Reviews
Remarkable Service: Melissa and her team do a remarkable job of herding cats (the insurance companies). I can’t imagine struggling with doing this on my own. They are professional, easy to work with and thorough. I can’t recommend them more highly. -Robert Johnson III, LMFT
A Valued Addition To My Practice: Melissa’s response time to help troubleshoot for both myself and my clients is unsurpassed. She is very knowledgeable about all issues related to billing and general practice regulation. She can complete in one hour billing work that was taking me an entire day. MV Medical Billing has been a valuable addition to my practice. -Laura Matefy, Ph.D.
Positive Interactions: I have been working with MV Billing for over three years now, and I have had nothing but positive experiences with them. I have a small, private practice, and they’ve helped me get applications submitted to insurance companies and regular, weekly billing. I’ve had nothing but positive interactions with them and they have always been able to answer my questions when needed. Working with them is seamless, and I would highly recommend them. -Elizabeth Rodriguez. LCSW
Worth Every Penny: Melissa has helped my solo therapy practice thrive. After working in numerous social service agencies, I knew nothing about therapy practice as a business, and they were right there to help when I began this process 5 years ago. Without them, I wouldn’t be able to focus solely on the needs of my clients and families. They track down the insurance companies, wait endless hours on hold with insurance companies, submit my billing, re-attest every year as needed, and help panel me with new insurance companies. I wouldn’t be as successful as I am without them! They are worth every penny so my focus can remain on my clients and their needs. They are responsive to my questions and needs and I couldn’t be who I am today without them! Thank you Melissa! One successful and happy private practice therapist , -Sarah Matus, LCSW
