Why Psychiatric Billing is So Complex

Psychiatric billing requires strict adherence to coding guidelines, documentation standards, and payer-specific behavioral health rules. Even small errors can result in significant revenue loss.

Without specialized expertise, psychiatric practices often face delays, denials, and administrative overload that impact both financial stability and patient care.

Common challenges include:

Left unresolved, these issues can significantly reduce monthly revenue performance for psychiatric practices.

Psychiatric Billing FAQs

Can a psychiatrist bill an E/M visit and psychotherapy on the same day?
Yes. The E/M visit is billed with a psychotherapy add-on code (90833, 90836 or 90838) when psychotherapy is separately documented with start and stop times. Time spent on the E/M portion cannot be counted toward the psychotherapy time.

Do payers cover TMS therapy?
Medicare and most commercial plans cover TMS for major depressive disorder when coverage criteria are met, such as documented failure of prior medication trials. Most commercial plans also require prior authorization, which we request and track before treatment starts.

How do you handle Spravato billing?
We verify benefits and prior authorization for both the medication and the monitoring visit, then bill the observation service (G2082 or G2083 for Medicare) with the documentation each payer requires.

How do you handle switching billing companies?
We review your open A/R first so no outstanding claims are lost during the transition.
