Our Mental Healthcare Billing Solutions

Our billing services are built specifically for behavioral health workflows and payer requirements. We provide a structured, compliant, and transparent billing process tailored to your practice.

Insurance Verification & Eligibility

We verify patient eligibility, benefits, deductibles, and authorization requirements prior to service delivery, reducing claim denials and unexpected patient balances.

Accurate Coding & Charge Entry

Our team applies appropriate CPT, ICD-10, and modifier coding for therapy, psychiatry, medication management, and telehealth services to ensure accurate claim submission and compliance.

Claims Submission & Tracking

Claims are submitted electronically and tracked throughout the adjudication process. We monitor claim status and proactively address payer issues to minimize delays.

Denial Management & Appeals

Denied or underpaid claims are analyzed, corrected, and resubmitted promptly. We manage appeals and follow up with payers to recover lost or delayed revenue.

Payment Posting & Reconciliation

Insurance payments and patient payments are accurately posted and reconciled, providing clear visibility into accounts receivable and practice performance.

Patient Billing & Statements

We generate clear, compliant patient statements and support patient balance management while maintaining a positive patient experience.
