It’s infuriating. It’s a time stealer. It’s not what you signed up for when you became a practitioner. Yet, the stark reality is this: without a dedicated billing expert for your business, you might actually go out of business. In fact, it’s estimated that for every 40 hours billed, you need 10 hours to manage the billing process! (Gasp).

We know. We initially outsourced our small psychiatry practice billings to a huge medical billing company only to discover that they were driving us towards bankruptcy:

• Skyrocketing rates of rejected claims

• Escalating accounts receivables

• Growing complaints from patients about billing errors

• Mounting frustration with an unreachable customer service team

We were literally hemorrhaging money before we took the process in house, deciphered the mess, and put together a path to profitability – making us experts in a completely confusing, constantly changing mental health billing field.
