Psychiatry Billing Cash Flow

Optum Behavioral and Magellan put your 90792 and 90833 claims through documentation-heavy review that stretches payment to 30 to 90 days.

Built for a psychiatry panel

A full panel of medication-management claims, funded at once.

Psychiatrists bill a high volume of recurring evaluation, psychotherapy add-on, and pharmacologic-management codes, so a lot of cash sits in adjudication at any moment. Copay purchases the whole eligible batch and pays the next business day.

Recurring revenue

Your panel bills the same codes every month.

Medication management is recurring by design, so the same 90833 and 90863 claims come back month after month. Copay purchases each month's eligible claims at the same next-business-day terms, turning a predictable panel into predictable capital.

Common questions

Psychiatry billing, answered.

No. Copay is not a loan, not factoring, and not a merchant cash advance. Copay purchases your eligible psychiatry claims outright and deposits funds the next business day, with no debt and no repayment schedule.

Psychiatry runs heavily through behavioral health carve-outs, so Copay purchases eligible claims billed to Optum Behavioral, Magellan, Carelon, Aetna, and Cigna, as well as Medicare and Medicaid managed care plans.

Psychiatrists carry large panels of recurring medication-management visits, so a lot of small claims sit in adjudication at once. Copay purchases your eligible claims in bulk and funds them the next business day, so the whole panel turns into capital instead of waiting weeks per claim.

Copay prices each claim on its expected net reimbursement, so the documentation-heavy review that slows a 90792 or 90833 with your payer is exactly the delay Copay removes. Nothing changes about how your team documents or submits.

Non-recourse means a denied eligible claim is Copay's loss, not yours. If an eligible purchased psychiatry claim is denied or downcoded after the fact, Copay absorbs the loss with no clawbacks against your practice.
