Psychiatrist Billing Services
Proven Psychiatrist Billing Services for Mental Health Practices
Psychiatric billing is a specialty of its own. Claims often involve time-based therapy codes, medication management, telepsychiatry rules, and strict payer documentation requirements. Mistakes or omissions lead to denials, delayed payments, and cash flow disruption.
At The Ashez Group, we offer proven psychiatrist billing services, tailored for mental health providers, clinics, and solo psychiatrists. Our certified psychiatrist billing specialists expertly manage coding, claim submission, denial appeals, and revenue cycle oversight — so you can focus on patient care rather than administrative headaches.
Why Psychiatric Billing Is Especially Challenging
Psychiatry faces several unique billing pressures and evolving trends:
Time-based CPT coding & session modifiers — psychiatry visits are often billed by minute increments, making accurate documentation and coding essential. TAG BLOG
Telepsychiatry & behavioral health policy changes — new regulations expanded telehealth billing opportunities but also introduced more payer scrutiny. Tele Health Resources Center
Prior authorizations & session limits — some insurers require authorizations or restrict therapy frequency.
High denial risk from documentation gaps — vague clinical notes, insufficient justification for therapy sessions, or missing progress metrics often trigger claims denials. HHS
Behavioral health billing complexity and fragmentation — multiple CPT codes, diagnosis mapping (DSM-5 to ICD-10), and modifier usage demand specialized coders.
Given all this, a general billing partner is often inadequate. You need a billing service with deep psychiatric domain knowledge.
✅ Top 3 Proven Psychiatrist Billing Services We Deliver
1️⃣ Expert Time-Based & Session Coding Audit
Our psychiatrist billing specialists audit your clinical notes to ensure accurate coding (e.g. 90834, 90837, 90791, 99213, etc.) with correct modifiers, duration logic, and diagnosis linkage. We flag and correct inconsistencies before claims go out — reducing rejections and helping you get paid what you deserve.
2️⃣ Clean Claim Submission & Telehealth Optimization
Before submission, each claim is run through multiple checks: payer-specific edits, telehealth billing compliances, modifier rules, and documentation alignment. This ensures your claim submission for psychiatric services is clean, compliant, and prepared to clear payer scrutiny.
3️⃣ Denial Management & Revenue Recovery Strategy
Denied or underpaid claims are identified, categorized, and resubmitted swiftly. We analyze rejection patterns, update workflows to prevent repeat denials, and maintain dashboards so you can see denial rates, A/R days, and revenue impact over time.
