Hello Everyone,
I work for a hospitalist billing company which also bills for physician's assistants. Some of our PA's do H&Ps for surgeries and some do post op follow ups. They have a different tax ID than the surgeon who performed the surgery.
We have looked over CMS guidelines and have different translations on the rules. Can someone please clarify if a PA with a different tax id can bill for follow up care post surgical?
Thank you SO MUCH for any guidelines!
