Benefits

See Employee Manual Typical Benefits Offered to Full Time Clarity Crew

Eligibility: 

• All employees start out as part-time. Part-time employees can achieve full-time status by averaging 23 clients per week over a 4 week period. 

  • Once full time status is achieved, the employee will select benefits in Gusto (health, dental, vision) and outside of Gusto (CEU subscription and full-time supervision stipend).

• Once full-time status is achieved, full-time clinicians must maintain a minimum of 23 billable hours per week (on average) over the previous three months (quarter) to remain eligible for receiving benefits. 

  • Our calculation assumes 15 minutes of documentation for each client session (23) = (5.75 hrs per week) to total 28.75hr each week.

• Most people have a schedule with 28-30 appointments available per week to hit their target.

• Our calculations are the total number of appointments that quarter divided by 12 total weeks. Not 12.2 or 12.5; the actual number of weeks that are typically in a quarter. 

  •  This calculation does not take into account 4  weeks of the year.   You'd have to take more than 4 weeks off in the year for time off to impact your calculations. 

• 90791, 90837s, and even 45 minute sessions (90834s) are counted as 1 client hour. 90832 is counted as .5.

• If you are under one quarter you have until the next quarter to meet target. 

Common Pitfalls:

• Blocked Appointments: Be mindful of blocked appointments. It's the same as taking 1 hour of PTO and can unintentionally add up. 

• Poor Retention: It will be difficult to hit targets when not retaining new clients. 

• Back to Back Time Off:  I'm an advocate of time off but the reality still exists that back to back time off can negatively impact retention. 

• Not Making Up Time Off: If you have already taken significant time off you may need to make up time taken off  

• Higher Than Average Cancellation Rate: Not charging clients for cancalations can lead to this.
