Stop Letting Billing Complexity Drain Your Practice
The complete mental health billing software for behavioral health clinics — automated claim submission, eligibility verification, and denial management built for the complexity of psychiatric and therapy billing.
The Billing Challenges Specific to Mental Health
General medical billing software isn't built for psychiatric CPT codes, mental health parity compliance, or the nuances of EAP plans and session limits. Here's what practices deal with daily.
Complex CPT Code Sets
Psychiatric and therapy CPT codes — 90832, 90834, 90837, 90847, 99213+90833 — have specific duration and modifier rules that generic billing tools miss entirely.
Mental Health Parity Compliance
Parity law requires insurers to cover behavioral health like medical — but enforcement is complex. Denials citing "not medically necessary" must be challenged with clinical documentation.
EAP and Out-of-Network Complexity
Employee Assistance Program benefits, session limits, out-of-network reimbursement rates, and superbill requirements create billing scenarios general tools can't handle cleanly.
Prior Authorization Delays
Many psychiatric services — TMS, intensive outpatient, higher levels of care — require prior auth. Manual tracking creates claim holds and revenue delays that compound week over week.
High Denial Rates
Behavioral health claims are denied at 2× the rate of medical claims. Without an automated denial workflow, practices write off revenue that should be recoverable.
No Visibility Into Revenue Cycle
Most practices can't see aging AR, which payers are underperforming, or where denials cluster — because their billing system doesn't surface the analytics they need.
Three Steps to a Clean Revenue Cycle
mdhub's billing software works end-to-end — from eligibility before the session starts to denial recovery after the claim goes out.
Verify
Automated insurance eligibility checks before every session — so you never bill for a lapsed plan or missed a copay.
- Real-time eligibility lookup
- Benefits breakdown by service type
- Session limits and deductible status
- EAP plan detection and tracking
- Copay and coinsurance confirmation
Code
AI-assisted CPT code suggestions from session notes — with modifier validation and behavioral health–specific coding rules built in.
- CPT code suggestions from session data
- Duration-based code validation
- Psychiatric add-on code detection
- ICD-10 pairing recommendations
- Modifier rules for concurrent services
Submit & Recover
Clean claims submitted electronically. Denials flagged automatically with suggested corrections — so nothing falls through the cracks.
- Electronic claim submission (835/837)
- ERA posting and reconciliation
- Denial reason code categorization
- Automated resubmission workflows
- Aging AR dashboard and alerts

Results That Show Up in Your Revenue
Practices across behavioral health are recovering revenue and cutting billing admin with mdhub.
"We used to spend 12 hours a week chasing denials. Eric flagged and resubmitted everything automatically — our collection rate went up 18% in the first 90 days."
"The EAP billing alone was worth it. We see patients across six different EAP plans and Eric tracks session counts and billing rules for each one — something our old system couldn't touch."
"Eligibility used to be a constant fire drill — patients showing up with lapsed coverage. Sarah and Eric together mean we verify every plan before the appointment, every time."
