SALESFORCE + KIPU UR
Protect Revenue Before It's Lost
Authorization data lives in Kipu. Decisions about patient care and revenue protection happen in Salesforce. When those two facts do not connect, your team is flying blind.

Your UR Data Is Buried In Kipu. Your Team Needs It In Salesforce. Braided Fixes That.
UR delays equal denied claims. Expired authorizations equal lost revenue. And without centralized visibility, neither gets caught until it is too late. Braided pulls Utilization Review data from Kipu directly into Salesforce, ensuring clinical, billing, and leadership teams always know where authorizations stand without leaving the CRM.
Why connect Kipu to Salesforce?
Utilization Review is one of the most operationally consequential workflows in behavioral health. Authorization gaps cause denied claims. Expired authorizations put census at risk. Payer behavior patterns are nearly impossible to track without centralized data. UR data lives in Kipu; consequently, most teams compensate by:

Manually checking Kipu for authorization status during team huddles
Re-entering authorization numbers and dates into billing systems or spreadsheets
Re-entering authorization numbers and dates into billing systems or spreadsheets
Losing visibility into payer approval rates and denial trends
Building UR dashboards by hand from exported reports
The result is a critical workflow running on manual processes and delayed information. Authorization gaps become revenue gaps. And the revenue cycle pays the price. You can't protect revenue you can't track. Braided pulls UR data from Kipu into Salesforce automatically, which allows the whole organization to work from the same authorizations in real time.
How the Kipu + Salesforce integration works
PULL: Kipu → Salesforce
Braided continuously syncs Utilization Review records from Kipu into Salesforce and associates them with the correct patient records. Your team can view authorization status, track coverage gaps, and build real-time UR dashboards, all without leaving Salesforce.
Includes:
Authorization Numbers
Approved Level of Care
Authorization Start and End Dates
Reviewer Notes
Payer Information
Custom Fields
Updated: On a recurring basis so clinical, billing, and leadership teams always have current information.
Not An Integration Vendor. Infrastructure.
Most integration providers build once and disappear. Braided stays involved. We manage, maintain, support, and update the integration over time as your organization, workflows, and systems evolve.
- Ongoing support when things change
- Field-level updates as your UR data structure evolves
- Workflow adjustments as your team and payer mix grows
- Proactive updates when Kipu changes its systems
An authorization gap is not a data problem. It is a revenue problem. We treat it accordingly.

Manual UR Tracking Hides Risk Until It Is Too Late
Every manually tracked authorization is an authorization at risk of expiring unnoticed. Every spreadsheet reconciliation is a delay in clinical response. Every Kipu-only view is a leadership blind spot. Braided replaces those gaps:

Organization-wide Authorization Visibility
Built for Behavioral Health. Not for Everyone
We understand how authorization data is structured in Kipu, how it maps to clinical episodes in Salesforce, and how it connects to billing accuracy and revenue protection downstream. That is not generic healthcare knowledge. That is deep systems understanding combined with white-glove support. Built around your Salesforce architecture. Braided adapts to your data model, whether you track authorizations at the episode level, the program level, or across multiple locations.
What This Unlocks
UR coordinators
Authorization status visible in Salesforce. No Kipu toggling. No manual exports.
billing teams
Fewer denials tied to authorization mismatches. More accurate, timely claim submissions.
leadership
Payer approval rates, length of stay trends, and authorization gaps visible in one dashboard.
organization
UR, clinical, and billing teams working from the same data. Fewer surprises at month-end.
FAQ
Is this bi-directional?
No. This integration is uni-directional: it pulls UR data from Kipu into Salesforce.
What Kipu UR fields does Braided sync?
Authorization numbers, approved level of care, start and end dates, reviewer notes, and payer data. Custom fields can be mapped based on your environment.
How is Braided different from a custom integration build?
Custom builds are treated like projects (built once, then left alone). In contrast, Braided is managed infrastructure. Ongoing support, updates, and maintenance are included for the life of the relationship.
Can this be combined with the Kipu admissions integration?
Yes. Many organizations run both the admissions and UR integrations to give Salesforce a complete view, from lead through authorization.
How long does implementation take?
Days to weeks depending on your environment and field mapping requirements.
Is this built for behavioral health UR specifically?
Yes. Braided maps Kipu UR data to Salesforce with behavioral health workflows in mind, specifically for these environments rather than generic healthcare.
