Wiki Medicare advantage plans lab

[CRC CPC]

Does the performing Lab bill for the lab as Medicare guidelines state? or can the provider bill for labs as commericial guidelines allow?

We are getting conflicting information anyone have any ideas?

The performing lab must bill the MA plan according to Medicare guidelines. MA plans must follow CMS guidelines when they process claims.

I hope this helps. Please let me know if you have any questions

Where did you get your information? I only ask because I will need something to take to my director.
