Occupational Therapy Billing Services
Let ANR Billing’s specialized team maximize your collections, minimize denials, and free your time to focus on patients.
Get Started TodayAt ANR Billing, we provide full-service occupational therapy billing solutions for independent therapists, pediatric and geriatric OT clinics, school-based therapy programs, and multidisciplinary rehab facilities.
We combine deep domain knowledge with hands-on support to help you reduce claim denials by up to 65%, increase collections by 20 to 30%, and accelerate payment turnaround to 10 to 15 days.
Common pitfalls in occupational therapy billing include incorrect use of CPT codes, insufficient progress notes, lack of medical necessity, and denied authorizations — all of which can cost your practice thousands.
Our experts handle eligibility verification, documentation, submissions, and appeals with precision, resulting in 98% clean claim rates and over 30 hours of admin time saved per month.
Certified coders handle the full OT code set, from CPT 97165-97168 evaluations to 97530, 97535, 97110, 97140, and 97533 sensory integration. Paired with the right ICD-10 diagnosis (F, M, G, and Z codes) so every claim demonstrates medical necessity in the language payers require.
Daily EDI submission to Medicare, Medicaid, commercial payers, workers' comp, and auto carriers. Every claim runs through a pre-submission scrub that catches missing modifiers, untimed unit errors, and 8-minute rule violations before they leave our system. Result: 98 percent clean claim rate.
ERAs and EOBs posted daily, every line reconciled against your contracted fee schedule. Underpayments flagged and appealed automatically. Patient responsibility routed to your statement workflow within 48 hours of adjudication. No mystery write-offs quietly eating your revenue.
We work the patterns OT practices actually face: CO-50 medical necessity, CO-151 therapy threshold, CO-197 missing prior auth, CO-16 invalid information, plus payer-specific edits around CO and KX modifiers. Every appeal filed with the documentation the payer requires.
Benefits verified before the first session, therapy visit limits confirmed, annual threshold balance checked. Prior authorizations pulled and tracked for Medicaid early intervention, school-based services, and commercial payer utilization review. Renewals submitted before sessions get denied.
Most OT denials trace back to undertimed sessions and improperly counted treatment minutes. Our billers audit every claim against the 8-minute rule before submission — calculating total timed minutes across CPT 97110, 97140, 97530, and 97535 to ensure every billable unit is captured and every untimed code is properly separated. No more lost units. No more "lack of medical necessity" denials triggered by documentation that doesn't match billed time.
Medicare's 15% payment reduction on services delivered in part by an OT assistant has quietly cost practices thousands in 2025 and 2026. Our claim workflows automatically apply the CO modifier where required, separate COTA-delivered minutes from OT-delivered minutes, and protect your full reimbursement on directly delivered services. Most billing companies still get this wrong, we built our process around it.
The Medicare therapy threshold trips up more OT practices than any other regulatory rule. Our team tracks every patient's annual therapy spend across PT, OT, and SLP combined, applies the KX modifier with proper documentation of medical necessity above threshold, and flags accounts approaching the medical review threshold before denials hit. You stay compliant. You stay paid.
Pediatric OT lives in CPT 97165-97168 evaluations, 97533 sensory integration, and a maze of state-specific Medicaid early intervention rules. Geriatric OT lives in Medicare Part B compliance, plan of care recertification, and home health PDGM episodes. School-based OT lives in IEP documentation, ESY billing, and Medicaid school-based services rules that change state by state. Our team is organized by subspecialty — your account is staffed by billers who actually work your subtype every day.
You shouldn't need to call your billing company to find out what's happening to your money. Our reporting dashboard shows real-time clean claim rate, days in AR, denial rate by payer, therapy threshold tracking per patient, CPT code utilization trends, and recovered revenue from appeals — refreshed daily, accessible from any device. Decisions based on data, not guesswork or quarterly check-ins.
