Denial appeal
A draft appeal written in the payer's language.
Sometimes 'this is probably a good idea' is not enough. Ask your Assistant to ground a clinical recommendation in published evidence and show you what it is relying on.
Ask your Assistant
Evidence-based interventions, cited for this client
You suggested this intervention. Show me the published evidence behind it, prioritizing higher-quality and clinically relevant sources. Tell me what the evidence supports, where it is limited, and whether it applies well to this client's presentation.

Evidence summary: The intervention is supported by several controlled studies for anxiety-related avoidance, with the strongest evidence for structured exposure-based approaches. Evidence is less specific for this client's exact presentation, so I would treat it as a reasonable option rather than a definitive fit.
I can also narrow this to recent systematic reviews or a specific population.
Fictional example · No real client data.
The clinical question, population, intervention, and outcome are clarified enough to search usefully.
Get a concise synthesis with citations and the important limits or disagreements in the evidence.
Research can sharpen judgment. It does not magically erase context, preference, or the fact that your client is one actual person.
Support from controlled research, ideally replicated, showing the intervention works for the problem and population in question, combined with clinical expertise and the client's values and preferences. That three-part definition is the APA's.
Look for randomized trials or systematic reviews in research databases, practice guidelines from professional bodies, and whether the population studied resembles your client. A single small study is a lead, not a verdict.
The published research behind a clinical recommendation, cited, so you can see what the Assistant is relying on before you act on it.
Yes, which is why it shows its sources. Treat it as a well-read colleague pointing you to the literature, then check the study before you rely on it in a treatment plan or a letter.
