What we handle
Six connected functions, one accountable team.
Run by specialists who work behavioral-health benefits every day — not a general call center passing your claims between disconnected desks.
Communication with Families & Patients
Because our team works behavioral-health benefits every day, we talk directly with patients and families — and take that load off your team.
Utilization Review Management
We manage authorization and utilization-review workflows — preparation, scheduling, documentation support, deadline tracking, and coordination of peer-to-peer reviews — with coordinators who know the behavioral-health and SUD landscape.
Insurance Coding & Claims Management
Expert follow-up backed by Axis operating systems, payer intelligence, and internal quality controls — efficient processing, management, and collection with quality checks built in.
Reporting
Structured client reporting with claim, authorization, collection, and payer-level visibility — reimbursement by carrier and period, ready for real decisions.
Revenue-Cycle Operations & Readiness Consulting
Workflow mapping, payer enrollment & routing, billing handoffs, reporting design, and denial controls — the operational systems behind reliable reimbursement.
Not legal advice, licensure representation, or a guarantee of Joint Commission or CARF accreditation. Coding and reimbursement outcomes vary by payer, plan, state, contract, and date of service.
How we work the claim
The details that decide whether you get paid.
Most denials in behavioral health trace back to a small detail a general biller never learned to watch. A few of the places revenue quietly leaks:
Intensive outpatient is not one code
A commercial claim runs S9480 with revenue code 0905, but chemical-dependency IOP uses H0015 with 0906 — and Medicare will not take S9480 at all. Send the wrong one and it comes back denied.
Psychotherapy is timed to the minute
90832, 90834 and 90837 differ only by session length, and 90837, the longest, is the one payers audit most. We log exact start and stop times so it holds up on review.
PHP pays once a day
Partial hospitalization bills as a per diem (TOB 131, revenue code 0912, H0035), and only one posts per day even when a patient carries two diagnoses. Built wrong, the claim denies itself.
Some claims never arrive
A clearinghouse routes on a four-digit CPID, not the five-digit payer ID everyone knows. One wrong digit and the claim goes nowhere — we confirm it cleared within 72 hours and follow up inside two weeks, not the 30 to 60 days most billers wait.
Small things, each one — multiplied across every patient on your census. That is where we work. Explore Axis Insights →
Featured service
Appeals — all three levels, built in.
Axis integrates appeal management into the defined scope of every full-service engagement — every level handled — now powered by Parity, our behavioral-health appeals workspace.

Why it matters
Every claim we fix is care that keeps going.
Behavioral-health revenue isn't just numbers — it's whether a program can keep its doors open and its people in treatment. That's the work we protect.

The point of all of it
When billing works, treatment continues.
Every service we run — VOB, auth, claims, appeals — exists so the session in this room can happen again next week. That's the outcome we manage to.
Not sure where your revenue is leaking?
Start with a billing review.
Send a little context and we'll show you where to focus first — which claim issues are worth correcting now, and what they're likely worth. A focused diagnostic, not a sales call.
