Just wondering if anyone else out there is billing their Behavioral Health claims to Medicare under FQHC billing. My office performs both medical and BH services and we have been filing our medical claims under FQHC for a few years, but we just changed our scope of service to include BH claims too, but we are having a horrible time trying to figure out how to bill them correctly.
On the medical side we file the visits to one Medicare and then we split off any diagnostic services and bill them to the other Medicare...wasn't sure if this was the same for the BH side, meaning - if we have a therapy visit would it go the same as a medical claim/encounter and then if we do any BH testing it would be billed as a diagnostic service??
If there is anyone who has done this or could point me in the right direction I would really appreciate it.
Thanks,
