Our practice performs nuclear stress tests in the office. We normally have Dr. A in the office while the test is being performed, so we bill the 93016 under Dr. A. We bill 78452 and 93018 under Dr. B. He is not in the office while the test is being performed, but performs the interpretation of the testing. Should we bill the technical component, 93017 under Dr. A or Dr. B?
 
Our clinic bills the 93017 technical component of the test under the provider that was supervising the study as he was the provider present while the test was actually being performed which would be Dr. A in your scenario below. Hope this helps.
