Psychiatric Medical Billing Services
Psychiatric billing depends on precise time-based psychotherapy codes, medication-management E/M documentation, and telehealth modifier accuracy — get any of it wrong and claims get denied or underpaid. CoreStone's psychiatry-trained billing team keeps therapy, medication management, and telehealth claims clean and on schedule.
Billing That Understands Psychiatry
From medication management visits to individual and family psychotherapy, psychiatric practices bill a mix of time-based and E/M services — each with its own documentation, add-on code, and telehealth modifier requirements. Our coders and billers are trained specifically on the codes and payer rules unique to psychiatric care.
- ICD-10 coding for mood, anxiety, psychotic & substance-use disorders
- CPT coding for psychotherapy add-on codes & time-based session billing
- Medication-management E/M documentation and coding accuracy
- Telehealth place-of-service & modifier compliance for virtual visits
- Prior authorization support for psychological testing & intensive programs

Caring Revenue Cycle Management For Psychiatry Practices
Psychiatry practices are under constant pressure to raise the standard of care while facing reduced reimbursement, growing regulatory risk, and thinner margins. Maximizing your revenue cycle — billing, coding, and accounts receivable — is essential to keeping up with an increasingly complex payer landscape.
CoreStone is committed to offering the best psychiatry billing services available, covering nearly every aspect of the billing and patient revenue cycle. We work to secure the fastest possible reimbursement for your practice — the sooner a clean claim goes out, the sooner you get paid. That's why our billing experts are on call around the clock, working while you sleep.
