Billing for mental health visits can feel murky because the work is often cognitive, conversational, and risk-based rather than procedure- or lab-driven. This episode walks through how to think about billing mental health-related visits using medical decision making, time-based E/M billing, and a few key add-on codes.

For access to the high yield take-aways as well as the downloadable clinical references associated with this episode, visit the Episode Page. There, Free Members will find:

A practical quick-reference guide for using MDM and time-based billing in mental health-related visits, including risk factors that often support moderate complexity.
Case-based billing examples and documentation language for MDM, time-based E/M, psychotherapy add-ons, and prolonged services.

Switching antidepressants is one of the most common—and often most confusing—tasks in primary care and outpatient mental health management. In this episode, we’ll walk through a clear, practical framework for how to approach antidepressant switches with confidence.
