I need help with the following scenario. Pt gets allergy shots every two weeks
from a nurse who has always given them to her who used to work uder a NP
in the same practice, and the NP is the patients provider. The nurse now works for another provider. We have been billing under the patients provider, but now the question has come up as to the correctness of this. Does anyone have any insight to this?
Thanks!
 
When billing for a nurse service you must bill under the provider that is in the office suite area and the nurse must be employed under that provider.
 
All of our providers work under the same NPI number, as we are a critical
access hospital. Does that make a difference?
Thanks!
 
As long as the nurse is an employee then any provider in the office suite at the time of the patient encounter can be the billing/supervising provider
 
NPI vs TIN

Hi, Group Tax ID yes
Group NPI perhaps you need to do some research?
Or you need to have a discussion with the credentialing manager?
NPI is an individual physician identifier some what like a social security number.
