Behavioral healthcare revenue cycle

Built Inside Behavioral Healthcare.Not Outside of It.

Behavioral healthcare is one of the most complex reimbursement environments in healthcare. Our leadership has served the industry since 1998, running admissions, utilization management and revenue cycle inside behavioral healthcare organizations. We founded Centerline in 2018 to bring that experience directly to providers.

Questions

The Questions Providers Ask Us Most.

See All FAQs

We're a new facility. Can you set up our billing?
Yes. We help new behavioral healthcare facilities stand up billing operations from scratch: the workflows, the payer setup, and the documentation practices that keep claims clean from day one.
Do you consult, or take it over?
Either. We can advise your in-house team and hand off a working revenue-cycle setup, or we can run the billing ourselves, whichever fits where your facility is.
What kind of reporting do we get?
Transparent reporting on the whole revenue cycle (claim status, payer performance, denial trends and reimbursement by level of care) so leadership can see what the numbers are actually doing and decide from data, not guesswork.
