Operators, not order-takers
Led by people who have operated ABA companies themselves, so we fix the cause of a denial, not just the claim.
Payer-savvy from day one
Payer contracting and rate negotiation, plus credentialing for new and promoted clinicians until each one is approved.
No claim left behind
We follow up until every claim gets a response, resolve rejections and appeal non-clinical denials.
One team, fully accountable
Contract to collection, with one team accountable for every claim. Billing never hinges on one employee.
“Because I’ve worked in the business so long, and I’ve worked with payers, worked on the RCM side, I know when people know what they’re talking about and when they don’t. And the expertise that the [Boost] team clearly had was very visible.”

ABA revenue cycle management services: frequently asked questions
What do ABA billing services include?
Boost's ABA billing services cover the full revenue cycle: payer contracting, credentialing, authorization requests, claim submission, rejection resolution, payer follow-up, non-clinical denial appeals, corrected and secondary claims, payment posting, and family statements with follow-up. One team is accountable from contract to collection.
What does an ABA billing company do?
An ABA billing company runs the revenue cycle for a practice: contracting with payers, credentialing clinicians, securing authorizations, submitting and correcting claims, following up until payers respond, appealing denials and posting payments. Boost also sends family statements, all on the Boost platform.
What is behavioral health revenue cycle management?
Behavioral health revenue cycle management covers every step between delivering a session and getting paid for it: payer contracts, credentialing, authorizations, claims, payer follow-up, denials and payment posting. Done well, it gets claims right the first time and keeps cash flow steady without adding work for clinicians.
Should an ABA practice outsource billing?
Keeping billing in-house works when you have experienced billers, low turnover and time to chase every payer. Outsourcing makes sense when denials are climbing, A/R is aging or billing depends on one person. Boost's RCM services give you a full team, so billing never hinges on a single employee.
How are ABA billing services priced?
Boost's ABA billing services are priced as a percentage of claims, so Boost’s success is tied to yours and your cost tracks the revenue the service brings in.
Do I need the Boost platform to use Boost’s ABA billing services?
Yes. Boost’s revenue cycle management services run on the Boost Practice Intelligence Platform, so every booking is checked against credentials, authorizations and payer rules at scheduling and again before billing. That is how problems are stopped before a claim exists.
Do you offer ABA billing and credentialing services together?
Yes. Boost initiates payer contracts, submits applications and provider rosters, and delivers the executed contract. The team also credentials new and promoted clinicians and follows up with payers until each one is approved, alongside claims, follow-up, denial appeals and payment posting.
What clean claim rate should an ABA practice expect?
Results depend on payer mix and how clean intake, authorizations and credentialing are. Across all Boost clients, the clean claim rate averaged 99.4% and payor denials averaged under 2% in Q1 2026.
