Behavioral Health Billing, Done Right

Common Behavioral Health services we bill

Psychiatric diagnostic evaluations, individual, group, and family psychotherapy, E/M with therapy add-on codes, and telehealth visits.

Where Behavioral Health revenue commonly leaks

Most lost revenue in Behavioral Health traces back to time-based code selection and correct place-of-service for telehealth, missed eligibility checks, incomplete documentation, and unworked denials. Each is preventable with the right front-end checks and disciplined follow-up.

How Consult By Me protects it

We verify eligibility and benefits before the visit, apply accurate, up-to-date Behavioral Health coding, scrub every claim before submission, and work denials and appeals to resolution, while keeping you compliant with changing payer rules.

The numbers we watch

We track the metrics that decide whether a Behavioral Health practice thrives: clean-claim rate, days in accounts receivable (A/R), denial rate, and net collection rate, and report them to you in plain language.
