Psychiatry Billing Services in New Hampshire for Accurate Claims and Reliable Revenue

Common Psychiatry Billing Challenges That Affect Your Revenue
Incorrect E/M and Psychotherapy Add-On Coding
The psychiatrist can perform a medication management visit and psychotherapy session in a single visit. But if such a combination is reported, proper documentation and coding must be done. We analyze the E/M service and the psychotherapy minutes for any unsupported combination before billing.
Medication Management Documentation Gaps
Incorrect documentation on the psychiatric evaluation, decisions, services provided, and follow up can result in problems with reimbursement. Our group reviews the documentation that is present, finds out what is missing, and this information may affect the E/M code chosen or the payer's requirements.
Telepsychiatry Billing and Payer Restrictions
A telepsychiatric session has unique payer criteria, location of service criteria, and modifiers. We scrutinize the telehealth claims for coding errors, eligibility issues, or limitations from the payer before submission.
Psychiatric Credentialing and Claim Denials
Inaccurate taxonomy code, obsolete enrollment data, or behavioral health network limitations will affect claim submission. We assist psychiatrists and PMHNPs resolve credentialing problems and denials of claim.
Our Psychiatry Medical Billing Process
for Consistent Claim Management
The practice of psychiatry requires a billing system that will link documentation to proper claims and follow-ups through insurance. The following is our approach to cover three key aspects of psychiatric revenue cycle management.
Psychiatric Documentation and Coverage Review
This step involves the verification of insurance eligibility, participation of the provider, authorization needs, and availability of documentation. This is especially true for cases involving medication management and psychotherapy.
CPT, ICD-10-CM, and E/M Coding Verification
We review codes for psych evaluations, E/M codes, psychotherapy add-on codes, code specificities, and modifiers. We review the selected codes in context with the performed services and in consideration of payer rules prior to submitting claims.
Claim Submission and Payment Recovery
We file psychological insurance claims, track the payment process, record payments made, and review denial of claims. We also follow up on outstanding accounts receivable and look into reimbursement issues to ensure that you have greater clarity about your finances.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
What are psychiatry billing services?
Psychiatric billing services help psychiatric physicians streamline their insurance processes by providing services such as psychiatric coding, insurance verification, claims submission, processing claims, denial management, credentialing, and accounts receivable.
What CPT codes are commonly used in psychiatry billing?
Common codes used include 90791 and 90792 for psychiatric exam, 99202-99215 for in office/outpatient E/M visit, and 90833, 90836, 90838 for qualifying psychotherapy with E/M. The codes would depend on the provider type, service type being delivered, and what you need to bill.
Can psychiatrists bill medication management and psychotherapy together?
Yes. Both services should meet the criteria. It is possible for the psychiatrist to report one eligible E/M service with a psychotherapy add-on code if the documentation reflects separately identifiable services. Time spent on psychotherapy cannot overlap with E/M service time.
Do you provide billing support for psychiatric nurse practitioners?
Yes. We provide E/M coding reviews, medication management billing, enrollment, denials management and insurance follow up for PMHNPs. This will depend upon the providers credentials, payers policies and any other regulations.
Why should New Hampshire psychiatry practices outsource their billing?
Outsourcing will reduce administration such as coding checks, insurance chasing, claims for payment and reconciling payments. It will also allow a dedicated billing team to assist psychiatrists with identifying issues with their payments whilst freeing up your in-house staff to concentrate on patients.
