Coding
Expert Coders Code Your Way to Success
Behavioral health coding requires specialized knowledge of diagnosis and procedure codes. Our experienced behavioral health coders understand the coding requirements for mental health, substance use, and behavioral health services, including:
ICD-10-CM Codes
These codes identify and report patient diagnoses and conditions. They are essential for accurately documenting mental and behavioral disorders and supporting appropriate reimbursement.
CPT Codes
CPT codes are used to report behavioral health services and procedures, including psychiatric evaluations, psychotherapy, and other professional services. For example, 90834 is used for individual psychotherapy, 45 minutes.
HCPCS Codes
HCPCS codes cover certain services and supplies not fully represented by CPT codes. Behavioral health billing may include HCPCS codes for substance use treatment, behavioral health services, and other specialized care.
DSM-5 Codes
DSM-5 diagnostic criteria help classify and document mental health conditions. These diagnoses are commonly mapped to corresponding ICD-10-CM codes to support accurate clinical documentation and billing.
HBAI Codes
Health Behavior Assessment and Intervention (HBAI) codes are used for services addressing behavioral, psychological, and emotional factors affecting physical health. Codes such as 96156 and 96158 may be used based on the service provided and payer requirements.
