About Us

Behavioral Health Billing

Your partner in maximizing client-approved treatment and health insurance payments.
Treatment expenses can be overwhelming and can distract from the therapeutic process. We focus on assisting facilities that treat mental health and substance abuse including: detox, residential treatment (RTC), partial hospitalization (PHP), intensive outpatient (IOP) and general outpatient (GOP). We are with you and your clients before, during and after treatment. Before a client is admitted to treatment, we complete a thorough insurance verification of benefits. Once insurance is verified, our team works to obtain authorizations so no days are uncovered. During treatment, we complete all utilization reviews including any peer reviews. Upon completion of the services, we submit all claims in a timely manner so you can receive maximum reimbursement. Transparency is important, everything is tracked so you know what is happening for each client in real time.
