Understanding ABA Billing Services: What ABA Companies Should Know

What Are ABA Billing Services?
ABA billing services typically cover several stages of the revenue cycle. These can include insurance benefit verification, eligibility checks, prior authorization tracking, claim preparation, claim submission, payment posting, denial management, and accounts receivable follow-up.

The services provided, rendering provider, authorization, service dates, units, and other claim information need to be consistent. When these details do not match payer requirements, claims may be delayed or denied.

Credentialing is another important part of operating an ABA practice. An ABA company may work with BCBAs, BCaBAs, RBTs, and other professionals, depending on its service model and state requirements.
