When you move offices, there are a few different things to keep in mind to make sure that your transition is as seamless as possible. In your SimplePractice account, you'll need to do the following:
- Add the new office location
- Update your Availability
- Update upcoming appointments
- Delete your old office location
Additionally, if you file claims through SimplePractice, you'll also need to make sure to notify the insurance payers you work with by contacting them directly. After updating the address that the payers have on file for you, you will also need to make sure that your SimplePractice account reflects those changes:
Important: In addition to the insurance payers, be sure to take into consideration all outside parties that may need to be notified of your address change as well.

Update upcoming appointments

Delete your old office location
Important: Only delete the old office location after you've finished creating insurance claims and superbills for appointments that occurred there. After an office location is deleted from your practice, any existing upcoming appointments tied to that office location will need to be assigned a new office location.

Update insurance settings and enrollment

Important: Make sure to update your address by reaching out to payers directly. Otherwise, you may experience claim denials, rejections, and/or get your checks and EOBs sent to your old address.
- Navigate to My Account > Settings > Billing and Insurance > Insurance
- Confirm that your new address is listed in the Billing Provider Info (Box 33) section, according to what the payer has on file
