Hi,

Our clinic owns the NST equipment. Our nurse manager is asking if RNs are allowed to perform fetal Non Stress Tests in clinic where the OBGYN is readily available? If the answer is yes, what would happen when the OBGYN doesn't interpret the NST until the day after? Do you still bill it (as global procedure) on the date the RN performed?
