A therapist is seeking insights on how to effectively integrate into a pediatrician's office for collaborative care, including assessments and billing processes. They want to know what additional services a therapist could provide in this setting.
I’m a therapist and have had a conversation with a pediatrician about potentially being on hand one day a week at their office. We’re brainstorming what that might look like. We were thinking assessments, screenings, and psycho-education but unsure what else may be helpful as they’ve never had a therapist on staff. I’m particularly interested as well in how billing may work in this situation, as I’ve only ever billed for one-on-one therapy hours. I’m curious for anyone who’s done something similar, what types of things would a therapist be helpful for and how would billing work? Thanks for any insight!
