ApproveThis manages your Zoconut Integration approvals.

Why Your Clinic Needs This Integration (Like, Yesterday)

Let's cut through the BS: client onboarding in healthcare practices sucks. Between intake forms, service agreements, and compliance checks, your team's probably drowning in Slack threads that start with "Hey, did anyone approve the new keto client?" That's where smashing ApproveThis and Zoconut together turns your approval circus into a well-oiled machine.

Zoconut handles client management like a champ - tracking new patients, meal plans, and progress notes. ApproveThis? It's the muscle that actually gets shit approved without chasing people down. Connect them through Zapier, and suddenly every new client in Zoconut automatically kicks off your customized approval workflows. No more lost emails. No more "I thought YOU were handling it." Just actual adults running a clinic instead of herding cats.

How This Power Couple Actually Works

Here's the playbook: when your nutritionists add a new client in Zoconut, Zapier tells ApproveThis to start whatever approval process you've built. Maybe it's:

• Sign-off on high-risk pregnancy cases
• Budget approval for custom meal plan budgets

Approvers get email notifications (they can approve/reject right from Outlook without logging into anything), thresholds auto-approve routine cases, and if someone's OOO, their backup gets tapped automatically. Meanwhile, your operations lead can see every pending decision in one dashboard instead of playing detective across eight different tools.

Real-World Use Cases That Don't Suck

Scenario 1: The Compliance Time Bomb

Imagine a pediatric obesity clinic where every new client under 12 needs dual sign-off from a lead dietitian and legal. Before? Documents sat in someone's inbox for days. Now? Zoconut adds the client > ApproveThis routes to both approvers > if no response in 24hrs, it escalates to the clinic director. Bonus: All approvals get logged automatically for audit trails.

Scenario 2: The Budget Black Hole

Corporate wellness teams using Zoconut to onboard entire companies: When a new 200-employee client comes in, ApproveThis triggers:

• Auto-approve deals under $10k
• Route $10k-$25k to the VP
• Anything higher requires CFO + Legal review

Pro tip: Use calculated fields to adjust thresholds based on the client's industry risk factors pulled from Zoconut data.

Setting This Up Without Losing Your Mind

Step 1: Sign up for ApproveThis (takes 3 minutes)
Step 2: Build your approval workflow - think "Who needs to approve what, and in which order?"
Step 3: In Zapier, create a new Zap: Zoconut "New Client" → ApproveThis "Create Request"
Step 4: Test with real client data (we suggest using that annoying corporate client everyone hates)
Step 5: Watch your team actually take lunch breaks for once

Key thing: Approvers don't need Zoconut logins. Your external contract dietitians? They just reply to emails. Your CFO? They approve via SMS. No new software, no training - just fewer interruptions.

Department Wins That Actually Matter

Clinical Teams

Dietitians stop playing approval secretary. New high-risk client? Approval requests hit the right specialists automatically based on Zoconut's client tags. Conditional routing means pregnancy cases go to prenatal experts, athletes to sports nutrition leads.

Finance Nerds

Auto-approve repeat clients under $5k. Flag budget overages before contracts finalize. Real-time reports show exactly which approvers are bottlenecks (looking at you, accounting).

Operations Heroes

Dashboards show every pending client approval across all clinics. Vacation delegation means no more "Jen's out, who's covering?" clusterfucks. SLA tracking proves you're hitting compliance targets.

Why This Isn't Just Another Integration

Most approval tools make you choose between flexibility and simplicity. ApproveThis + Zoconut through Zapier gives both:

- Client Context Where It Matters: Approval requests pull Zoconut client data automatically - no switching tabs to find meal plans or health notes.
- Compliance That Doesn't Slow You Down: Automatic audit trails meet HIPAA/whatever regulations without staff doing extra work.
- Scale Without More Headcount: 100 clients or 10,000 - the system handles routing so your best people aren't bogged down in admin.

Cool Features You'll Actually Use

Beyond basic approvals, this combo lets you:
- Set dynamic thresholds based on Zoconut client health scores
- Auto-escalate approvals when response SLAs are missed
- Generate reports showing approval bottlenecks per clinic/location
- Attach Zoconut client files directly to approval requests
- Use calculated fields to flag budget vs actual time investments

The Bottom Line (Because We Know You're Busy)

If your clinic's approval process involves more than two "per my last email" follow-ups, this integration pays for itself in reduced staff frustration alone. But since execs care about numbers: Teams using ApproveThis + Zoconut typically see 65% faster client onboarding and 90% fewer compliance hiccups.
