Better behavioral health billing

Behavioral health billing comes with its own set of challenges—time-based codes, varying coverage for mental health services, strict documentation requirements, and different payer rules across states. 

Helping behavioral health practices succeed: 

  • Behavioral health-specific coding accuracy – Time-based CPT® codes, proper use of modifiers, and accurate documentation support
  • Higher first-pass approval rates – Clean claims and real-time edits that get you paid faster
  • Insurance verification & authorization support – Upfront checks to avoid treatment delays and denials
  • End-to-end RCM coverage – From eligibility and claim submission to denial management and patient collections
  • Compliance with payer & state-specific regulations – HIPAA, Medicaid, and commercial payer requirements handled seamlessly

Our experts ensure accurate coding, reduce denials, and accelerate reimbursements—so you can focus on delivering quality care to your patient.

How will our behavioral health billing services help your practice?

Accurate Coding & Claims Submission

Coding is difficult. No way around it! But we make it look easy. Our experts are certified in coding, and specifically understand the coding needs of an behavioral health practice. 

We code for common behavioral health codes like:

  • Psychiatric Diagnostic Evaluation (CPT 90791, 90792)
  • Psychotherapy – Individual (90832, 90834, 90837)
  • Family Therapy (90846, 90847)
  • Group Therapy (90853)
  • Medication Management (99212–99215 + 90863)
  • Crisis Services, Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP), Partial Hospitalization Program (PHP), and Telehealth Support

But it's not just the codes themselves that make coding difficult. Mastering the coding process for behavioral health practices goes beyond billing; it ensures appropriate reimbursement for the complex services you provide, supports healthcare sustainability, and ultimately enhances patient care quality. By equipping yourself with the right knowledge, resources, and a dedication to best practices, you'll successfully navigate coding challenges and maintain a focus on your patients.
