Open the case while the caller is still on the line
Coordinator intake captures location, priority, and context so the assigned CAT team does not inherit a spreadsheet after the transfer.
California counties
From 988 and CalAIM to CAT in the field — on one crisis thread
California defined mobile crisis and 988. Respondr keeps the episode together after the transfer — intake, CAT dispatch, field status, and handoff — without replacing your EHR.
Why this matters in California
Policy set the continuum. Ops keeps the episode intact.
California did not leave mobile crisis to chance. DHCS Mobile Crisis Services define a Medi-Cal benefit for 24/7 community response — stabilize people where they are, and reduce unnecessary ED and law-enforcement involvement.
On the front door, DHCS 988 and CalHHS 988 California describe someone to call and a path toward local response. M-TAC trains counties and teams to implement the benefit.
The DHCS Mobile Crisis FAQ gets operational: how a 988 contact can transfer to a county crisis line, and when the mobile-response clock starts. That is assign SLA, field arrival, and follow-up — not abstract policy.
The continuum is clear on paper. The gap most teams still feel is the episode itself — still split across a crisis line, a radio, a spreadsheet, and a phone after the handoff.
Where Respondr fits — without replacing your EHR
Respondr is crisis operations software for the intake-to-CAT thread. Billing, prescribing, and the clinical chart stay in the systems you already trust. We sit beside CalAIM mobile crisis and 988 — not in place of DHCS, M-TAC, or your EHR.
Dispatch Primary CAT — with Relief or PERT when needed
Live board, per-member status, and field-first My Cases on phone and tablet: map, ETA after accept, and status through clear.
Keep follow-up and warm handoff on the same episode
72-hour follow-ups and program handoff stay on the case thread — so what CalAIM expects after stabilization does not fall off the radio.

Fit your protocol, not ours
Crisis teams do not share one intake form. Share how your line, dispatch, and follow-up actually work. We adjust the live demo in days — AI-assisted build is why that is fast, not what you are buying — then you walk the same thread on your rules.
Show us your rules
Intake fields, CAT team vs solo, assign SLA, 72-hour follow-up, and what “cleared” means on your team.
We reshape the demo in days
Workflow and seeds typically change in days — fields, SLAs, CAT statuses, resource list. HIPAA hosting, BAA, SSO, and EHR or 988-vendor integration are not a week; we say that up front.
Walk your version
Same personas — Coordinator, CAT, and Supervisor — on a board that follows your protocol, not a generic county template.
Mga karaniwang tanong
Hindi. Ang Respondr ay crisis operations platform na nakatuon sa intake, dispatch, field assessment, at program handoff. Dinadagdagan nito ang umiiral ninyong clinical systems sa halip na palitan ang mga ito.
City mobile crisis units, county behavioral health (kasama ang Crisis Now / 988 call centers), at state o regional programs na kailangan ng iisang intake-to-dispatch thread sa iba't ibang jurisdiction. Parehong workflow ang umuusad mula sa municipal CAT team hanggang multi-county board.
Oo. Ang CAT My Cases ay ginawa para sa telepono at tablet: single-column phone home, two-column tablet grid, incident map sa bawat assignment, at ETA sa tabi ng address pagkatapos tumanggap ng dispatch ang miyembro ng team.
May team chat thread ang bawat case. Naglilista ang header bell ng role-scoped work — P0/P1 na naghihintay ng dispatch, overdue follow-ups, pending warm handoffs, at PTO na suriin — at binubuksan ang exact screen.
Nag-a-assign ang mga dispatcher ng naka-schedule na Primary CAT teams mula sa board o intake. Sinasaklaw ng Relief at PERT ang backup at escalation; ipinapakita ng per-member status kung sino ang dumating, nagsimula ng assessment, o cleared.
Ipinapakita ng supervisor dashboard ang Crisis now (open, unassigned, P0/P1), stale cases (24h+), team utilization, at PTO. Pinapanatili ng notifications at CAT team scheduler ang staffing at caseload sa iisang loop.
Humiling ng demo sa site na ito. Ang susunod na hakbang ay live walkthrough kasama ang team namin — intake, CAT dispatch, at field phone sa iisang thread. Maaari mong i-book ang oras mula sa confirmation page. Nag-e-email kami ng time-limited access code pagkatapos suriin ang kahilingan; hindi awtomatikong gumagawa ng code ang site.
Ang workflow at demo seeds — intake fields, SLAs, CAT statuses, follow-up rules, resource lists — karaniwang nababago sa loob ng ilang araw o isang-dalawang linggo. Ang HIPAA production hosting, BAA, SSO/IdP, at EHR o 988-vendor integration ay hindi isang linggo; sumusunod ang mga iyon sa later production conversation. Gumagamit lang ang public demo ng local browser storage.
Dinisenyo ang production platform para sa HIPAA-aligned hosting na may encryption, RBAC, at audit logs. Gumagamit lang ang demo na ito ng local browser storage at binubuksan gamit ang time-limited access code.
