About Alma Provider Platform

Alma is an all-in-one platform for independent mental health providers that combines insurance credentialing, in-network billing, AI-powered session notes (Note Assist), EHR, scheduling, and a therapist directory—all for $125/month ($95/month billed annually). Alma helps therapists get credentialed with major insurers like Aetna, Cigna, UnitedHealthcare, Oscar, and Oxford, often negotiating $10-30 higher per-session reimbursement rates than solo credentialing. The platform handles all insurance billing and pays therapists weekly (vs. Headway's bi-weekly). In January 2026, Spring Health acquired Alma, creating one of the largest mental health platforms in the US. Alma also provides robust peer consultation groups, continuing education, and access to clinical advisors including Esther Perel, Lori Gottlieb, and Guy Winch. The $500 provider referral bonus incentivizes network growth.
