Central Ohio Practice Management (COPM) has been in business for over 7 years and for the past couple of years our focus has been on behavioral health billing and practice management. We have found that behavioral health providers are a neglected demographic within healthcare providers. We finally got the proof we needed at the seminar. The providers were craving information on starting their own practice, credentialing, getting started, forms, software, etc...
We do medical billing as well as mental health billing and we have found that behavioral health providers must jump through more hoops to get claims paid than a doctor. Especially with the rampant use of Employee Assistance Programs/EAPs. There is more paper work, authorizations, documentation and timely issues than a doctor has to endure. Yet, they get paid less and are limited to a certain number of visits.
COPM can show you how to organize your practice so you can optimize your time. We can introduce innovative ways to schedule and manage your appointments.
We want to thank NASW for inviting us to speak to their members. It was an honor to share our experience with them.
