Psychiatry Billing Services require specialized expertise because mental health billing involves unique codes, session-based claims, and frequent insurance complications. From evaluation and management (E/M) codes to psychotherapy and medication management billing, psychiatrists face significant challenges in securing timely reimbursements.
