A2Z Billings provides behavioral & mental health billing services engineered to lift reimbursement accuracy, shrink denial rates, and tighten every link in the revenue cycle for therapists, psychiatrists, and counseling practices across Michigan. Our certified team keeps each claim aligned with the payer’s behavioral health rules, so a reimbursable session never slips away unpaid.
Behavioral health practices in Michigan wrestle with a tangle few other specialties face: prior authorizations on routine sessions, payer-imposed visit caps, carve-out plans routed through managed behavioral health organizations, and the parity rules meant to protect mental health coverage. A2Z Billings absorbs that administrative weight, freeing clinicians to stay present with patients instead of chasing claims.
At A2Z Billings, we run dedicated behavioral health billing for solo therapists, group counseling centers, psychiatric clinics, and multi-clinician practices throughout Michigan. Mental health billing rarely behaves like the rest of medicine. Session length dictates the code, the documentation has to mirror the minutes spent, add-on psychotherapy attaches to an E&M visit, and a single lapsed authorization can stall an entire month of recurring appointments. Our coders and billers live inside those details daily.
Whether you bill straightforward 90834 and 90837 psychotherapy sessions, layer medication management with psychotherapy add-ons (90833, 90836, 90838), or juggle group, family, and crisis intervention codes, our psychiatry billing services cover the whole arc: eligibility checks and benefit verification, authorization tracking, accurate code selection, clean claim submission, denial appeals, and relentless accounts receivable follow-up. You treat. We collect.
From a patient’s first intake call to the final reconciled payment, A2Z Billings manages each pressure point in your behavioral health revenue cycle so revenue stops leaking between the cracks.
We build clean front-end workflows that verify active coverage, confirm behavioral health benefits, and flag deductible and co-insurance status. Just as critically for mental health, we check session limits and authorization requirements before the first appointment. Catching a visit cap early spares your practice a denied claim weeks down the line.
Few specialties lean on authorizations the way behavioral health does. We secure and renew prior authorizations for psychotherapy, psychological testing, intensive outpatient programs, and psychiatric services, tracking unit counts and expiration dates so recurring sessions stay covered without interruption.
Our certified coders assign the correct time-based psychotherapy codes (90832, 90834, 90837), diagnostic evaluation codes (90791, 90792), E&M-plus-psychotherapy add-ons, and the right group, family, and crisis codes, matching every selection to the documented session length and clinical detail. Precise coding is what separates full reimbursement from an audit flag.
Every claim runs through scrubbing edits and a mental health billing clearinghouse before transmission, where we catch missing modifiers, telehealth place-of-service errors, and payer-specific behavioral health rules. Electronic submission to commercial, Medicaid, Medicare, and carve-out payers keeps first-pass acceptance high and your payment cycle short.
When a behavioral health claim bounces an exceeded session limit, a missing authorization, a time-versus-code mismatch, a medical-necessity question we trace the root cause quickly, assemble appeals backed by clinical documentation, and repair the upstream process so the same denial doesn't resurface next month.
We hand practice owners a clear financial picture: collection rates, denial trends by payer, days in AR, and authorization utilization. Acting as your mental health billing consultant, we turn those numbers into decisions that protect and expand your bottom line.
We capture and confirm demographics, insurance details, referral sources, and authorization needs at the front end, building an accurate foundation that heads off costly mistakes before a single claim goes out.
We confirm active coverage, behavioral health carve-out routing, deductible and co-insurance amounts, and per-payer session limits ahead of each visit, so every appointment your clinicians deliver is genuinely billable.
We convert progress notes and psychiatric records into precise CPT, ICD-10-CM, and HCPCS codes, verifying that the session time, modality, and medical necessity captured in the documentation fully support the code billed and satisfy payer policy.
We transmit scrubbed claims electronically, monitor their status in real time, and pursue pending, delayed, or denied claims before they age, driving the fastest realistic reimbursement for your practice.
We post payments accurately, reconcile EOBs against expected contracted rates, surface underpayments and write-off discrepancies, and maintain audit-ready records that leave your accounts balanced and current.
