Why Practices Switch

A mental health billing company that only does your specialty

One specialty, the whole cycle

Mental and behavioral health billing is all we do — verification through appeal — since 2010. No generalist shop splitting its attention across twenty specialties.

Therapists and psychiatrists, both

Psychotherapy codes, E/M visits with add-on codes, EAP sessions — we bill what solo practices and groups actually see, and we know what changes when you add providers.

A founder who’s done the work

Michael Williams spent seven years consulting for SimplePractice, working with the EHR team and the clearinghouse on real, ANSI-compliant claims — experience, not outsourced guesswork.

What We Handle

Eight services. One job: getting your claims paid.

Eight mental health billing services — pick one, or watch it walk through all eight.

Who’s Behind the Work

Billing knowledge from inside the system

“I spent seven years consulting for SimplePractice, working with their EHR team and the clearinghouse to turn provider needs into working, ANSI-compliant claims. That’s the experience this company runs on.”

Michael Williams founded the mental health billing company MCM South Medical Billing Service, LLC in 2010 in Georgia and Massachusetts — mental and behavioral health billing for solo and medium-size practices, and nothing else.
