Hello,
For those of you who bill for PAs, I have a question. Do any of you know whether a PA can be a scribe for a doctor during a consultation, until her billing numbers come in? We were told by an auditor that we could do this, however, our PA came in today and said that she heard Medicare is not paying for these consults. Any ideas?
Also for billing hospital work, if the PA did the work, this all goes under her numbers...is this correct and get reimbursed at 85% This is what I thought I read under Medicare regulations and PA Medical Society Laws....just wanted to be sure, since we never had a PA working for us before.
Thanks for your help!
