We are currently being denied by Medicare for all x-rays billed under par participating PAs as they are not qualified to perform these services. In researching, I am realizing that they are supposed to be charging for the professional component of the x-ray (modifier 26) and the supervising physician bills for the technical component. (modifier TC)
My question is, when billing Medicare under the PA directly (NOT incident to), they dont require a supervising physician and are frequently seeing patients without direct supervision. So who would we bill the technical component under?
Thank you
