Texas pediatric billing

Pediatric therapy billing in Texas isn’t generic medical billing

Between Texas Medicaid fee-for-service, STAR and STAR Kids managed care organizations, CHIP, and a long list of commercial payers, pediatric PT, OT, and speech practices are working against a patchwork of authorization rules, re-auth windows, and timely-filing deadlines that generic billing companies weren’t built to track. One missed re-authorization or one denied claim isn’t just an error — it’s care your practice delivered for free.

What’s included

Everything a Texas pediatric therapy practice needs billed

Credentialing & payer enrollment

CAQH setup and upkeep, Medicaid MCO panel applications, and commercial payer enrollment for every provider and every location, tracked through to approval.

Eligibility & benefits verification

Real-time coverage checks before each visit — copays, session limits, and plan-specific requirements confirmed so nothing gets delivered uncovered.

Prior authorization tracking

Authorization windows and re-auth deadlines monitored by payer, with documentation submitted ahead of expiration and units-remaining flagged in advance.

Claims & charge entry

Accurate, same-day charge capture with correct CPT, modifier, and unit rules applied for PT, OT, and speech billing codes.

Denial management & appeals

Every denial triaged, corrected, and appealed with supporting documentation — then tracked back to a root cause so it stops recurring.

Reporting & visibility

Clear revenue cycle reporting — claims out, claims paid, days in A/R, and denial trends — so you always know where the practice actually stands.
