Why Mental Health Providers Trust Medical Biller?

Mental health billing is often complex due to denials for therapy codes, prior authorization requirements, and telehealth regulations. Errors in CPT coding (e.g., 90837, 90834), medication management documentation, or Medicaid/Medicare compliance can impact revenue and delay care. Medical Biller ensures precise billing for individual therapy, group sessions, and psychiatric care so you can focus on patient well-being.

Detailed Insights:

High denial rates for 90837 claims due to insufficient documentation, slow prior auth approvals for IOP and PHP, and telehealth claims rejected for missing POS codes created major billing issues.
A 12-month claims audit identified CPT coding errors and CDI gaps. Payer-specific prior auth templates were created for TMS and IOP, while staff received training on telehealth billing compliance.
Therapy claim denial rates dropped from 35% to 5%, and reimbursement time improved from 90 to 18 days. An additional $200K was recovered, prior auth approvals accelerated to 10 days, and telehealth acceptance rose to 98%.
$200K in revenue was recovered in six months, prior auth approvals dropped from 45 to 10 days, and telehealth claim acceptance rose to 98%.
