Hello,

Our mental health/occupational therapy clinic in Hutchinson is looking to possibly add a speech and language pathologist.  Anyone know a clinic I might be able to touch base with to get a sense of what their common billing and diagnosis codes are?  I have done research online, but a lot of it is greek to me!  Thanks!

Is anyone in the PRO community experiencing intermittent functionality this morning? My system is S L O W, it stops, and not operating 100%.

Does anyone know what POS I would use to bill a 90846 (family session w/o patient) when the patient herself is in an inpatient facility? 

The parents met with our provider to discuss plans for when the patient is discharged.   I billed it out as we normally would under POS 11, but BCBS denied saying we needed to use an inpatient POS, but we are an outpatient only clinic. 

Thanks 

Is anyone seeing more and more psych testing authorizations being denied by BCBS?  

This started yesterday and is an intermittent issue since.  I was able to finally log in around noon yesterday after 2+ hours of trying various solutions.  Was able to log in this morning for about 2.5 hours and now I've been kicked off again with the message the server cannot be found.  This happens across all three browsers I use, firefox, chrome, and edge as well as a laptop on wifi and a hardwired desktop computer.  I suspect it has something to do with the security certificate Procentive is using being out of date or not secure.  

Our clinic has been getting more clients who have worker’s compensation and with the limited experience we have we know we spend quite a bit admin time trying to obtain info of where to send claims and what to send plus it’s sometimes difficult to get payment. We have a couple questions: 

1. can you collect  money up front from the client in case WC doesn’t pay  or is there a rule in workmen’s comp about this? 

2. can you bill the insurance and not use workmen’s comp or is their a rule against this?

Does anyone had links to resources about WC billing?

Thanks in advance 

Does anyone know of a way to bill for specialized sessions such as an EMDR session or TFCBT session?
