Automation Built for ABA Practices, From Referral to Discharge.

Automated intake for an ABA clinic means a referral becomes a scheduled, insurance-verified, authorized client without a staffer chasing forms, faxes, and phone tag. AI360° Network builds the ABA workflow automation behind that: referral capture, verification tracking, parent communication sequences, appointment confirmation and reminders, and a pipeline that shows which family is stuck where.

AI360° Network builds the complete operational backend ABA clinics need to turn referrals into authorized clients without losing families in insurance limbo. Unified intake, automated insurance-verification tracking, parent communication sequences, BCBA calendar coordination, and a lead-gen dashboard that shows who's coming, who's stuck, and where the pipeline needs attention. Running live at All Aboard ABA.

The Pattern We Keep Seeing

ABA practices don't lose clients at the clinical level. They lose them in intake.

A pediatrician refers a family. The family calls. The call goes to voicemail. Three days pass. By the time someone follows up, the family has called two other clinics and started paperwork with whichever one answered first. How ABA intake automation cuts the waitlist.

A family makes it to intake. They fill out half the forms. They miss a signature. Nobody notices because the intake workflow lives in someone's email, not in a tracked pipeline. Two weeks later, the family ghosts, not because they didn't want the service, but because the process felt too complicated.

Medicaid cases get sent to the bottom of the list or declined outright. The practice tells itself this is a financial necessity. But those families came from the same pediatrician referral pipeline as the commercial-insurance families, and when they get rejected, they tell the referring pediatrician. The next batch of referrals doesn't come.

Every one of these problems is an infrastructure problem, not a clinical one. AI360°'s ABA system is built around fixing them.

What's Included

The Full ABA Operational Stack

Pre-built. Pre-integrated. Already running at All Aboard ABA. You customize, you don't build from scratch.

Unified Referral Intake

Every referral lands in one pipeline. Pediatrician referrals, web forms, direct parent calls. No silos. No "which inbox did that come through?" Insurance, demographics, and initial notes captured on the first touch.

Insurance Verification Tracking

Automated flags separate commercial insurance from Medicaid on day one. Commercial gets fast-tracked to verification. Medicaid is routed to a hold-and-nurture workflow so families aren't rejected cold. They're kept engaged while the practice pursues authorization pathways.

Intake Packet Automation

Parents receive the intake packet, consent forms, and document checklist automatically. Missing signatures trigger reminders. Completed packets move the family to the next stage automatically. No staff member is the bottleneck.

BCBA Calendar Coordination

Assessment scheduling, session planning, parent-BCBA meetings, and team coverage all flow through a shared calendar layer. Connected to the intake pipeline so families book into the right assessment type automatically.

Parent Communication Sequences

Pre-intake welcome, mid-assessment check-ins, authorization-in-progress updates, discharge preparation, and alumni nurture. Families always know what stage they're in and what happens next.

Lead-Gen Dashboard

Live dashboard showing all referral sources, pipeline stages, insurance mix, geographic distribution, and decision-maker contacts. The owner-operator can see clinic health at a glance without stitching together reports.

Proof In Production

Running live at All Aboard ABA, Sugar Land, Texas.

All Aboard ABA operates on AI360°'s full ABA operational stack: intake pipeline automation with Medicaid hold-and-nurture routing, 7 email campaign templates tuned for the parent journey, and a lead-generation dashboard with 328 tracked leads and decision-maker contacts.

Errol T. Dobbins, founder of AI360° Network, serves as Marketing Director for All Aboard ABA, which means the system isn't something that was sold from the outside and abandoned. It's actively maintained, tuned, and improved by the team that built it, inside the clinic it was built for.

The Medicaid hold-and-nurture workflow is a deliberate design choice, not a technical afterthought. Families in Medicaid pathways need a different cadence, not a rejection email. AI360° built the workflow that respects that difference.
Frequently Asked

Questions ABA Practices Ask Us

Does AI360° have a system running in a real ABA practice?

