Experience Behind The Service

Professional Billing, Outpatient Revenue Cycle, And Owner Level Operations.

Updated October 25, 2026

Our founder’s background includes professional billing and collections at OHSU, nationwide outpatient practice support at Clinicient, revenue cycle leadership for a multi-provider physiatry group, and finance leadership during a dental group’s expansion from two to six clinics. Behavioral health is still our deepest specialty.

A claim can fail long before it reaches the payer. Nobody checked coverage, the note doesn’t support the code, or the provider isn’t enrolled at that payer yet. Or the payer pays it and the payment posts to the wrong line.

You work directly with people who know how each of those steps affects the next. We work in the systems you already use and put the scope, price, who does what and the limits in writing before we start.

How Buying Works

From Price To First Work

Here is what happens after you choose a package.

  • You see your rate before you pay.
  • Within two business days after you pay, we send a link to sign your agreements in the Command Suite, and your onboarding packet follows.
  • You upload your documents once, and medical billing starts on the date in your signed Order Form, once onboarding is complete.
  • Track every piece in the Command Suite and hear back on questions within one business day.
  • Meet with us when it helps, up to twice a month. Everything we set up stays in accounts you own.

Revenue Visibility

Know Where Every Claim Stands.

Your denial rate, A/R aging and payer mix sit in one place, so the report leadership reads matches what’s happening. When billing turns up a problem that started upstream, like a plan entered on a patient’s account with no effective date, our revenue cycle management work traces it.

Ask Practice Concierge

What A Clean Claim Requires

A clean claim is the result of four things going right before it leaves your office.

Eligibility Before The Visit

Coverage, plan, and any carve-out should be verified before the appointment, by your front desk or by us when it’s in your written scope. Checking after the visit turns a routine correction into a write-off risk.

Charge Entry Against The Fee Schedule

Charges are entered against your contracted rates before each claim goes out.

Remittance Posted To The Right Line

Payments and adjustments post to the service line they belong to. Posting at the claim level hides which code is being paid short.

Follow Up On Unpaid Claims

Old claims are grouped by why they're old, not by how old they are.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Which Specialties Do You Bill For?

Psychiatry, PMHNP and therapy practices are our deepest work. Our founder has also run revenue cycle work for a physiatry group, worked with outpatient rehab practices around the country and worked claims in professional billing at OHSU. Claims, denials and A/R follow the same steps in every specialty, and if yours needs coding expertise we don’t have, we tell you before we start.

Do You Replace Our EHR Or Billing System?

No. We work inside the systems you already use. When the setup is what’s causing denials, we fix the setup, and nobody has to migrate.

How Is Billing Priced?

By practice size. Ongoing Billing runs from 7% of collections for a solo provider down to 4.5% at 26 to 50 providers, with a $300 monthly minimum for a solo provider, and no setup fee. Eligibility checks and prior authorization need a separate written scope. The included work, any add-ons, the initial term and the cancellation notice are all in the written quote before you sign.

What Drives Most Denials?

Most start before anyone builds the claim. Nobody checked eligibility, the service needed an authorization nobody got, or the code doesn’t match what the note documents. We fix the cause so the next claim doesn’t fail the same way, instead of only resubmitting this one.

Do You Bill Across Multiple Payers?

Yes. We scrub, submit and follow up on claims for commercial plans, Medicare and Medicaid, and each payer’s rules go into your billing setup, from timely filing limits to the modifiers it expects. Denials get tracked by payer, code and provider, so a pattern at one payer shows up as one cause to fix.

What Counts As Collections?

The payer and patient payments we post for your providers from your start date. Your rate is a percentage of those payments, and the monthly minimum applies per provider. Claims already past 90 days and unpaid are a separate job, Billing Cleanup And A/R Recovery.

How Do I Move My Medical Billing To You?

You sign up online, and the first month’s minimum you pay is credited to your first invoice. You get an email invitation to the Command Suite, where you review and sign your Order Form and agreement, and your onboarding packet follows. You give us user access to your EHR, your clearinghouse and your payer portals. Billing starts once your agreements are signed and onboarding is complete, and your rate applies to the payments we post from your start date. Moving from another company? Read Switching Billing Companies.

How Do I Cancel Ongoing Billing?

Either of us can end the agreement with 30 days’ written notice. You owe the fees earned through the end date, and everything we set up in your accounts stays with your practice.

Every Step

  1. We check every claim before it goes out, then submit it.
  2. We bill your commercial, Medicare and Medicaid claims, whichever you bill.
  3. We review coding and modifiers on your claims.
  4. We correct and resubmit rejections.
  5. When a claim denies, we find the cause before we resubmit or appeal, so the same denial doesn’t keep coming back.
  6. Now and then a payer approves your credentialing before its contracting team finishes loading you, and early claims deny because of it. We know this lag well, work it directly with the payer, and get those claims reprocessed together instead of one by one.
  7. We post every payer and patient payment and adjustment for the providers we cover.
  8. We reconcile what was paid against what was billed, and we reconcile patient accounts.
  9. We keep each payer’s fee schedule on file, requesting any we don’t have with your permission, and check your payments against it regularly so underpayments get caught and corrected.
  10. We follow up on unpaid claims with each payer.
  11. You get a written report each month.

What’s Not Included

Ongoing Support

  • Questions are part of working with us, during setup and for as long as you’re a client. Send them in the Command Suite or by email, and we reply within one business day, usually the same day. If a question turns into new work, like a new build or a change to something we built, we send a written quote before we start.
  • Up to two meetings a month if you need them.
  • Your Command Suite workspace shows what we’re working on and anything we need from you. It stays fully open during the work, read only for 30 days after, and then it’s $99 a month if you want to keep it.
  • If something we delivered doesn’t work the way we said it would, tell us within 30 days of delivery and we fix it at no cost.
  • Everything we set up is yours. The accounts, the documents and what we build stay with your practice.
  • Either of us can end the agreement with 30 days’ written notice.
