How do ARNPs and PAs bill for services they perform without any direct physician involvement in the particular service – under their own billing numbers or the physicians billing number?
Either is acceptable. In an outpatient or physician office setting, ARNPs and PAs can bill “incident to” a physician’s services, under the physician’s UPIN number, when the “incident to” rules are met. Alternatively, in either inpatient or outpatient/physician office settings, they may bill under their own billing numbers at a reduced rate.
