Multi-Payer Expertise
Navigating the Telehealth Billing Landscape
Telehealth billing depends on payer type, patient location, service modality, and coverage rules. Revix MD uses telehealth eligibility checks to confirm benefits, POS requirements, state limitations, and authorization needs before virtual visits move into billing.
We synchronize your virtual care with the latest CMS Physician Fee Schedule and legislative extensions — ensuring you capture full reimbursement regardless of payer mix or patient geography.
Reimbursement Precision
Place of Service Codes Modifier Integrity
Reimbursement rates are driven by the correct application of Place of Service codes. The wrong modifier is a primary cause of technical denials. Our coding engine applies logic based on payer type and technology modality.
POS 10
Telehealth in Patient's Home
Typically reimbursed at the higher Non-Facility rate, equivalent to an in-office visit. We default to POS 10 when documentation confirms the patient’s home as the originating site — maximizing your reimbursement on every session.
POS 02
Telehealth Other Location
Utilized when the patient is at a non-home location. We manage the specific modifiers required to align with payer-specific fee schedules and ensure no revenue is left behind due to misapplied originating-site codes.
PFS 2028
In-Person Mandate Readiness
Medicare’s in-person visit requirements for behavioral health telehealth services create billing risk when eligibility timelines are missed. Revix MD tracks patient eligibility, POS code accuracy, and behavioral health telehealth billing rules to reduce retroactive recoupments when requirements reactivate.
Reimbursement Precision
95
Audio-Video
Synchronous audio-video sessions. Standard for most commercial payers.
93
Audio-Only
Telephone sessions. Required by commercial payers and some Medicaid plans.
FQ
Medicare-Audio
The specific Medicare modifier for audio-only behavioral health services.
The Bay State Advantage
Four Pillars of 2026 Massachusetts Compliance
Interstate Compacts & PSYPACT Billing
We manage multi-state billing for providers operating under PSYPACT, the Counseling Compact, and the Social Work Compact. While these provide authority to practice, we handle the secondary step: navigating state-specific payer enrollment and tax ID mapping in the patient’s jurisdiction.
Virtual Direct Supervision
Per the CY 2026 PFS, virtual direct supervision via real-time audio-video is now a permanent standard. We ensure your group practice or residency program bills for supervised associates and residents correctly with the required modifiers reflecting “presence” via technology.
DEA Controlled Substance Compliance
Psychiatrists performing med management must navigate the DEA’s telehealth prescribing rule extensions, allowing remote prescription of controlled substances through December 31, 2026. We ensure your documentation and billing modifiers reflect compliance with ongoing federal flexibilities.
DMHT Device Integration
We provide specialized RCM support for newly finalized Digital Mental Health Treatment device codes. Whether your practice uses FDA-cleared devices for ADHD or cognitive-behavioral therapy monitoring, we ensure encounters are coded using the latest CMS-approved frameworks.
Audit-Ready Protection
Compliance-Ready Documentation at Every Touchpoint
We act as your practice’s audit shield — ensuring every telehealth encounter stands up to geographic scrutiny, audio-only audits, and MIPS performance reviews.
Documentation Standards
Audit-Proof Compliance at Every Touchpoint
Audio-Only Documentation
We ensure your notes include the mandatory 2026 requirement: documenting that the patient either declined or could not use video for the session.
Consent Management
We verify that telehealth-specific consent forms are digitally signed and timestamped within your EHR, meeting HIPAA and payer-specific audit standards.
MIPS Management
For practices exceeding MIPS low-volume thresholds, we manage telehealth-specific quality measures to optimize your payment adjustments and avoid penalties.

FAQs
Do I still need an in-person visit for Medicare telehealth in 2026?
Medicare telehealth requirements can vary by service type, location, and policy updates. Revix MD reviews documentation, POS codes, audio-only modifiers, and Medicare telehealth billing rules before claims are submitted.
Can I bill for a session if my video platform fails?
Yes, but the claim must reflect an “audio-only” encounter. For Medicare, this requires Modifier FQ; for most commercial payers, it requires Modifier 93. Your documentation must also state why the video was not used.
How do you handle billing for patients who are traveling?
We verify the patient’s location at the time of service. If you are licensed in the state where the patient is located, or if a compact applies, we ensure the claim is sent to the correct regional payer according to their local telehealth parity laws.
Does Revix MD support the new 2026 virtual supervision rules?
Absolutely. We manage the billing for residents and associates under the permanent Virtual Direct Supervision guidelines, ensuring the supervising physician’s presence via audio-video is documented according to CMS standards.
