Record the requested testing services, authorized dates and units. Check any payer specific limits before the work proceeds.
(518) 299 9775Psychology practices may combine therapy, assessment, testing administration and interpretation. We help keep authorization, provider roles and documented units connected across the testing episode.

Record the requested testing services, authorized dates and units. Check any payer specific limits before the work proceeds.
Separate the provider’s evaluation work from testing administration and scoring. Route role or documentation gaps for clarification.
Compare recorded time and services across the episode with the submitted units. Keep payer requests for records attached to the relevant claim.
