Wiki Billing for an Inpatient Stay

Hello Fellow AAPC Coding Professionals:

I am working on an audit and am not familiar with billing for critical access hospitals. A patient is admitted for five days and is seen by three different hospitalists. All five encounters are billed
under the discharging physician. Is this correct? I am used to the good old way where the physician that sees the patient bills.

Thank you
 
I code in a CAH and we bill with the name of the provider performing the service.
