Overview

Stop Leaking Revenue and Start Scaling Your Practice. You entered the field of mental health to heal, not to spend your evenings wrestling with CAQH profiles, denied claims, and confusing CPT codes. But here is the silent reality of private practice: your clinical skills don't determine if your practice survives its first two years-your billing fluency does. In The LPC and LMFT Billing Handbook, veteran clinician Warren Garton bridges the gap between clinical excellence and business survival. Whether you are a new graduate opening your first office or an established provider looking to audit-proof your documentation, this handbook provides the definitive, step-by-step roadmap to the administrative machinery of modern therapy. What's Inside: The 2024 Medicare Shift: Navigate the landmark rule change that opened Medicare Part B to LPCs and LMFTs for the first time in history. Master the Language of Claims: Deep dives into CPT codes (90791, 90837, 90847) and ICD-10 coding strategies to ensure you are paid accurately for every minute of care. The Credentialing Blueprint: A foolproof guide to CAQH ProView, payer contracts, and the negotiation tactics needed to secure higher reimbursement rates. Telehealth & Hybrid Compliance: Essential rules for Modifier 95, POS 10, and the post-PHE regulatory landscape. Claim Recovery Systems: Learn how to read EOBs/ERAs and write winning appeals that turn ""denied"" into ""deposited."" Build a Practice That Sustains Your Life Billing is not just a back-office chore; it is a core clinical competency. Financial stress erodes your presence in the room. By mastering your revenue cycle, you protect your capacity to remain curious, present, and unhurried with your clients. Stop treating your business as an afterthought. Use this handbook to build a practice that is financially stable, audit-proof, and professionally fulfilling.
