smh1091 Posted December 24, 2015 Share Posted December 24, 2015 I recently started working in a bariatric surgery private practice setting in Florida. My new supervising physician is asking for the law or statute that discusses billing under a PAs NPI vs a physicians NPI. He is not sure when he can bill under his NPI vs mine. Does anyone know a link where I can find this law? I have searched and am unable to find anything that clearly states this. Thank you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jmj11 Posted December 24, 2015 Share Posted December 24, 2015 This also varies between insurances. CMS has a very finite rule for incident to verses independent billing. Some private insurers (especially those that see a PA as invisible) require all billing under the physician's NPI and some may force all under the PAs NPI (so they have an excuse to pay less).
