You probably didn’t start your career as a PT, OT, or SLP because of your passion for medical billing. In fact, few (if any) therapists enjoy the nitty-gritty, technical details of compiling, submitting, and following up on claims. However, it is nice to get paid. And if you want to reap the financial rewards of your efforts—and thus continue to treat patients with the electricity on—you’ve got to submit clean claims that are backed up by strong, defensible documentation. 

Fortunately, there is an easier way to bill—and that’s with WebPT. Our integrated billing solutions and our best-in-class revenue cycle management services make rehab therapy billing simpler, faster, and smarter—so you can get back to your true passion: improving people’s lives.

Maximize revenue and minimize time with integrated, easy-to-use billing software designed for organizations of any size.

Integrated Billing Software

WebPT has two in-house billing solutions: Therabill and WebPT Billing. Each was created to help maximize your revenue while minimizing the time you have to spend on billing. Our software enables users to send HIPAA-compliant electronic claims to thousands of insurance companies as well as government payers for quicker reimbursement. Plus, we route all your claims for you, making your billing more efficient. 

And because these are WebPT products, you know you’re getting a top-notch, all-in-one EMR and billing solution as well as access to the industry’s best customer service, educational resources, and innovative technology. You’ll also be able to take advantage of other key features and benefits, including:

  • Claims scrubbing
  • Claim tracking
  • ERAs
  • EOB and payment posting
  • Custom reports and real-time analytics
  • Clearinghouse integration
  • Patient portal, invoicing, and billing
  • Insurance eligibility verification

Both Therabill and WebPT Billing have simple and user-friendly interfaces that can instantly improve your clinic’s billing efficiency. And because each of these products seamlessly integrates with the WebPT EMR, patient information automatically transfers from your documentation to billing sheets—which means there’s no need for double data-entry and no risk of errors as a result of transferring information. Plus, you don’t need to worry about a clearinghouse account; because WebPT partners with multiple clearinghouses, we will send claims to the clearinghouse for you—with no additional fees. 

Now, what’s the difference between Therabill and WebPT Billing? We’re glad you asked!

Therabill

Part of running an effective billing department is having the right software to fit your needs. Therabill is our billing solution for smaller clinics that have:

  • Fewer than 2,000 visits a month
  • One tax ID
  • One or two billing specialists

Therabill offers all of the key features you’ve come to expect from WebPT’s billing solutions (outlined above), without confusing the process with features you don’t need. This makes Therabill easy for small billing teams to set up and manage. But, we know you might not want to remain a small clinic for long. For clinics that have outgrown Therabill, or are just big to begin with, we have another ready-made solution that fits the bill.

WebPT Billing

For those clinics that have more robust billing requirements, we now have the perfect solution. Our recently-launched WebPT Billing is designed for larger organizations—namely, those that are:

  • Seeing more than 2,000 visits per month;
  • Using more than one tax ID;
  • Billing for Medicare Part A; or
  • Using a team of three or more dedicated billers.

In addition to all the features offered with Therabill, WebPT Billing also gives Members additional features like institutional billing, advanced reporting, scalable enterprise workflows, and concurrent case management and tasking. With WebPT Billing, you’ll also be able to easily filter and review your delayed claims, making sure you get every dollar that’s owed to you. It’s the integrated billing software ready to help you handle your billing in-house—no matter how many patients you have.  

RCM Service

Looking for a more hands-off solution? WebPT RCM service allows clinics to outsource the billing process to our expert team, so they can focus on patient care and growing their clinic. Our full-service option connects each Member with a team of dedicated billing experts—with regional specialization—who ensure claims are submitted to payers promptly and correctly. When you’re a WebPT RCM Member, you have a true billing partner in your corner. Our team handles everything from submission to collection, including claims scrubbing, billing and re-billing, and working follow-ups and denials.

In addition to being great billers, WebPT RCM specialists are great teachers. You’ll have the opportunity to discuss your billing report card and suggest ways to improve your clinic’s billing processes. You’ll also have real-time access to daily, weekly, and monthly reports, so you’ll know exactly what’s happening with your claims at every stage—talk about total transparency!

Hybrid RCM Service

If you prefer to keep some of your billing in-house, but offload the more cumbersome aspects, we also offer a hybrid RCM service, RevEquip. With RevEquip, you can keep control of most aspects of the RCM process, like credentialing, insurance verification and authorization, and A/R management, while outsourcing tasks like claims scrubbing, paper bill submission, and payment EDI processes to our expert billing team. It’s a perfect solution for those who want the best of both billing worlds! 

Clinics can’t afford to be inefficient in their billing operations—which is why we’ve created integrated solutions designed to make it easy for clinicians to manage their billing process from start to finish.
