We are a billing resource-center for providers of mental health services - from single practitioners to counseling centers with dozens of therapists. Our resource center can provide billing consultation, practice-management software, software support, electronic-billing, processing services, and accounting support services.

Typically, single-practitioners will ask for services, while counseling centers will ask for systems. We've found, though, that the most cost-effective solution is usually a unique combination of software, support and services.

Most providers view their choices as 1) buying a billing system, or 2) using a billing service. Cost-effectiveness is often poor, for these reasons:

• While a billing service can be very effective, the cost of collection is a problem.
• While in-house billing offers the potential of cost-effectiveness, billing mistakes and inefficiencies can sharpy reduce collections.

The Resource Center allows you to select a balanced solution - a solution that has the right balance of systems, support and services. The solution is infinitely flexible, designed to address your unique needs.

This flexibility is the key to cost-effectiveness. It enables you to experiment with cost-cutting measures, knowing that Summit-Edge is providing full support for the effort. This safety-net allows you to get the most out of local resources, without jeopardizing collections.

Like the mountain climbers in the picture, reaching the summit requires cutting-edge tools and strategies. So, we call our company Summit-Edge. Please look around the web site, to learn more about our unique billing solutions.
