Psychiatry Billing Service
Psychiatry billing is more than just codesβit’s about understanding time-based sessions, therapy types, E/M codes, and payer-specific documentation requirements. The complexity increases with new mental health parity laws and frequent changes in CMS guidelines. Many psychiatrists lose revenue due to coding errors, claim denials, and slow reimbursements.
Our certified billing team provides full-spectrum psychiatry billing services tailored to solo practitioners, mental health clinics, and behavioral health groupsβensuring compliance, faster payments, and steady financial growth.
