Wiki BILLING FOR OCCUPATIONAL THERAPY UNDER A PHYSICIAN

[PATPER]

I WORK FOR A ORTHOPEDIC HAND SURGEON WE ARE ADDING OCCUPATIONAL THERAPIST TO OUR STAFF. I HEARD THAT WE CAN BILL FOR OT SERVICES UNDER THE PHYSICIAN BEING AS MOST COMMERCIAL PAYERS DO NOT CREDENTIAL OCCUPATIONAL THERAPIST. WHAT IS THE PROPER WAY TO BILL OUT THESE SERVICES. ON 1500 CLAIM FORM DO I PUT IN BOX 17 THE PHYSICIANS NAME AS SUPERVISING PHYSICIAN (DQ)?
