Superbill Generation & Claim Submission

Q: Do we still need to review each superbill before it goes out?

Yes, a brief human review step remains built into the workflow so a staff member confirms accuracy before anything is sent.

Q: Will this work with the tools our practice already uses?

The automation is built around common spreadsheet, document, email, and accounting tools, so it can connect to the systems already in place.

Q: What happens if insurance details or codes are missing?

Incomplete records are flagged for a staff member to fill in rather than being submitted with errors.

Q: Is this suitable for a small practice with only one or two billing staff?

Yes, it is designed to reduce repetitive work for small teams handling billing alongside other responsibilities.

About This Automation

Superbill generation and claim submission requires staff to verify insurance details, assign billing codes, draft a document, and submit it through an insurer portal for every completed session.

An automated version pulls session details, assigns codes, drafts the superbill, and routes it for approval before sending it to the client and updating the ledger. Claims move from session to submission the same day with far less manual handling.

Key features:

Detects completed sessions and starts the billing workflow automatically

Assigns CPT and ICD codes based on session details

Drafts a formatted superbill ready for a quick accuracy check

Routes the draft for approval before it reaches the client

Sends the approved superbill and updates the accounting ledger together

Submits the claim to the insurer without manual portal entry
