We are a multi-specialty group which employs 12 APN and 1 PA. We cannot bill incident-to for most of their visits because 1.) the physician does not always initially see the patient, and, 2.) the physician does not necessarily play an active part in the ongoing care of the patient. That said, my medical director wants me to find information on supervisory billing and the only thing I have found so far pertains to attending physicians for residents. I do not believe we can do this, but my supervisor, who has never worked in health care before says that until I can show her written guidelines stating that we cannot bill our APN visits under the supervising physicians, we will continue that practice.
Does anyone have a "go-to" website that I can visit and get printed guidelines about this issue?
thanks
