Built for Psychiatric-Mental Health Nurse Practitioners

Prescribe + Therapy = Dual Codes, One Click

PMHNPs do both medication management and psychotherapy. CodeItRight.ai auto-detects your prescriber role, outputs dual codes (E/M + 90833/90836 add-on), applies telehealth modifier 95, and captures HCC opportunities you are missing.

E/M + Add-On Dual Output

PMHNP Billing Is Uniquely Painful

You prescribe AND do therapy. You bill E/M codes AND psych codes. You see patients on telehealth across state lines. No other provider juggles this many code sets.

Dual-Role Complexity

You do medication management (E/M) AND psychotherapy in the same visit. Missing the add-on code means leaving $50-104 on the table every single time. Most PMHNPs default to one or the other.

90792 vs 99205 Confusion

New patient evaluation: bill 90792 (psychiatric eval with medical services) or 99205 (comprehensive E/M)? Wrong choice costs $40-80 per intake. The answer depends on what your note documents.

E/M + Add-On Pairing Rules

90833 (16-37 min), 90836 (38-52 min), or 90838 (53+ min) — each pairs differently with E/M levels. Incorrect time documentation or wrong add-on selection triggers automatic denials.

Telehealth Across State Lines

80%+ of PMHNP visits are virtual. Modifier 95, place of service codes, and state-specific collaborative agreement requirements create a matrix of billing rules that changes by payer.

Three Steps to Accurate PMHNP Coding

1

Paste Your Session Note

Copy your combined med management + therapy note into CodeItRight.ai. The AI auto-detects your prescriber role and identifies both E/M elements and psychotherapy time.

2

Review Dual Extraction

AI extracts MDM complexity (problems, data, risk) for the E/M component AND psychotherapy duration for the add-on code. Medication changes, dosage adjustments, and therapy modalities are parsed separately.

3

Get Both Codes + HCC Opportunities

See your E/M level, the correct psychotherapy add-on (90833/90836/90838), telehealth modifier 95 if applicable, combined reimbursement, and HCC flags for psychiatric diagnoses — all on one screen.

Purpose-Built for PMHNP Billing

Every feature addresses the specific dual-role coding challenges PMHNPs face daily.

Provider Role Detection

Auto-detects your prescriber status from the note. Routes to the correct code path — E/M + add-on for dual visits, standalone psych codes when appropriate.

Dual-Code Output

E/M level (99213-99215) plus psychotherapy add-on (90833/90836/90838) displayed together with combined reimbursement. Never miss the add-on revenue again.

90792 Auto-Selection

For initial evaluations, AI detects medical exam elements and recommends 90792 (prescriber eval) over 99205 when your documentation supports it.

Telehealth Modifier 95

Select telehealth and get automatic modifier 95 application to both E/M and add-on codes. Facility vs non-facility rates calculated correctly.

Medication Management Extraction

AI identifies new prescriptions, dosage changes, drug interactions, and prior auth needs — ensuring your E/M level reflects true pharmacologic complexity.

Psychiatric HCC Capture

MDD = HCC 59, Bipolar = HCC 57, Schizophrenia = HCC 54. Flags risk adjustment opportunities most PMHNPs miss — significant RAF impact on Medicare Advantage patients.

The Real Cost of Missing Dual Codes

$104
Lost per visit when add-on code is missed
$520/day
5 dual-eligible visits per day without add-ons
$130K/yr
Annual revenue left on the table

PMHNPs typically see 15-20 patients per day. When you do both medication management and therapy in one visit but only bill the E/M code, you lose the psychotherapy add-on reimbursement. At 5 applicable visits per day, that is $104 x 5 = $520/day — or over $130,000 per year in missed revenue.

Common Questions from PMHNPs

Should I bill 90792 or 99205 for new patient evaluations?
PMHNPs who are prescribers should typically bill 90792 (psychiatric diagnostic evaluation with medical services) for initial evaluations that include medication assessment. Use 99205 only when performing a pure E/M visit without psychiatric evaluation elements. CodeItRight.ai auto-detects which code fits your documentation.
How does dual billing work for med management + therapy visits?
When your note documents both medication management (E/M service) and psychotherapy in the same visit, you bill the E/M code (99213-99215) plus the appropriate add-on: 90833 for 16-37 minutes of therapy, 90836 for 38-52 minutes, or 90838 for 53+ minutes. CodeItRight.ai outputs both codes with combined reimbursement.
Does it handle state-specific collaborative agreement requirements?
Yes. CodeItRight.ai flags when your billing may be affected by collaborative practice agreement requirements. In restricted-practice states, certain codes may require physician oversight documentation. The system alerts you based on your state selection.
How does telehealth modifier 95 apply to my PMHNP visits?
Select telehealth as your place of service and CodeItRight.ai automatically applies modifier 95 to both your E/M code and psychotherapy add-on. It checks facility vs non-facility rates and flags payer-specific telehealth rules affecting PMHNPs.
Is my patient note stored or used for AI training?
No. Your clinical note is processed in-memory by AI and immediately discarded. It is never saved to any database, never logged, and never used for training. Only anonymous coding parameters are stored. Zero PHI retention.
