Afternoon!
I have a question for the group here - new provider coming on board to this practice and in addition to Internal Medicine he would like to provide acupuncture services. We are a small concierge practice in Massachusetts. The provider is still in the process of obtaining a license for acupuncture services and he's hoping to treat clients around June.
Is there some resources or people will to share what are best practices on billing patients when they are receiving acupuncture services? Questions I'm thinking first are patients better off paying out of pocket or us billing the insurance plans? Should he keep his general medicine visits separate from the acupuncture service visits? Also should these visits be vetted to see if their insurance policies does cover acupuncture etc? I'm glad a have a few months to do homework on this!
Thank you in advance!
