This is the 9th edition of this book, updated as of November 2022. Whether you’ve been thinking about accepting insurance, you’re working with a few plans, or would rather sell your soul than join an insurance network, this is a must-have reference. Even if you’re just giving clients an invoice to submit to their health plan, you should be informed, as your treatment and even your notes may be reviewed by a health plan. This new ninth edition has been updated to include how to code, bill, and document telehealth sessions, and the legalities of doing telehealth sessions when the client is out of state. It discusses waiving your office, and whether health plans support it. This easy-to-read guide will also teach you what EVERY therapist needs to know about insurance, and serves as your essential reference, answering all your questions about working with employee assistance and traditional insurance plans. Topics include: * How to join plans — even if they’re full * Getting paid: Insider tips to avoid denials * The secret to getting more sessions approved * Is it possible to get raises? * The most common mistake therapists make that leads to denials * Will your treatment be micromanaged? * How to keep a new customer even if you’re not on their plan * Line-by-line claim form instructions * 13 important questions to ask when checking insurance, and a form to use for this * Common billing practices that actually fraud is * How to appeal successful denials, and * Is taking out insurance right for you? Using a case example, this manual takes you through every detail of working with a client’s coverage.