Yes. Intake pipeline automation, 7 email campaign templates, and a lead-generation dashboard with 328 leads are running live at All Aboard ABA in Sugar Land, Texas. The founder of AI360° serves as Marketing Director for that practice, so the system is maintained in-house.

Does the system replace our clinical practice management software?

No. Clinical systems like CentralReach, Rethink, or WebABA stay as-is. AI360° sits on top as the client-facing operational layer. Referrals, intake, insurance-verification tracking, parent communication, scheduling coordination, and marketing. The clinical side is untouched.

Can AI360° handle Medicaid case routing?

Yes. The intake pipeline auto-flags Medicaid cases and routes them to a hold-and-nurture workflow rather than rejecting them outright. This respects the fact that Medicaid pathways move on a different timeline without losing the family to a competitor or silence.

Do we need a full-time admin to run this?

The design goal is the opposite, the system is engineered so one owner-operator (or a small admin team) can run what normally requires a larger front-desk operation. Automations handle the predictable work. Humans handle the exceptions.

What does the weekly reporting look like?

A single pipeline report covering active leads, stage movement, insurance mix, new referrals, geographic spread, and decision-maker contact status. Delivered as a PDF so it's shareable with partners, referring physicians, and leadership without logging into a dashboard.

Free Checklist

Intake packets and phone tag are eating your admin week.

The free AI Automation Readiness Checklist shows where ABA and therapy practices leak hours: referrals waiting on paperwork, families left unanswered, follow-up that depends on memory. Work through it in one sitting and know your next three fixes.

Straight Answers

Questions owners actually ask.

Answered the way we answer them on the phone. No sales gloss.

01What does AI360° Network automate for ABA therapy practices?

AI360° Network automates the full ABA practice operation: referral intake from pediatricians and parents, insurance verification tracking, intake-form collection, BCBA calendar coordination, parent communication sequences, authorization tracking, discharge workflows, lead-generation dashboards, and marketing. Built to run a clinic with minimal administrative overhead.

02Does AI360° have a system running in a real ABA practice?

Yes. AI360° operates the intake pipeline automation, 7 email campaign templates, and a lead-generation dashboard with 328 leads and decision-maker contacts for All Aboard ABA in Sugar Land, Texas. Errol T. Dobbins, founder of AI360°, serves as Marketing Director for All Aboard ABA.

03How does AI360° handle ABA referral intake?

Referrals enter through a single unified intake point. Web form, phone, or direct pediatrician referral. The system captures insurance details, flags Medicaid cases for routing, sends parents an automated intake packet, and moves the lead through pipeline stages automatically as insurance verifies and the child's assessment is scheduled.

04Can AI360° handle insurance verification and Medicaid routing for ABA?

Yes. The intake pipeline includes automated insurance flagging. Contacts with Medicaid are routed to a hold-and-nurture workflow (rather than auto-declined), commercial insurance is fast-tracked to verification, and all cases are tracked in the CRM so nothing stalls silently.

05Does the AI360° ABA system integrate with practice management software?

AI360° Network is the client-facing and marketing operational layer. Clinical practice management software (CentralReach, Rethink, WebABA, etc.) stays as-is. AI360° handles the pre-clinical operational layer that feeds qualified families into the practice.

06What kind of reporting does the ABA system produce?

Weekly pipeline reports covering active leads, stage movement, insurance mix, decision makers, competitor intel, and map-based geographic distribution. Designed so a clinic owner can see operational health at a glance without pulling data from multiple tools.

07How fast does a waitlist inquiry get a response?

The same minute. A parent submits the intake form, the record is created, your team is alerted, and the family gets a confirmation. A parent who calls instead gets the voice agent, which answers from your approved content, offers the assessment call, and texts the booking link. Families who don't respond get a follow-up text with the link embedded. Nobody waits for whoever has a free moment between sessions.

08What happens when a parent cancels or no-shows?

They get their own follow-up path instead of falling off the board. A no-show triggers a reschedule text with the booking link, the card stays visible on your intake board in its own stage, and the weekly leadership report lists every family sitting there. Cancellations stop being something the BCBA discovers on arrival.
