Bringing someone onto your team is a significant step as a practice owner. It's also quite loaded. As Simone, owner of group practice The Cognitive Corner put it, "Money is a sensitive topic." Simone and Arisza Hillman, a licensed clinical social worker and practice coach, shed some light for those who are tackling this in their own practices. Here's what they shared.
If you've been meaning to put an AI scribe consent form together but keep pushing it down the list, this is your sign to knock it off in the next ten minutes. These four free templates come from real clinics already using Jane's AI Scribe so they've been tested in practice, not just drafted in theory. Pick the one that fits how your practice runs, and just make a copy or download it from...
If you’re struggling to use AI for soap notes, emails, and other clinic tasks, it’s probably not the AI tool that’s the problem. It’s the prompt. A clear, structured prompt is the difference between output you have to completely rewrite and output you only need to tweak, And once you know the formula for writing ai prompts, it works on almost anything: chart notes, patient emails, website cop...
Using an AI scribe in your treatment room sounds good in theory. Less time on notes, more time with patients. What's less clear is how it actually fits your treatment room. Do you need special equipment? Does a device have to sit on the desk between you? Will you need to change your setup? These are the real, practical questions that come up when choosing the best AI scribe tool to fit in t...
Are you exploring private practice marketing strategies as you get your business off the ground? Opening a practice is full of decisions, and how to actually market your new business is one of them. We spoke with therapist Alicia Murray and osteopath Melanie Emlyn on the topic, and they shared some advice on how to think about marketing based on where you are in your business, and what tends t...
Rural clinic marketing isn't about outranking the clinic three blocks away. Sometimes, there is no clinic three blocks away. Dr. Manju Asdhir, a chiropractor and clinic owner who built and scaled a practice in small-town Ontario before exiting at year nine, makes the case plainly: there’s a huge marketing opportunity for rural clinics. What’s important is understanding what makes their market...
A farmers market is about the last place you expect to see a clinic set up. But according to Dr. Manju Asdhir, a chiropractor and clinic marketing strategist who works with clinics across North America, this is exactly why it works. Running a clinic booth at a local community event is one of the most underused patient acquisition strategies for clinic owners. No competition. A crowd that's a...
If patients aren't coming back after that first visit, more marketing won't help. Most patient retention strategies start in the wrong place, focused on getting people through the door rather than on what happens once they're there. The drop-off almost always traces back to something that happened (or didn't happen) in that first appointment. Joseph Ibe figured this out early and was able to...
If you’ve been looking into AI scribes for therapists, you might be picturing live session recordings. Totally fair, that’s usually what comes to mind first. But it’s not the only option. There’s another way to use an AI scribe that keeps things a bit more in your control, and it only involves recording yourself. In practice, there are two main ways to approach this. Both get you to a finishe...
Starting a private practice comes with a lot of firsts. Getting your licenses, registration, and insurance in place before opening day isn't just a formality. The order you do it in matters, and some of the most important steps are also the ones many new practitioners miss. We talked to Justin Rabinowitz, a chiropractor and business coach, and he believes with the right guidance, it’s a lot ...
Starting a private practice comes with a lot of firsts. Roxanne Francis, a business coach, psychotherapist, and CEO of Francis Psychotherapy, has seen firsthand what happens when practitioners are inspired and prepared, and what happens when one of those pieces is missing. Getting your licenses, registration, and insurance in place before opening day isn't just a formality. This post walks th...

Used by 2,500+ chiropractors on Jane, this chiropractic SOAP note template walks through the full SOAP structure with all the checkboxes and common options already added in. Whether you call them chiropractic SOA...
This therapy intake form template covers everything new clients need to read, sign, and understand before their first session. Used by 5,000+ therapists and counselors on Jane , it works as a counseling intake form, a therapy consent form, and a general mental health intake form. Download it or make a copy and feel free to adapt it to fit how you practice.
How to pay yourself as a private practice owner and actually land on a number that works is one of those decisions most owners put off for far too long. And when they finally do pay themselves, it is usually whatever is left over at the end of the month. Certified Financial Counselor and practicing physical therapist Robin Valadares has worked through this with practitioners time and time aga...
For most private practices, handling medical billing in-house is a reasonable place to start. Over time, though, the follow-up that comes with insurance billing can quietly outpace what your team has the bandwidth for. That's the moment a medical billing service tends to make the most sense. If you ask Sara Hansen, a medical billing specialist and COO at Bushido Billing, there are a few clear...
98 to 99% of insurance billing mistakes are avoidable if you have the right systems set in place, according to Sara Hansen, COO of Bushido Billing. If you're billing insurance in private practice, that’s a powerful number. Most insurance claim denials don’t begin with complicated coding errors or payer disputes. They usually start with small, fixable gaps in your clinic's intake and verificat...
Yes, a HIPAA-compliant AI scribe exists, and if you're in Canada, the same goes for PIPEDA. But whether the one you're looking at actually meets those standards is worth a closer look before you hit record. If you're a therapist thinking about AI-generated therapy notes, that pause you feel makes sense. In a recent Jane survey, 23% of behavioral health practitioners said they feel cautious ab...
In health and wellness clinics and practices across North America, something subtle but profound is happening. Practitioners are talking about AI as a new technology, but even more, they’re talking about how it changes the emotional texture of their work. Less cognitive strain. More presence with patients. A sense that the day is once again manageable. We took an opportunity to speak with cli...

