The weekly new client limit is the maximum number of new clients you’d want Rula to schedule for you in any given week.
Clients are matched with you based on your preferred populations, therapy methods (modalities), areas of expertise, and availability. Your profile is also visible to those who are uncertain about their specialization needs. Log in to your provider portal to verify your weekly new client limit. Weekly new client limits are active as soon as you update them in the provider portal.
Rula will attempt to match you with clients until your weekly new client limit is met for the week. Rula will never send you more clients than what you have your limit set to.
You can update your weekly new client limit in the Rula provider portal on the practice page.
Note: Your weekly new client limit is separate from your desired caseload. For example, if you have set your desired caseload for 20 clients and your weekly new client limit for 5 clients, that means that you'll get a maximum of 5 clients per week until you have 20 different clients in total. |
Potential reasons why you aren't getting matched with clients
Here are some common reasons why you might not be getting matched:
- You may need to increase your desired caseload. Check out this article to learn how to update your desired caseload in the Rula provider portal.
