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.

Read The Full Review

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.

April Dvorak, PMHNP-BCOwner and Medical Director

AdvanceAPractice has provided a great benefit to my growing practice. They clearly explained the confusing insurance billing process and helped me create a plan to expand my business.

John Benson, PMHNP-BCOwner, BBH Psychiatric Services

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.

Read The Full Review

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.

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!

Kate B., LMFTPrivate Practice Owner

Ryan’s unique ability to have executive and business-like vision as well as possess the details of daily operations has been and continues to be crucial in delivering, serving, and supporting our patients, employees, and contractors.

Launch

Opening Your First Practice

$6,000

Five payers included. Add more at checkout. Pay in full, or $1,500 a month for four months.

This is the only package that builds your practice with you: your insurance contracts, your EHR and schedule, and your medical billing and coding, all set up and tested before you see your first insured patient.

Everything Included

For a licensed provider opening a first practice, including while employed or working through Headway, Alma, Grow or Rula.

  • Five commercial payers, each followed through to a written decision. Approved payers are checked for system loading and directory accuracy.
  • Help choosing an EHR around your goals and budget, then setup or tailored guidance in the system you own.
  • Visit types and scheduling built around your preferences, with CPT codes, modifiers and place of service tested from appointment through claim.
  • Insurance billed charges and self pay fees set up with you. Contracted payer rates loaded where supported, or supplied for you to load.
  • Guidance on business records, payer portals, electronic payment and remittance enrollment, plus tools to verify patient benefits.
  • Patient payment and portal setup, or guidance if you prefer, with accurate financial reporting and help running it yourself.

Most questions answered within one business day, and up to two meetings a month if you need them

Credentialing

Insurance Credentialing

$2,000 for two payers for a group practice

One clinician in their own name: $1,200 for two payers.

We prepare, submit and follow up on your application with each insurance company you choose until it sends its decision in writing.

Everything Included

For one clinician in your own name, your group under its own Tax ID, or a provider joining contracts your clinic already holds.

Not open yet, or still employed and starting your own practice? First Practice Launch sets up your payers, EHR, scheduling and medical billing together.

Leaving Rula, Headway, Grow or Alma? See what happens to your contracts and clients.

  • Payer requests answered and follow up at least every 10 business days until a written decision.

Medical Billing

Getting Claims Paid

7% of collections

$300 monthly minimum per provider for a solo practice. For 26 to 50 providers: 4.5% with a $175 monthly minimum per provider. No setup fee.

We manage the work between sending a claim and getting it paid, inside the EHR you already use.

Everything Included

We check coding and modifiers, correct rejections, work denials and appeals, and follow unpaid claims through to the payer’s response. Commercial, Medicare and Medicaid claims are included within your scope.

  • Every claim reviewed for coding and modifiers before submission, with rejections corrected and resubmitted.
  • Denials investigated, corrected or appealed. When a contract loading issue affects several claims, we work the cause with the payer.
  • Payer and patient payments and adjustments posted, with balances reconciled.
  • Payments checked against your contracted fee schedules so underpayments can be caught and corrected.
  • Unpaid claims followed up with each payer, plus a written report each month.

Operations

Running The Business Side With You

From $3,500 a month

Scope and price in writing before anything starts.

For an owner holding medical billing, credentialing, scheduling and the EHR together alone.

Everything Included

We keep it all moving inside your systems, so it stops depending on you.

  • A review of your systems, workflows and priorities through onboarding, with responsibilities agreed in writing.
  • Billing, credentialing and day to day follow through coordinated within your scope, so unresolved work has an owner.
  • Advice on EHR choices and changes, shaped around your billing, reports, integrations and team.
  • Gaps in workflows and staff training identified, with practical improvements planned around the way your practice works.
  • Growth planned with you: new providers and specialties, moving from solo to group, and group contracts with your payers.

  • The tracker or app your team works from, plus reminders, alerts, handoffs, reports and one dashboard.
  • Connections through APIs, approved connectors or secure exports, using the labels and steps your team already knows.

See The Full Background

Credentialing And Growth

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.

Contract Rates

Renegotiating Contracted Rates That Were Years Out Of Date

A payer’s fee schedule still reflected the state the owner had left years earlier. After four attempts over three months, the payer raised contracted rates on seven service codes at once.

Revenue Cycle

Taking Over The Entire Revenue Cycle For A Therapy Group

A multi clinician therapy group moved its whole billing operation to us at once, from claims and appeals to payment posting and patient collections, while we handled provider transfers and credentialing across Medicaid and five commercial plans.

Experience Behind The Work

I’m Ryan Berg, founder of AdvanceAPractice. I’ve run the business side of practices for more than 16 years. I worked claims at OHSU, managed finance for a dental group as it grew from two clinics to six, and ran operations at ValueCore Mental Health, where I hired and led more than 30 clinicians and staff while revenue grew from $2 million to $6 million. Today I work directly with owners on everything behind the visit: billing, payer contracts, hiring, systems and the next location.
