Accurately coding anxiety disorders with ICD-10 and crafting a solid treatment plan are twin pillars of effective behavioral health practice.

Throughout, we’ll highlight how Behave EHR can streamline both coding and treatment planning, ensuring providers stay compliant and deliver high-quality care.
