What is Deputy Care?

Insurance billing that actually works for your practice

Get paid your cash rate on time

Maintain your cash-pay clients with ease. You receive your full rate automatically, keeping your finances predictable.

Clients pay ~$60, not $200

We front the remaining portion so the client stays longer. Lower upfront cost means better retention.

We handle the paperwork

Benefits verification, claims submission, denial management — all included. You focus on therapy, we handle the rest.

Uncertain revenue while you wait weeks for insurance refunds

With Deputy Care

Client pays 50% less upfront, on average
Client retention increases by up to 3x
We own the revenue cycle from verification to payout
Money talk is off the table and out of the therapy room

Therapist stories

Don't take our word for it

"Deputy Care has made financial conversations with new clients so much easier. Instead of explaining out-of-network billing, I can simply let them know their benefits will be checked and costs clearly outlined before we begin to work together. The platform makes everything transparent, and clients often realize they have more coverage than anticipated."

Sara Sanford, LCSW

"My work together with Deputy Care has been nothing less than amazing. They have made it possible for me to have the kind of practice I want without the headache of dealing with insurance companies. They are great folks to work with as well."

Yerachmiel Donowitz, LPC

Pikesville, MD

"SimplePay has made it so I don't end up talking about money or fees with my clients at all. They know what they can expect. Deputy Care has provided me with loads of relief and convenience so I can focus on my practice."
