims myself, as a small private practice owner is a beautiful thing. Headway takes away the stress of billing..and the platform overall is very simple.

GBSURPRISE CHARGED 4X SO FAR - BEWARE I am on EAP and have been surprise-charged $109-370 FOUR TIMES so far. How is a company whose sole job is booking and billing patients THIS BAD at their ONE JOB?? They're surprise billing mental health patients who are on assistance programs. This app has legitimately added more anxiety to my life which is absolutely absurd. THERAPISTS AND PATIENTS please look elsewhere.

GBAs a therapist, I'm very frustrated. I am a therapist who has used this platform and all was going well for 4 months until suddenly I received emails telling me 3 of my clients' insurance is actually NOT covered. They said that two more sessions would be covered partially in the email, but it is unclear on how that will happen and how much the patient will be charged. Now treatment is being disrupted for these clients and clinical care is on the line. Headways help service is terrible. There is no phone number to call, you have to submit online help tickets which sometimes don't take because their tech system glitches. Even if it does submit, you may be lucky to get one response per day which is unacceptable given time limited clinical issues that impact whether my clients can be seen this week or not. I can't get any reassurance that this issue won't continue, so why would I keep taking on clients that they can't actually verify insurance accurately for? The lack of ability to get help is a major problem. These tech companies don't fully realize the industry they are dealing with.

GBNeeds improvement Firstly, something needs to be fixed with the initial scheduling. I have chosen a date/time for multiple individuals (I schedule the appts for everyone in my family) and EVERYTIME the date / time chosen is no longer available after I finish all the steps. I get this notice by e-mail that I need to reschedule so I log back in, do it over. Sometimes thats the end of it but most of the time, the person msgs to say they want to reschedule. Headway is just the platform but they need policies in place to make this process better. Second, the filter when you're initially choosing is buggy. It will say there is no one in my town at all. Then I scroll in on the map and there will be 2. Then I scroll to a neighboring town for more options and 5 show up in my town. Also it seems like the same names are inexplicably showing up at the top. It's not by alphabet, distance, or most compatible. idk maybe the therapists pay to get to the top? On the user end it wastes time and is annoying.

GBEasy to Use and Getting Paid What I Deserve What makes the experience great is the ease of the website. Also the templates are easy to use. I like how Headway is expanding insurance offerings. Most of all the payment rate per session is excellent.
