What is a deductible?

How Deductibles Work in Your Practice

Navigating high-deductible plans is one of the most common administrative tasks for clinicians. Unlike a standard copay, a deductible requires the client to pay the full negotiated rate until the specified deductible amount is met.

  • Your Responsibility: Collect the full contract rate (provided in the benefit verification) during each session and add the session to your CCS Simple Practice calendar to be submitted to insurance.

  • The Benefit: You keep 100% of the funds collected at the time of service, which helps your immediate cash flow. Insurance applies the session amount to the client's deductible.

  • The CCS Split: Since you've already collected the money, CCS simply accounts for its administrative fee by listing it as a "subtraction" on your bi-monthly payment report once the claim is processed.
