Effective psychotherapy. If “just talking” to friends benefitted people 80% of the time (which is the success rate for therapy), we’d be out of work. In reality, most effective mental health clinicians have a waiting list.https://twitter.com/morganhousel/status/1157714756674969600 …

If matching by “effective outcomes” did exist there would be more incentive for clinicians to give clients the “minimum viable treatment” to get best outcome vs. incentives now seem off: more sessions = more money.

That's a common myth about therapy. Poor providers try to keep patients as long as possible to maximize LTV via # of sessions = dependence. Quality providers try to get patients better ASAP since they know they'll refer all their friends, which is organic growth = independence.

Bingo. "Matching" is totally overrated (e.g. personality/demographic/"fit"). Doesn't predict outcomes, though an exception is gender if there are gender-specific issues (e.g. sexual trauma). Only match that matters is getting a good clinician with experience treating that issue.

The algorithm could prioritize efficacy in this matching platform that would boost your ability to bring in more “likely to be successfully treated by you” patients = more
and a flywheel effect would ensure where patient and clinician incentives are alignedThanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. UndoUndo
