# Mental Health Treatment Planning

Valant is a behavioral health EHR with collaborative treatment planning designed to improve patient care and keep documentation compliant. Clinicians build treatment plans faster using templates, evidence-based content, progress tracking, and flexible workflows. These help them move from intake information and diagnoses to clear, individualized plans.

**Who it's for:** Behavioral health practices delivering outpatient, telehealth, and intensive outpatient or partial hospitalization (IOP/PHP) care.

## Features

- **Evidence-based Content Libraries:** A built-in library of evidence-based treatment plan content. 
- **32 Integrated Wiley PracticePlanners:** Treatment planning content from industry experts, supporting niche specializations and patient populations in outpatient and IOP/PHP.
- **Treatment Plan Templates:** Multiple configurable templates for outpatient and IOP/PHP that fit the needs of different payers and treatment modalities.
- **Automated Review Cycles & Reminders:** Customizable review cycles and automated reminders that keep plan management efficient, compliant, and audit-ready.
- **Progress Updates from Clinical Notes:** Update a patient's treatment plan progress directly from session notes.
- **Supervisor Collaboration:** Supervisors can review, edit, and give feedback on supervisees' treatment plans.
- **Custom Practice and Provider Library:** Practices can create their own library of treatment plan content, and clinicians can build their own specialized libraries.

## Managing plans across a growing roster

A practice-wide overview of all treatment plans lets practices:

- Monitor review cycles
- Track signing status
- See which patients need a plan
- Reassign plan ownership

Practices can standardize treatment planning while clinicians still tailor each plan to the patient, diagnosis, and treatment approach.

## Building plans faster

Configurable templates, built-in content libraries, and evidence-based planning tools mean clinicians spend less time starting from scratch. Plans are personalized, actionable, and easier to maintain over time, whether clinicians start from intake information, diagnoses, or ongoing clinical notes.

## Treatment planning for telehealth

Structured templates, progress updates tied to clinical notes, and adaptable content let clinicians build and update plans without disrupting virtual sessions. The goal is structure clinicians can use flexibly, not scripts, so virtual visits still feel personal, collaborative, and clinically grounded.

## Wiley PracticePlanners

Valant's treatment plans include Wiley's library of **32 specialized PracticePlanners**, which provide thousands of evidence-based problems, goals, objectives, and interventions. The content supports niche and neurodiverse patient populations and specialized treatment approaches. Clinicians use Wiley's content as a starting point, then tailor goals, objectives, and interventions to each patient's diagnosis, modality, and clinical needs.

## Treatment planning for IOP/PHP

Practices can create treatment plan templates for each program type, intensive outpatient (IOP) or partial hospitalization (PHP), and use Wiley's 32 PracticePlanners for structured, personalized care. Valant helps IOP/PHP programs:

- Configure templates for specific IOP/PHP programs
- Comply with payer and regulatory requirements
- Use 32 Wiley PracticePlanners for evidence-based structure
- Build personalized, goal-oriented plans for IOP/PHP patients

## Progress tracking and reimbursement

Tracking clinical documentation and patient progress together gives practices the evidence they need to be reimbursed for their services.

## Audit readiness

Practices can configure templates with built-in guardrails that require the data fields and measurable goals their most demanding payers expect. Combined with the content libraries, this helps practices build comprehensive plans that pass documentation audits.

## Content libraries

Pre-built treatment plan content reduces cognitive load and speeds up documentation. It includes:

- A built-in evidence-based library
- Wiley PracticePlanners
- Custom practice libraries
- Provider-specific libraries

## Built for behavioral health

Treatment plan features designed for other medical specialties create extra manual work for behavioral health practices. Valant's treatment planning is designed to scale with practices and their payers, with built-in guardrails for compliant, comprehensive documentation.

## Frequently asked questions

### What's the easiest way to build a treatment plan during a telehealth visit without slowing down the session?

Give clinicians a clear structure so they don't start from scratch. Templates, evidence-based content, and note-connected workflows make treatment planning more manageable during virtual care while keeping the focus on the patient.

### How do I create a treatment plan that works for virtual care and still meets documentation requirements?

Use a workflow that supports both flexibility and consistency. Configurable templates, measurable goals, required fields, and review-cycle reminders help teams build plans that work for telehealth and still meet documentation and payer expectations.

### How do I keep treatment planning from feeling robotic on video visits?

Give clinicians structure, not scripts. With useful templates and adaptable content, they spend less energy building the framework and more energy personalizing the plan with the patient.

### Do you have a treatment plan library I can customize by diagnosis and modality?

Yes. Valant includes evidence-based content libraries, 32 integrated Wiley PracticePlanners, configurable templates, and custom practice and provider libraries that support a wide range of diagnoses, modalities, and patient populations.

### What's the difference between treatment plan goals, objectives, and interventions?

Goals define the broader outcomes a patient is working toward. Objectives break those goals into measurable steps. Interventions are the actions or strategies used to support progress. Good treatment planning connects all three in a way that is meaningful for care and documentation.

### Can I build treatment plans quickly from intake information and diagnoses?

Yes. Templates, evidence-based libraries, and structured planning tools help clinicians move efficiently from intake findings and diagnoses to personalized treatment plans.

### How do I standardize treatment plans across clinicians but still allow flexibility?

Give the practice shared templates, review workflows, and content libraries for consistency, while letting each clinician personalize plans based on the patient, modality, and stage of care.

### What's the best way to train clinicians on treatment planning inside the EHR?

Training is easier when clinicians work from shared templates, built-in libraries, and supervisor-guided review. A consistent framework gives supervisors and new clinicians a stronger foundation.
