I have read the incident to guidelines for billing NPP's under the MD's NPI for CMS, but I am wondering if there are any exceptions to this rule. These guidelines would suggest that most visits in a Primary Care setting would have to be billed under the NPP and paid at 85%; even with advanced oversight of the MD (reviewing & signing of on notes, agreeing to or adjusting treatment plans, and assisting with complex diagnostics). It just doesn't seem right that the NPP & MD collaborate provide thorough, timely services, but the office would only receive 85% of already low reimbursements for almost every visit that is scheduled (between new pts & pts who come in for f/u & present with new issues or need med changes) with an NP or PA. I feel like I must be missing something. Are there really no other billing options for billing NP & PA visits under the MD for full reimbursement except incident to or split billing? ![Confused :confused: :confused:](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
