Supervised clinicians need certainty before a payer rule turns scheduled care into unpaid work.
Keeping appointments available protects patients, while unsupported billing guidance can leave small practices carrying the cost.
Who you’d be doing this for
“My associates have patients booked all week, and they keep asking if those visits will actually get paid.”
Yash Kumar · Group Practice Owner
She runs a small outpatient therapy practice with provisionally licensed clinicians whose sessions depend on reliable insurance billing.
What is at stake
Affected Michigan practices are receiving inconsistent payment outcomes for supervised-clinician sessions. You must weigh continuity of care against guidance that could commit providers to unrecoverable billing exposure.
Why it isn’t already fixed
Every obvious fix costs something else. That’s the part you’d have to decide.
- care continuity vs. unrecoverable payment exposure
- fast provider guidance vs. payer-rule certainty
- consistent Zendesk answers vs. case-specific judgment
- claim submission speed vs. documentation support
