Our Mental Health Billing
Process Behind Results
Patient Insurance Verification (VOB)
Confirm active coverage, copay, deductible, session limits, telehealth eligibility, and authorization requirements before the appointment.
This prevents eligibility denials and unexpected patient balances.
Accurate CPT & ICD-10 Coding
Assign correct therapy duration codes (e.g., 90834, 90837), add-on codes, and diagnosis codes aligned with documentation. Reduces medical necessity denials and audit risk.
Claim Scrubbing & Submission
Claims are reviewed for formatting errors, missing data, and payer-specific rules before electronic submission. Improves first-pass acceptance rate.
Payment Posting (ERA/EOB)
Insurance payments, contractual adjustments, patient responsibility, and denials are accurately posted. Ensures clean financial reporting.
Accounts Receivable (AR) Follow-Up
Unpaid claims are monitored and followed up proactively after payer processing windows.
Reduces aging AR over 60–90 days.
Provider Credentialing & Payer Setup
Ensure the provider is enrolled, contracted, and properly linked with payers and group NPIs.
Prevents “provider not enrolled” and jurisdiction-based denials.
Charge Entry & Claim Creation
Enter session details, modifiers (telehealth, GT/95), place of service codes, and provider identifiers correctly. Prevents front-end clearinghouse rejections.
Rejection Management
Clearinghouse rejections are corrected immediately and resubmitted within 24–48 hours.
Prevents unnecessary payment delays.
Denial Management & Appeals
Denied claims are analyzed by reason code (CARC/RARC) and corrected or appealed accordingly. Reduces recurring denial patterns.
Patient Billing & Collections
Statements are generated for copays, coinsurance, and deductibles. Payment plans may be structured.
