Bookkeeping for Behavioral Health & Therapy Practices

Billed, allowed, paid, and written off are four different numbers per session.

Remote bookkeeping — monthly close, cleanup, and books ready for your CPA.

A therapy practice bills one rate, the payer allows another, the client owes a portion of that, and the difference is a contractual adjustment rather than a loss. Practices that record only the deposit see revenue that bounces around for no visible reason and have no way to tell which payers are worth staying paneled with. Sliding-scale and private-pay work adds a second rate structure on top of the first.

We work with the financial records only. We do not access, process, or store patient health information.

Four numbers per session

Billed, allowed, paid, and adjusted, each recorded.

Denials tracked

Receivables aged by payer with resubmissions followed.

Sliding scale as discount

Recorded as the discount it is, never as bad debt.

Records only

We work with financial records and never patient health information.

What we handle

  • Revenue recorded at expected reimbursement with contractual adjustments separated
  • Insurance receivables aged by payer, with denials and resubmissions tracked
  • Client responsibility, copays, and sliding-scale adjustments recorded distinctly
  • Private-pay and paneled revenue reported separately so the mix is visible
  • Associate clinician compensation recorded against the sessions it relates to

Common problems we fix

  • Only deposits recorded, so nothing is visible until money arrives or does not
  • Write-offs and contractual adjustments treated identically, hiding real collection rates
  • Sliding-scale discounts booked as bad debt rather than as the discount they are
  • Personal and practice spending on one account, common in solo practices

We keep the books. You run the business.

Categorization, reconciliation, month-end close, and clean financial statements — with nothing left for you to chase.

Behavioral Health & Therapy Practices — Frequently Asked Questions

Do you understand behavioral health and therapy practices specifically?

+
Yes — that is the point of setting the books up by industry. A therapy practice bills one rate, the payer allows another, the client owes a portion of that, and the difference is a contractual adjustment rather than a loss. Practices that record only the deposit see revenue that bounces around for no visible reason and have no way to tell which payers are worth staying paneled with. Sliding-scale and private-pay work adds a second rate structure on top of the first.

Do you work in my existing accounting file?

+
Yes. We work inside your file so you keep ownership and full visibility. If you do not have one set up yet, we build it around your industry from the start.

Can you help if I am months behind?

+
That is our specialty. Cleanup is quoted at a fixed price after a short no-obligation review, so you know the cost before any work begins.
