Our physicians provide monthly rotation for a resident physician program. These residents are always with the physicians as they are seeing the patient in the clinic. We only have a issue when the residents see the patient in the ER and the supervising doctor is not always available and the resident is seeing the patient alone. This would be nights and weekend call. My question is on the Q6 modifier and the locum tenens requirements. Have other offices used this modifier and has it applied to residents? Any help would be appreciated. My thoughts are that this senario would not apply for locum tenens, but I am being told by administration to use this modifier.
Thank You!
