BEHAVIORAL HEALTH
Behavioral Health Billing Services
Behavioral health billing has its own rules: timed psychotherapy codes, telehealth requirements, session limits and frequent authorizations. A small mistake in time or code selection can lead to denials. AviRex RCM provides billing support for psychiatrists, psychologists, therapists and behavioral health groups, so you can spend your time with clients, not claim forms.
