Effective date: October 6, 2026

These terms of service explain the rules for using mcmsouth.com, which MCM South Medical Billing Service, LLC operates. By using the site, you agree to them. If you do not agree, please do not use the site. We wrote them in plain English on purpose.

1. Who we are and what this site is

Our terms of service start with the basics: MCM South Medical Billing Service, LLC was founded in 2010 and bills exclusively for mental and behavioral health practices, serving psychotherapists and psychiatrists. This site shares general information about billing, credentialing, and payer rules, and explains our services.

2. Educational information only

Site content is general education about medical billing. It is not legal, medical, clinical, tax, or financial advice. Payer and state rules vary and change. Confirm anything with the payer, your state agency, and your own attorney, CPA, or compliance officer before you act on it.

3. No client relationship until a signed agreement

Under these terms of service, reading this site, sending an inquiry, or asking for a quote does not make you a client. A client relationship begins only when you and MCM South both sign a written services agreement.

4. Do not submit patient information

Do not put protected health information (PHI) in contact forms, quote requests, comments, or ordinary email. The HIPAA Compliance Statement explains how we handle PHI for clients, and the Privacy Policy explains what this site collects. See the HHS HIPAA overview.

5. Shared responsibility

Compliance with HIPAA and payer rules is shared. Your practice decides who may access PHI, trains its staff, and manages its own risk. Your EHR or practice-management vendor secures its own platform. We use PHI only to perform the billing services you request. We do not take over your practice’s compliance duties, and this site does not make your practice compliant.

6. Acceptable use

Under these terms of service, you agree not to use the site to break the law, try to gain unauthorized access, introduce malware, scrape or copy it by automated means without our written permission, or submit false information or someone else’s information without authority.

7. Accuracy and changes to these terms of service

We work to keep content accurate and show check dates where we cite sources. We do not guarantee that it is complete or current. We may change or remove content, services, and these terms at any time. The date at the top shows the latest version.

8. Affiliate disclosure

SimplePractice is the only company with which MCM South has an affiliate relationship. We may receive compensation if you sign up through a SimplePractice link on this site. These links are marked as sponsored. Details and current offers are on our SimplePractice page, and our other relationships are explained on the Affiliates page. We do not otherwise endorse or partner with the companies we mention.

9. Third-party links

We link to government agencies, payers, and vendors so you can check sources. We do not control those sites and are not responsible for their content or privacy practices.

10. Our content

The text, design, and logos on this site belong to MCM South or its licensors. You may quote short excerpts with a link back to the page. Please ask before republishing larger portions or using our name or logo.

11. Disclaimers and limits of liability

The site and its content are provided “as is” and “as available,” without warranties of any kind, to the fullest extent the law allows. To the fullest extent the law allows, MCM South is not liable for indirect, incidental, or consequential damages arising from your use of the site or reliance on its content. Nothing in these terms of service limits liability that the law does not allow to be limited. Services we provide to clients are governed by the written services agreement, not these terms.

12. Governing law and contact

Georgia law governs these terms of service, without regard to conflict-of-law rules. Questions about them go through our contact page. To see how we help practices, read about our services, see who we serve, browse the resources and billing FAQ, or schedule a free consultation.
