Alternative Billing Solutions, LLC

Alternative Billing Solutions, LLC gives mental health providers and chiropractors across Maine one less thing to worry about. By taking over the full billing cycle, ABS lets practitioners focus on patient care instead of chasing payments, decoding insurance denials, or sitting on hold with carriers for hours. Founded in 2004 by Tara Beaudoin-Ambrose, the company has spent more than two decades building a reputation as a committed, detail-oriented billing partner for small and independent practices. ABS provides complete billing management services that cover every step between the point of care and a paid claim. That includes provider credentialing, patient insurance benefit verification, authorization tracking and renewal support, claim submission, and direct follow-up with insurance carriers when reimbursement is delayed or disputed. For any practice considering outsourcing these tasks, ABS handles the administrative weight that pulls providers away from clinical work, functioning as a true back-office extension of the practice. The company was built specifically around the needs of mental health professionals and chiropractic providers, and that specialization runs deep. Tara began her career working inside a shared chiropractic and counseling office where both types of providers struggled with the same billing burdens. That firsthand experience shaped how ABS approaches the work, with an emphasis on getting claims paid correctly the first time and pursuing every dollar the provider has earned. A client who has worked with the company since 2010 describes ABS as the best billing service they have used in twenty years of private practice. ABS serves clients throughout the state of Maine, from Fort Kent to York and Calais to Fryeburg, making geography no barrier to working together. The business is run by Tara and her partner Anthony Ambrose, who joined the company in 2007 and came on full time in 2011. That structure keeps the team accountable and responsive in a way that larger, more impersonal billing operations often cannot match. Practices of any size are welcome, whether a solo clinician just starting out or an established group looking for more reliable billing support. If your practice is spending time on insurance paperwork that could be spent with patients, Alternative Billing Solutions is worth a conversation.
