How is an in-house lab (Lab-Corp) set up in a Provider Based Physician Clinic. How is the billing done and CLIA, does lab-corp have to have their own CLIA number? Any help would be appreciated.
Provider Based rules are complex and always changing, so I'm not sure if my information is still current. But as I recall, if your provider based clinic is on-campus and the facility is not a critical access hospital, then your facility will need to be billing the labs along with the rest of the facility fees on the UB-04 claim, even if they have an outside company performing the work.How is an in-house lab (Lab-Corp) set up in a Provider Based Physician Clinic.

If Lab Corp is your "in house lab", then they handle everything themselves. You don't get to bill for what they do.How is an in-house lab (Lab-Corp) set up in a Provider Based Physician Clinic.
