More and more, family practices rely on non-physician practitioners (NPPs) to provide quality care – they allow your practice to see more patients, give your physician greater flexibility to see other cases, and increase the level of revenue your providers generate.


But to maximize their effectiveness, you have to understand the rules that govern coding and billing NPP services – especially incident-to. For instance, can you bill an NPP’s work in the office incident-to while the supervising physician is seeing
a patient in the ED? Can an NPP initiate care for a new problem when a long-term patient comes in for a routine visit? How do you figure out billing when both the NPP and the MD conduct rounds on the same hospitalized patient?

Get the answers to those tricky scenarios and more with NPP billing guru Quin Buechner, who will explain just how family practices can stay on the right side of Medicare law. In this hour-long audio conference, Quin will discuss:

  • The fundamental (but crucial) elements of Medicare’s incident-to billing rules

  • The pros and cons of direct billing with the PA’s or NP’s PIN

  • Shared services – How Medicare recently opened up a whole avenue for billing these services

  • Private payers and just what to do when they don’t recognize a PA’s or NP’s PIN 

  • Which diagnostic tests your NPP can perform and supervise – and which they can’t (the answer might surprise you – Medicare’s policy on this was modified recently)

And we’ve left plenty of time for your NPP/Incident-to questions, too. Sign up today and start billing your NPP services with confidence!
