Medical Billing Companies & Consultants in Hayes, VA

Comprehensive Billing Consultants (CBC) is a revenue cycle management firm based in Hayes, Virginia, in Gloucester County north of Hampton Roads. It works only with organizations that deliver autism therapy, especially applied behavior analysis (ABA) practices, and supports clients across the United States. For buyers comparing medical billing vendors, CBC stands out as a niche specialist rather than a general multi-specialty biller.

Services for Autism and ABA Providers

CBC takes the insurance side of a practice off the hands of clinicians and owners, so they can spend their time on patient care. Its stated goals are higher collections and smaller outstanding receivables. Its services cover most of the reimbursement cycle:

• Full-service ABA claims billing, from submission and follow-up through payment posting
• Accounts receivable maintenance and cleanup
• Denial management and insurance appeals
• Insurance verification and payer research
• Authorization support
• Provider credentialing with insurance panels
• Commercial payer contracting and contract management
• On-site auditing and practice consulting
• Biller training, including its ABA Billing Bootcamp

How CBC Works with Clients

Clinics can outsource their whole billing operation to CBC or use the firm for specific tasks. A clinic might hire it to get credentialed and contracted with insurers before opening, to audit existing claims for compliance risk, or to train its in-house staff.

Its consulting and education work is meant to build up a clinic's own revenue cycle skills, not just to replace them. Industry coverage notes that CBC's training helps ABA billers avoid expensive mistakes and stay ready for audits, and that certified instructors on staff offer continuing education and help learners prepare for billing certification exams.

Credentials and Background

CBC says every member of its team holds certification in medical billing, coding and reimbursement. It describes itself as the first ABA billing team in the country to have its entire staff certified. According to its Better Business Bureau listing, the business began operating in late 2014 and was incorporated as a limited liability company in 2019.

Sarah Schmitz is listed as part of its management. The firm has been BBB accredited since 2018 and holds an A+ rating. It is also a business affiliate of the Council of Autism Service Providers.

Published company descriptions note that several team members have relatives on the autism spectrum, which gives the staff a personal tie to the community it serves.

CBC is involved in the wider ABA billing field as well. It hosted the first revenue cycle conference focused specifically on ABA, open to both providers and billing professionals. Its website reports that it has received Autism Speaks' Autism Friendly Designation.

Healthcare Business Review named it a Top Autism Billing Service for 2025 and reported that CBC agreed to provide formal training toward an AAPC billing credential, with ABA-specific modules planned later. For autism therapy providers looking for a billing partner that combines day-to-day claims work with credentialing, compliance auditing and staff education, CBC offers a focused and specialized option.
