Dedicated billers who actually understand how a therapy practice runs

Your Dedicated Therapy & Counseling Billing Partner

Therapy billing looks deceptively simple from the outside one provider, one client, a fifty-minute hour. Underneath, it’s a thicket of time-based codes, session caps, authorization rules, and payer policies that shift without much warning. Bill a 53-minute session as 90834 instead of 90837 and you’ve quietly underpaid yourself. Bill it the other way without the documentation to back it up, and you’ve handed an auditor a reason to look closer. We live in that detail so you don’t have to. For more than fifteen years our team has billed for solo counselors, group practices, and sprawling behavioral health organizations from coast to coast. We treat your revenue cycle as an extension of your own front desk only one that never forgets to verify benefits, never lets a denial gather dust, and never stops following up until a claim is either paid or appealed to the wall. Your job is the person sitting across from you. Ours is making sure that hour gets paid.

Therapy & Counseling Billing Services We Provide

Counseling practices don’t all bill the same way a sliding-scale solo therapist and a twenty-clinician group have wildly different needs. Whatever shape your practice takes, we cover every link in the chain, from the benefits call before intake to the appeal letter after a wrongful denial.

Psychotherapy CPT Coding

Individual therapy lives and dies by the clock. We assign 90832, 90834, and 90837 against the actual documented session length, attach interactive complexity (90785) when the encounter calls for it, and make sure every progress note supports the code billed because payers scrutinize 90837 harder than almost anything else in behavioral health.

Psychiatric Diagnostic Evaluations

The intake sets the tone for the entire treatment episode. We code 90791 and 90792 correctly, separate the diagnostic evaluation from the first therapy session wherever a payer demands it, and keep your new-client onboarding from stalling out in claim limbo.

Family, Couples & Group Therapy Billing

Sessions with more than one person in the room carry their own quirks. We handle 90846 and 90847 for family and couples work, plus 90853 for group therapy, mapping each claim to the correct client of record and a supportable diagnosis so it doesn't bounce on a technicality nobody saw coming.

Eligibility & Benefits Verification

We pin down coverage before your client ever sits down copays, deductibles, coinsurance, visit limits, and whether teletherapy is even covered under their plan. Settling eligibility upfront is the cheapest denial you will ever prevent.

Prior Authorization & Session Limits

Plenty of plans cap visits or demand authorization once a client passes a certain number of sessions. We track every authorization on file, flag the ones running low before they expire, and file extension requests early so treatment is never interrupted by paperwork your client didn't know existed.

Telehealth Therapy Billing

Virtual sessions still trip up a surprising number of practices. We apply the right modifiers and place-of-service codes for home and remote settings, keep pace with each payer's evolving telehealth policy, and bill online counseling exactly the way the plan expects to see it not the way it worked last year.

Claims Submission & Scrubbing

Every claim gets a hard look before it leaves us: codes, modifiers, diagnosis linkage, demographics, the works. Clean claims out the door mean fewer rejections back through the door, and money that lands in weeks rather than quarters.

Denial Management & Appeals

A denial isn't where we quit; it's where we start digging. We trace each one back to whatever tripped it, rebuild the claim with the documentation it should have carried the first time, and push appeals through until the revenue comes home or there's genuinely nothing left to argue.

Payment Posting & AR Follow-Up

Payments are posted accurately and reconciled against what was actually owed, with every discrepancy investigated instead of waved through. Then we work the aging report hounding stalled balances, untangling payer holdups, and driving your AR days down month after month.

How Our Therapy Billing Process Works

Intake & Verification

Before the first session, we confirm eligibility, capture the benefit details, and surface any authorization requirements so billing starts clean instead of scrambling to catch up.

Session Coding

Each session note is matched to the correct psychotherapy code, add-on, and modifier, with documentation reviewed against payer expectations before a single claim is generated.

Claim Submission

Scrubbed claims go out quickly through your clearinghouse, with demographics, diagnoses, and code linkage double-checked so the first submission is the one that gets reimbursed.

Denial & AR Work

Rejections get worked the day they land. We appeal denials, chase aging balances, and keep payers honest, so your revenue never quietly stalls inside the system.

Reporting & Reconciliation

You receive clear, regular reporting collections, denial trends, AR aging so you can actually see the financial health of your practice instead of guessing at it from the bank balance.

Outsourced Therapy Billing Built for Mental Health Practices

Handing your billing to us lifts the administrative weight off your practice while raising your collection rate with no in-house biller to recruit, train, certify, or cover when they call in sick.

Stop Drowning in Admin

Verification calls, claim entry, denial research, statement runs every hour your front desk loses to billing is an hour stolen from clients. We absorb the whole load.

Get Paid What You're Actually Owed

Therapy-specific coding knowledge means we catch the under-coded sessions, the missed add-ons, and the misapplied modifiers that quietly bleed revenue out of mental health practices one claim at a time.

Faster Cash, Steadier Flow

Clean first-pass claims paired with relentless follow-up shrink the gap between the session and the deposit, smoothing out the cash-flow swings that keep solo and small-group practices on edge.

Why Therapists & Counselors Trust Mental Health Billing

Why Therapists & Counselors Trust Mental Health Billing

Choosing who handles your revenue is no small decision it’s the line between a practice that pays you fairly and one that leaks money you’ll never notice is gone. Here’s why counselors across the country hand us their billing.

Behavioral Health Is All We Do

We’re not a general medical billing shop dabbling in therapy on the side. Mental health billing its codes, its caps, its parity requirements is the entire job, which is precisely why the nuance gets handled right the first time.
