What Practice Owners Say
Running a growing psychiatry clinic as the sole owner means you wear every hat, and at some point, I realized I had become the bottleneck holding us back. Ryan and his team at AdvanceAPractice helped me open that up.
They reorganized our workflows, improved how our team communicates, and brought in smart automation and AI-driven solutions that have saved us measurable time and money. The operational visibility alone has been a game-changer.
What I appreciate most is that they understood our world, behavioral health, psychiatric services, a small team doing meaningful work. They didn’t just bring tools; they brought a real operating perspective. Our team can focus on patient care now, which is exactly what we needed.
Thank goodness for AdvanceAPractice!! I am a private practice LMFT, and over this last year I had been trying to switch over to working under my S corp status.
I struggled with the task for several months and only got more confused in the process. Between the various insurance companies I am credentialed with and not even knowing what I didn’t know, it was a scary maze.
AdvanceAPractice came in, handled it with confidence and good communication, and helpfully led me through my transition questions with patience. The fee was well worth the assistance I received. Highly recommend!

Joining Insurance Panels As A Therapist
We handle the payer applications, your CAQH/DataSpring review, EFT and ERA, and the follow-up until each payer gives a written effective date. We follow up with each payer at least every 10 business days. A denial or closed panel completes that payer.
Five payers for $2,250, or five monthly payments of $450.
See Therapist CredentialingAdding A Provider Or Changing Your Tax ID
New providers get added to the contracts your clinic already holds. Moving to a new practice or Tax ID keeps your existing panels and moves them over.
Five payers from $2,250, or five monthly payments from $450.

Send Your Onboarding Packet

See Every Step In Writing
You’ll see where each payer stands, not one average. Medical billing clients get a written report each month. It’s all in the Command Suite.
Billing problems often start upstream, in credentialing, payer setup or the EHR, so the person working your denials can fix what caused them.
Why Practices Pick Us
Plenty of companies list the same services. These three things are how we’re different, and you can check each one before you buy.
One Team Works The Denial And Builds The Tracker
You don’t need a billing company and a separate software company that have never spoken. The person working your denials and enrollments builds the tracker or report that fixes the cause.

Experience Behind The Work
Ryan Berg founded AdvanceAPractice in Portland in 2023, after more than 16 years in hospital professional billing, outpatient revenue cycle and behavioral health operations across multiple states. We work directly with owners, medical directors and their teams.
From Solo Practice To A Growing PMHNP Group
A solo PMHNP owner set out to add his first provider and found two of his own payer contracts broken, one denying every claim as out of network. He ended as a two provider group with a third onboarding.
Read The Growth StoryRenegotiating Contracted Rates That Were Years Out Of Date
A payer’s fee schedule still reflected the state the owner had practiced in years earlier. After four attempts over three months, the payer approved higher contracted rates on seven service codes at once, as an addendum effective the next month.
See How Rates Get FixedTaking Over The Entire Revenue Cycle For A Therapy Group
A multi clinician therapy group moved its whole billing operation across at once: primary and secondary claims, denial work and appeals, timely filing corrections, payment posting, and patient invoicing and collections. Provider transfers and credentialing ran alongside it across Medicaid and five commercial plans, inside the practice management and clearinghouse tools the group already used.
