Each year there are significant coding updates that affect Behavioral Health billing, coding, and reimbursement. These changes can have a significant impact on behavioral health providers and organizations of all sizes. Diagnosis code changes take effect on October 1st annually and CPT code changes take effect on January 1st of each year. It is imperative that your organization understand what the behavioral health coding changes entail, the reimbursement impact, and the new clinical documentation requirements associated with these codes in 2025. Understanding the many updates is critical to reporting behavioral health services compliantly and obtaining the proper reimbursement for your organization’s services. This webinar will provide you with the latest information needed to successfully navigate Telehealth regulatory compliance in 2025, discuss strategies for maximizing reimbursement, unpack the many clinical documentation requirements, deconstruct Behavioral Health case studies, share best practice tips, and so much more.
Webinar Objectives
Navigating the complexities of Behavioral Health Telehealth coding, billing, reimbursement, and regulatory compliance can be tedious and overwhelming. The current method for reimbursing Behavioral Health Providers operates as a pay-and-chase model, meaning you get paid for services under the presumption that the Provider represented the services they rendered accurately and in accordance with various regulatory requirements. When Behavioral Health Providers bill for services, they are reimbursed on a good-faith basis with the expectation that clinical documentation supports the services reported. This pay-and-chase model creates a false sense of security for Behavioral Health Providers who mistakenly assume because they got paid for something means they are doing everything compliantly. This assumption could not be further from the truth. To make matters worse, many health insurance payers routinely implement policy changes to their Behavioral Health Telehealth service lines regarding coverage and reimbursement policies.
