Letendre Billing & Consulting, LLC

Behavioral health providers often spend more time chasing insurance reimbursements than seeing patients. Letendre Billing & Consulting, LLC exists to change that. Based in Providence, Rhode Island, this specialized medical billing and outsourcing company manages the full revenue cycle for behavioral health practices, so providers can focus on clinical care while their claims get paid accurately and on time. The company's core service is revenue cycle management, covering eligibility verification, claim submission, payment posting, account reconciliation, denial management, and appeals, starting at 6% of collected revenue. Beyond billing, the company handles credentialing with both commercial payers, including Blue Cross, Optum, Aetna, and Cigna, and government payers such as Medicare, Medicaid, and Tricare, at flat per-provider rates. Coding assistance is available by the hour for documentation and billing code guidance. An audit and overpayment recovery service helps practices identify and resolve payment discrepancies. For one-time problem-solving or staff education, hourly consultation sessions cover everything from claim denials to EHR navigation, helping practices build the internal knowledge to handle similar issues in the future. Electronic transaction setup, including EFT enrollment and electronic remittance advice, rounds out the back office service offering. Clients include individual psychotherapists, psychologists, psychiatric prescribers, and multi-specialty group practices. The firm handles billing across a wide range of behavioral health services: individual, family, and group psychotherapy, telehealth, psychiatry, psychological and neuropsychological testing, transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS), and intensive outpatient programs (IOP). This focus on behavioral health rather than general medical billing means the team understands the specific coding rules and payer expectations that govern mental health and substance use treatment claims. Letendre Billing & Consulting has direct experience with payers operating in Rhode Island, Massachusetts, Connecticut, and Florida. The company was founded in 2024 by Ashley Letendre, who brings over ten years of behavioral health billing experience from both private practice and outpatient facility settings. Ashley holds a Bachelor's degree in Psychology from Rhode Island College and a professional coding certificate from the American Association of Professional Coders (AAPC), grounding the company in both the clinical and administrative sides of behavioral health care. If you are launching a new practice, dealing with persistent denials, or ready to fully outsource the billing side of your operations, Letendre Billing & Consulting offers straightforward, experienced support.
