Eligibility, submission, status tracking and payment posting run as one connected cycle instead of three disconnected tools. Your billing team can see exactly where every claim stands, and what is holding up the ones that stalled.

Eligibility
& Benefits

Real-time payer checks before every appointment, including behavioral health carve-outs, so coverage gaps surface before the visit and not after billing.

Claim
Scrubbing

Every claim checked against payer rules and your own contract terms before it leaves, so errors get caught at source.

Continuous Submission

Claims go out as they are ready rather than in an end-of-week batch, so nothing sits in a queue waiting on a person.

Denial
Management

Denials tracked across every payer, categorised and appealed, with the pattern fed back into scrubbing so the same one stops recurring.

Payment Reconciliation

Remittances and ERAs posted and matched against what you expected to be paid.

Prior
Authorization

Authorization windows monitored, with requests prepared and submitted before they expire.

Payer
Intelligence

Payer-specific behaviour learned over time, so your team works from evidence instead of instinct.

Zero
Backlog

The claim queue is worked continuously, so claims never pile up and collections never slow down.

Automatic
Re-Verification

Coverage is re-checked for recurring patients, so a plan that lapses mid-course doesn't become a denied series.

Submission
Tracking

Submission confirmations tracked in real time, so you know a claim actually landed rather than assuming it did.

Coding
Review

Emma reviews coding before the claim is built, so the code and the note agree.

Appeals

Appeal preparation and resubmission handled automatically, and every resolved denial makes the next scrub smarter.

01

^{BEFORE THE VISIT}

Coverage confirmed, not assumed

Eligibility is checked against the payer in real time as soon as a patient's insurance is added or updated, and on demand whenever you need it, so a lapsed plan surfaces before you bill rather than after.

02

^{AT SUBMISSION}

Built right, then sent

Your payer rules and contracted rates apply to the billing items before the claim is built. Send a single claim or the whole open queue in one action.

03

^{WHEN A CLAIM IS DENIED}

The reason, not just the rejection

Denials and rejections arrive categorised with the payer's reason code attached, and a clearinghouse rejection can be moved to resubmission in one step.

04

^{AFTER PAYMENT}

Reconciled, not assumed

Remittances and ERAs are posted and reconciled automatically, so your team can see what actually landed against each claim.

Payer rules applied up front

Your payer rules and contracted rates apply to the session's billing items before the claim is built, so the right codes and modifiers are on it from the start.

Denials you can actually read

Every denial and rejection arrives categorised with the payer's own reason code attached, so you can see which payers reject what, and why.

Coverage checked in real time

Eligibility runs against the payer as soon as a patient's insurance is added or updated, and on demand whenever you need it, so a lapsed plan surfaces before you bill.

One queue, one action

Open claims sit in a single queue and go out one at a time or all at once, so submitting a day's billing is one action rather than an afternoon.

VP Revenue Cycle, Multi-state Psychiatry Provider

We’ve upleveled with mdhub. No more using my teams on menial billing tasks. Eric touches our claims, while my lean team supervises. They’ve been phenomenal partners.

What customers are saying about

RCM

Eligibility used to be a constant fire drill, with patients showing up on lapsed coverage. Now Sarah and Eric verify every plan before the appointment.

Clinic Administrator · Behavioral Health Center

We went from billing chaos across eight clinicians to one unified claims queue. Eric handles all of it, and I haven't manually touched a claim in months.

Clinical Director, outpatient group practice

Eric keeps our fee-for-service claims moving without burying the billing team. On margins this tight, clean and timely claims matter.

Billing Manager, community behavioral health clinic

Why are behavioral health claims denied more often than general medical claims?

Behavioral health claims carry rules general medical billing does not. Psychotherapy codes are time-defined, so the note has to prove the session length. Add-on codes cannot be reported without their primary code. Parity rules, EAP session limits and out-of-network arrangements each add their own conditions. A denial is usually a documentation mismatch rather than a coding mistake, which is why prevention sits in the note and not in the claim.

Can behavioral health billing software verify insurance before the session?

Yes. Real-time eligibility verification confirms whether a patient's plan is active and what coverage applies before the appointment, which prevents the most avoidable denial of all: a session billed to a dead plan. Eligibility confirms coverage rather than the final patient balance, because an unmet deductible can still change what the patient owes.

What is the difference between billing software that flags errors and billing software that prevents them?

Flagging tells you a claim already failed. Preventing means the check runs before submission, against the payer's rules and the clinical note together. Most tools validate format rather than clinical substance, so a claim can pass a scrubber and still be denied for a missing time entry or an unsupported code. With mdhub, your payer rules and contracted rates apply to the billing items before the claim is built, and denials come back with the payer's own reason code attached.

What does a denied claim actually cost a behavioral health clinic?

More than the value of the claim. Someone has to identify the denial, correct it, resubmit and track it, and payment is delayed by weeks in the meantime. For clinics that hit denials routinely, the recurring staff time exceeds the value of the individual claims. Clinics using mdhub see up to 50% lower operational costs, much of it from work that no longer has to be redone.

Can documentation problems be caught before the claim is submitted?

Yes, and that is the only inexpensive place to catch them. A compliance check that runs against the note before submission catches a missing time field or an unsupported code while the encounter is fresh and the clinician is still available to clarify it. After submission the same problem becomes a denial or an audit response.
