Hello! I'm so glad you're here. I believe strongly in taking insurance in private practice. I take insurance, mainly, because I want to be able to help people who can not afford private pay rates and need good quality therapy. Also, I really dislike marketing =).
I use to have billers do all of my billing and they took 9% of every claim they filed for me. THEN, I realized they were not collecting the money I was owed from my clients. After some investigation, I was staring at a ten-year old, $12,000 back balance report! That was it!! I had to learn how to bill insurance on my own.
In this process, I took my practice all online. Now, I am fully online, traveling the world, and STILL seeing all of my clients. I’ve spent a lot of time figuring out insurance for my brick-and-mortar office and now for my all-online therapy practice. Through trial and error, I’ve successfully implemented insurance billing into my online private practice. I am 100% online & working from home or wherever I've travelled to that month. (See Picture Above: working from the Dominican Republic) I still bill 30-40 client hours per week; all insurance clients!
