Thank you

The doctors(professional) bill is on the 1500. The UB04 is used for hospital(facility) billing.

Thank you So much What about Emergency room physicians - Can they use ub-04 for emergency room visit?

Normally you don't see a doctor claim on the UB-04.

The physician bills on a CMS-1500.

(There might be some very specific circumstances for Critical Access Hospitals (CAH) where the facility bills for professional services too, but there are specific rules and written attestations involved. If you're billing in the Critical Access Hospital setting, you're going to want to get information specific to that. It's not my area of expertise, so I really can't advise on that subject.)

Edit to add: I'm guessing you may not be working with CAH hospitals, since I don't think New Jersey has any.
