Did you know that you can bill myofunctional therapy to medical insurance? The BIS has been seeing great reimbursements, and we are here to help guide you on your myofunctional therapy medical billing journey.
If you are seeing patients for myofunctional therapy, billing to the patient’s medical insurance is a great way to ensure proper compensation for you and your patients. You can bill out each time you render services for therapy!
Check out the medical billing resource area in MyAbsorb for procedure codes and proper documentation requirements.
Here are some examples of the payments the BIS has been seeing. Multiply this every time you see your patients, and that is a great way to bring in some additional income. Many offices are billing anywhere from 10 to 16 therapy sessions per myofunctional therapy patient!
