What are the rules for using a new provider, not yet credentialed with Medicare. Also, can you use a locum tenen for NP's and incident to billing?

You cannot bill a physician using a different physician NPI, you can bill those as out of network or have the provider wait until creditiialing is completed before seeing patients. I am not sure about billing incident to visits using a locum NPI, you may need to check with your Medicare rep on that one.
