FAQS: MENTAL HEALTH BILLING SERVICES

How much do mental health billing services cost?

We charge 3-5% of collected reimbursements with no hidden fees. Unlike flat-rate services (which can overcharge small practices) or large companies with setup fees, you only pay when we get you paid.

What’s included in your mental health billing services?

Our end-to-end service covers insurance claim submission and tracking, denial management and appeals (with an average denial rate under 5%), patient billing and payment posting, monthly revenue reports tailored for therapists, and free EHR integration with systems like SimplePractice and TherapyNotes.

Do you handle credentialing for new mental health providers?

Yes. We manage full insurance paneling including Medicare, Medicaid, and commercial payers. Our credentialing service includes CAQH setup and updates, application submissions, and persistent follow-ups until you're fully approved.

How do you handle denied claims for therapy sessions?

We use a 3-step denial recovery system. First, instant claim scrubbing catches errors before submission. Second, we file payer-specific appeals using our knowledge of each insurer's mental health rules. Third, we conduct underpayment audits that typically recover 15-30% more revenue for our clients.

Can you bill for both in-person and telehealth therapy sessions?

Absolutely. We ensure compliance with all telehealth requirements including proper use of modifiers (95, GT, POS 02), state-specific billing rules, and individual payer policies for virtual therapy sessions

What’s your turnaround time for submitting claims?

We file claims within 24 hours of session documentation. This fast submission process leads to shorter reimbursement cycles (typically 14-21 days) and helps avoid timely filing denials.

How do you protect patient data in billing?

We maintain strict HIPAA compliance through encrypted EHR integrations, secure patient payment portals, and SOC 2-certified servers for all data storage and transmission.

Why choose a mental health-specific billing company?

Generic billers often miss critical therapy-specific details like code differences (90837 vs. 90834), mental health documentation requirements, and payer nuances for behavioral health. Our specialists work exclusively with therapists, which reduces billing errors by 40%.

How long does switching to MedStates take?

Most practices complete the transition in 7-10 days. We handle all aspects including data extraction from your current system, insurance contract validation, and optional staff training.

Do you offer a free trial or billing audit?

Yes. We provide a no-cost practice analysis that includes a claim denial review, underpayment recovery estimate, and custom savings report. Contact us today to schedule your free audit.
