What are preventable denials actually costing your practice?

Four sliders, sixty seconds. Based on the same math hospitals use to size their patient access departments — built for solo psychiatric practices and PMHNPs.

What insurance actually pays you per visit, on average. 90837 allowed amounts typically run $120–$180 depending on payer and state.
Not sure? Behavioral health claims are denied roughly 2x as often as medical — around 30% industry-wide. Well-run solo practices still see 12–20%.
Be honest — the ones you chase before the timely-filing clock runs out. For most solo providers this is the number nobody wants to say out loud.
Your estimated preventable write-off
$0
per year — revenue lost to denials that could have been caught before the visit
$0
enters denial limbo each year (billed → denied)
$0
of preventable denials never appealed — aging toward permanent write-off
$0
unpaid rework cost at $25–30 per denied claim (MGMA) — for a solo practice, that labor is yours
$0
recoverable through appeals — 82% of appealed MH denials get overturned

This estimate took 60 seconds. Your real number takes 20 minutes.
In a working session we map this against your actual payer mix and remits — carve-outs, auth counters, the 48-hour verification protocol. You leave with your true preventable write-off number either way. No pitch required to keep it.

“In a hospital, patient access is a department. In your practice, it’s 9 PM and a phone tree. I build the department you can’t afford to hire.”

Estimates only — your remits are the ground truth. Assumptions: 48 working weeks/year; ~75% of behavioral health denials are administrative (eligibility, carve-outs, authorization, documentation) per denial reason-code analyses; 82% of appealed mental health denials overturned; $25–30 rework cost per denied claim (MGMA).
