Funding Insights helps Admin users identify their organization's strongest Measurement-Based Care (MBC) metrics for funding and reimbursement conversations.
What is Funding Insights?
Funding Insights is a feature that surfaces your organization's strongest benchmarked performance data and pairs it with ready-to-use narrative text you can use in external funding and reimbursement conversations. It is designed to reduce the work required to decide which metrics to use and how to explain them clearly to funders and payers.
Customers consistently struggle to turn their MBC data into compelling funding narratives. Few organizations successfully use their data in grants or reimbursement and no standard set of metrics exists across funders. Funding Insights closes this gap by identifying each organization's strengths and providing the context and language needed for funding conversations.
Who can use Funding Insights?
Funding Insights is designed for Admins who prepare funding applications, board presentations, and payer discussions.
This may include:
Clinic Admins & Organization Leaders - Primary users who need data to support grant applications, rate negotiations, and board reporting. They can self-serve funding-ready metrics without waiting for ad-hoc data requests.
Funding & Payer Relations Staff - Can leverage precise, benchmarked data to strengthen proposals and demonstrate measurable clinical impact to funders.
What does Funding Insights show?
Funding Insights is designed to highlight strengths first. The page automatically surfaces:
Strongest relevant metrics based on where your organization performs at or above the Greenspace median.
Benchmarked performance context showing how your organization compares to the Greenspace median and 75th percentile within the selected treatment category.
Ready-to-use narratives tailored to your clinic's actual data that can be copied into applications and presentations.
Funding relevance explanations that describe why each metric matters in funding conversations.
MBC Practice indicators such as patient reach, provider adoption, assessment volume, and average score improvement to help demonstrate MBC maturity.
How it works
Admins can adjust the view by selecting a clinic, comparison group, and time period. All metric sections update based on those filters.
Only outcome metric sections where the clinic exceeds the 50th percentile on at least one assessment are shown. Within each section, only assessments above the median are displayed. This keeps the page focused on favorable, credible strengths for external conversations.
Metrics above the 75th percentile are highlighted as top-quartile performance, while metrics above the median are shown as above average.
Each chart includes copy and download options, and the demonstrated performance narrative includes a copy button for quick reuse.
Metric Sections
Funding Insights may display the following sections: Reliable Improvement Rates, Recovery Rates, Improvement Score (Severity-Adjusted),Therapeutic Alliance, and MBC Practice.
To learn more about how Improvement Score (Severity-Adjusted) is calculated, please click here.
Reliable Improvement Rates
% of clients with clinically meaningful symptom reduction (exceeding the Reliable Change Index)
Sample Assessments: PHQ-9, GAD-7, PCL-5, PSC-17, OASIS
Recovery Rates
% of clients who started above the caseness threshold and moved below it at follow-up
Sample Assessments: PHQ-9, GAD-7, PCL-5, PSC-17, OASIS, WSAS
Improvement Score (Severity-Adjusted)
Fair outcome comparison accounting for baseline severity differences across organizations
Sample Assessments: PHQ-9, GAD-7, PCL-5, PSC-17, OASIS, WSAS
Therapeutic Alliance
Patient-provider relationship quality scores benchmarked against peers
Sample Assessments: BR-WAI, SRS, WAI-6
MBC Practice
Patient count, provider count, total assessments completed, average score improvement
Common Use Cases
Funding Insights supports multiple practical scenarios for leveraging MBC data in financial conversations:
Grant applications: An admin preparing a SAMHSA or state grant opens Funding Insights, sees their clinic's Reliable Improvement Rate exceeds the 75th percentile on the PHQ-9 and GAD-7, copies the performance narrative, and pastes it directly into the grant application's outcomes section.
Rate negotiations: A clinical director meeting with a managed care organization uses the Severity-Adjusted Improvement Score and Recovery Rate data to demonstrate superior outcomes relative to peers, supporting a case for higher reimbursement rates.
Board presentations: An executive preparing a quarterly board update exports the MBC Practice metrics and top outcome benchmarks to show the maturity and impact of their MBC program.
Value-based care discussions: An organization exploring VBC arrangements uses Funding Insights to present benchmarked outcome data to a payer, demonstrating they deliver measurable clinical results that justify performance-based payment.
Accreditation and compliance: A quality improvement lead references benchmarked recovery rates and reliable improvement data in CARF or Joint Commission documentation to demonstrate evidence-based practice and continuous improvement.
Frequently Asked Questions
Why do I only see some metrics?
Funding Insights is designed to highlight strengths. Metric sections only appear if the clinic performs at or above the Greenspace median (50th percentile) on at least one assessment within that section. This ensures the data shared with funders is always favorable and credible.
What if none of my outcome metrics exceed the median?
The MBC Practice section is always displayed regardless of benchmark performance. It shows patient reach, provider count, total assessments, and average score improvement. This area demonstrates scale of MBC implementation, even when impressive outcomes have not been achieved yet. An informational message explains that additional benchmarked outcome metrics will appear as the organization's MBC practice matures and outcomes exceed the Greenspace median.
What comparison groups are available?
The same treatment categories available in MBC Benchmarks V2:
Community MH Centres – Outpatient (Adult)
Community MH Centres – Outpatient (Youth)
Hospitals – Outpatient (Adult / Youth)
Schools – Outpatient (Youth)
Private Practice – Outpatient (Adult / Youth)
Facility-based SUD – Inpatient (All Ages)
Inpatient & Residential MH (All Ages)
Intensive Ambulatory and PHP (All Ages)
Psychiatric Rehabilitation Programs (All Ages)
All Organizations
Can I copy or export the data?
Yes. Each chart includes copy and download icons. The "Demonstrated Performance" narrative includes a copy button. Full-page PDF export is planned as a nice-to-have pending development effort.
How is Funding Insights different from MBC Benchmarks?
MBC Benchmarks shows full performance across all metrics — including areas below the median. Funding Insights curates only the organization's strongest metrics, adds funding-specific context ("Funding Relevance"), and generates ready-to-use narrative text — specifically designed for external conversations with funders and payers, not internal quality improvement.
Does changing the time period affect benchmarks?
Changing the time period changes the clinic's performance data but does not change the benchmarked values. This is communicated on the page in the card footer underneath "Demonstrated Performance."
How are metrics ordered on the page?
Metric sections appear in this order: Reliable Improvement, Recovery Rate, Improvement Score (Severity-Adjusted), Therapeutic Alliance, MBC Practice. Within each section, assessments are ordered by performance strength (highest percentile rank first). MBC Practice is always last, except when it's the only section shown.
What's planned after V1?
Future considerations include: additional benchmarked metrics, agent-assisted narrative customization via chat, conversational analytics for custom funding queries, ROI calculators, additional comparison group options, showing sample sizes, and tracking organizational improvement over time.

Note on Sample Size Variability
It is important to note that the sample sizes shown above reflect the total pool of customers available for each comparison group. In practice, sample sizes may vary between individual tiles and assessments on the dashboard, depending on data availability for the specific metric being displayed. Tiles may draw on a smaller subset of the above figures where data is incomplete or not applicable for certain organizations.
