For Psychiatric Nurse Practitioners

PMHNP practice software, with the back office handled.

Practice software built for psychiatric mental health nurse practitioners running their own practice. AI EHR, ambient scribing, scheduling, insurance billing, and end-to-end credentialing — all in one HIPAA-compliant workflow with human specialists who actually know the PMHNP path.

Built around the PMHNP scope of practice

PMHNP private practice has a different operational shape than physician practice: scope-of-practice rules vary by state, some states require collaborative-physician agreements, and credentialing under your NP license needs different paperwork than a physician’s. We handle those differences explicitly instead of treating you as a "psychiatrist with an NP credential."

A specialist on our team walks you through your state’s requirements before you go live — whether you’re in a full-practice-authority state or one that requires collaboration.

What’s included

  • Practice formation. Entity formation (PLLC where applicable), NPI Type 2, and any required PMHNP-specific filings.
  • Insurance credentialing. CAQH setup, payer applications under your NP license, follow-up, and contract review. Most PMHNP credentialing runs 90–150 days depending on the panel.
  • Collaborative-physician agreements. Where state law requires one, we help you stand it up rather than leaving you to find a collaborator yourself.
  • AI EHR & ambient scribing. Same psychiatry-tuned EHR our physician users get: structured psychiatric notes, MSE, risk assessment, med-management workflows. Details on the AI EHR.
  • EPCS e-prescribing. Controlled-substance e-prescribing under your NP DEA, in the same chart you’re working in.
  • Insurance billing & RCM. Eligibility, claims, denials, ERAs — one workflow, not a separate billing vendor to chase.
  • AI receptionist. Inbound calls, intake, scheduling, and reschedules — so you don’t have to hire a front desk on day one.

PMHNPs keep 100% of the practice

NoBackOffice does not own your practice, does not employ you (no W2 or 1099 with us), and does not take an equity stake in your PLLC. You retain ownership of your patients, your contracts, and your revenue. This is fundamentally different from network platforms like Headway, Alma, or Grow Therapy, where you operate inside their network rather than running a fully owner-controlled practice.

Part-time PMHNP practice

Many PMHNPs start their private practice while still working a W2 role at a hospital, group, or telehealth platform. NoBackOffice supports that. Set patient volume to fit your schedule, let the AI receptionist and billing run unattended, and grow when you’re ready to go full-time.
