Match POS Code and Provider Type
Published on Mon Sep 23, 2013
Question: I am receiving denial C0-170 (Payment is denied when preformed/billed by this type of provider) from Medicare when I bill for an initial nursing facility visit our physician assistant (PA) did. I am using place of service code 31 (Skilled Nursing Facility) and provider type 38 (Physician assistant). Why am I getting this denial?
