Mental Health Billing Services

Specialized Revenue Cycle Management for Behavioral & Mental Health Providers

BillVolt delivers expert mental health medical billing and revenue cycle management (RCM) for psychiatrists, psychologists, therapists, counselors, and behavioral health practices across the United States. Mental health billing is uniquely complex with time-based coding, payer restrictions, authorization requirements, and strict compliance rules and BillVolt is built to manage it accurately, securely, and profitably.

We help mental health providers reduce denials, accelerate reimbursements, and maintain full compliance, so you can focus on patient outcomes not paperwork.

Why Mental Health Billing Requires Specialized Expertise

Mental and behavioral health billing differs significantly from other medical specialties due to:

Time-based CPT codes and session duration requirements
Frequent prior authorization and medical necessity reviews
Telehealth-specific billing rules and payer variations
High denial risk related to documentation and modifier misuse
Coordination between commercial insurance, Medicare, and Medicaid
Strict HIPAA, 42 CFR Part 2, and payer compliance standards

Without specialty expertise, these challenges often lead to delayed payments, denied claims, and compliance exposure. BillVolt is purpose-built to handle them.
