Point a workflow engine at claims & appeals, and let people review output instead of producing it. Aimed at mental health clinic admins, replacing the spreadsheet that currently holds it together.
In short: Mental health Appeal Drafter is a workflow engine aimed at mental health clinic admins, covering claims & appeals. It scores 70/100 on AltF Ideas, carried by feasibility (96) and held back by timing (32). Typical pricing is $1.4k–$27k per customer per year, with a first version reachable in a weekend for $2.5k–$8.0k.
Mental health teams lose denials abandoned because appealing costs more than the claim. The work sits between two systems that were never designed to talk. Most operators assume this is simply the cost of doing business.
A narrow workflow engine scoped to claims & appeals alone — no platform, no migration, no six-month rollout. Revenue is seat saas, which suits a buyer who wants the cost to track the value rather than the seat count.

Connectors exist for systems that were closed five years ago. Mental health is growing at roughly 22% a year, and this job has not been re-tooled since it was designed around paper.
| Who | The gap |
|---|---|
| An offshore back office | Cheaper per hour, but does not scale down to the tail |
| A spreadsheet | The real incumbent in most of the market, and it is free |
| An internal hire | Works until volume doubles, then breaks again |
The data you need lives on paper in a back office; digitisation is half the product.