Clinic teams, unlike families or friends, are assembled deliberately: through interviews, references, and yes, a little bit of gut instinct. You choose these people with care, not only to make sure they’re skilled at what they do, but because you’re going to spend an extraordinary amount of your life with them. Work is better when it’s shared with people you genuinely like. Which is why, when...

Infusing delight into your practice is more than just lifting your clients’ spirits. It’s a strategic business decision and one of the simplest ways to improve your overall client experience. Why? Because delighted clients don’t just come back, they tell other people they should come, too. The more delightful the patient experience, the louder they shout it from the rooftops! And you begin bui...
Year-end isn’t just about getting ready for taxes, it’s about getting clear on the story your numbers tell. It’s your chance to pause and run through your year-end financial checklist: take stock of what worked, what didn’t, and start the next year with more confidence. Think of it as your clinic’s annual financial checkup. And it doesn’t have to be scary. It’s simply a moment to realign ...

Building a community sounds big, doesn’t it? Like something that takes a full team, a big plan, and way more time than you actually have. But the truth is, real community tends to start small, and when you create simple, genuine moments of connection, it naturally grows into something lasting. That’s something Destin Jones (Jane’s community and events leader) has done beautifully. What sta...
For Calgary-based occupational therapist, educator, and mentor Carlyn Neek, working with AI can be summarized in two words, all caps: “MIND BLOWING!”. With the growing popularity of the technology, Carlyn, like many other practitioners, became curious about how it could help her in her practice. One of her first experiments was marketing. Carlyn struggled to describe her strengths as a pra...

It’s easy to look around and feel like everyone else has it figured out. Imagining your fellow practitioners with full caseloads, confident teams, and steady growth. Meanwhile, you’re still piecing things together on the fly or not sure how to get your business back on track. But the truth is, most clinic owners are figuring it out as they go, too. No one’s doing it perfectly, and feeling a l...

When we talk about marketing for small health and wellness businesses, the advice often sounds like there’s a secret recipe hiding somewhere: “Run Facebook ads”, “Invest in SEO,” and “Post on Instagram three times a week.” It’s easy to think of marketing your clinic as one thing or one set of things you should be doing as a clinic owner. But after having many conversations with clinic owners...

It’s been said that owning a business is one of the greatest courses in personal growth. Isn’t that the truth?! Not only are there logistics to growing your practice and one day scaling it — who to hire, what systems to add, what EMR or clinic software to use (and more). There’s also the emotional work of being in business. How do you react when things aren’t easy? When a client ghosts you? ...

Let’s face it: insurance vs cash billing isn’t the most fun topic. No matter where you’re located, it involves some admin. But for providers in the US, billing can also come with complex systems to understand, rules to abide by, and a laundry list of extra steps — and in the end, payment isn’t always guaranteed. Please don’t click away yet! :) If “getting paid” is the destination, “billing”...

When patients think of your clinic, they remember more than just a name. What stays with them is how it felt to be in your care, and that feeling is the core of your brand. A clinic’s brand isn’t created in one grand moment. It’s shaped over time, through all the small moments. Every touch point matters, from the first click on your website to the way your front desk welcomes them. The...
The right photography tips can help anyone take polished clinic photos that feel professional, no studio required. For small clinics and therapy practices, images do more than brighten a website, they’re often a patient’s very first impression.

Imagine you get an email from your bank warning you of suspicious activity. They’re asking you to log in and verify some recent purchases. No problem. You can trust your bank. Right?

But with every new technology comes the natural next step: questions. Will this actually help? Is it really ...

With years of experience keeping clinics calm, collected, and run...
When you’re building a practice — especially in the early days — your energy goes everywhere. You’re naming your business, finding a space, setting up software, and serving your first clients.

And when done right, it can actually feel empowering. ...
Feeling unsure about actually charging a no-show or late cancellation fee? Here’s the harsh truth. Every no-show costs more than just time: just three no-shows or late cancellations per week can add up to $20,000 a year in lost income. Not to mention, not enforcing your policies can lower your job satisfaction and increase feelings of resentment. Honouring your policies helps protect your ...

How do you find the perfect candidate so that you ...

Have you had an over-capacity waitlist? Were you worried that your clients would not be able to book in a reasonable amount of time? It’s a common concern for so many practitioners.

Running a solo practice has its perks: you’re in control, set your own hours, and build strong relationships with your patients. But at some point, you might start wondering 'what’s next?'

To Matt, Founder and Clinical Director, culture and onboarding are interwoven. A big...
