Good morning,
An urgent care center is billing incident to. I'm finding it hard to understand how can they meet the requirements of incident to billing when patients seek care once for acute illnesses, injuries and maybe exacerbation of chronic disease. In my mind I see it's hard for an MD to see a patient where he/she diagnose and establish a plan of care to follow up with a NPP in that same setting, from experience they always have patient follow up with PCP.
Anyone can shed some light or guide me to literature where I can verify or anyone can give me scenarios of when is it okay to bill incident to in this setting location.
Thank you
