If a New Self Referred Patient comes in to see our doctor the doctor doesn't want his name listed as the referring physician... Our practice has billed it that way in the past but since he has brought this up our IT created a self referred category but has had to put all 9's in for the NPI # so when it reaches the insurance company it is being rejected because of this... My question is does there have to be a referring physician on a self referred new patient and if so any suggestions on how to bill these?
