In a busy behavioral health practice, the focus is rightly on patient care—but behind the scenes, something silent and costly may be draining your revenue: aging Accounts Receivable (AR).
If you’re not actively monitoring and following up on unpaid claims, you’re leaving money on the table—sometimes tens of thousands of dollars. At CuraWise Billing Solutions, we see it all the time.
Let’s explore why untouched AR is so damaging—and how to fix it before it hurts your practice.
Accounts Receivable (AR) refers to money owed to your practice for services you’ve already provided and billed. Payers typically have 30–45 days to process and pay claims.
But here’s the problem:
Untouched AR leads to:
🔎 Even small balances add up. 20 unpaid claims at $150 each? That’s $3,000 quietly sitting in limbo.
Behavioral and mental health practices face unique challenges:
That’s where the CuraWise AR Recovery Process makes the difference.
At CuraWise, we don’t just submit claims—we chase them down until they’re paid or appealed. Here’s our proactive approach to AR:
We track claims by age bucket (30/60/90/120+) and prioritize the oldest and highest-value items.
We directly call or portal-check claims stuck in limbo. If they’re denied, we act fast to correct and resubmit.
We identify recurring payer issues—like modifier errors or time-based code denials—and fix the root cause.
You’ll get a monthly snapshot of your AR health with transparent metrics and recovery performance.
Example: One solo psychiatry practice came to us with over $42,000 in AR over 90 days old. Within 60 days, we had recovered 65% of it—money they had nearly written off.
If you’re unsure what’s sitting in your aging report—or don’t have one—it’s time to take control.
