Hello,
I have been billing for a short time for our resident program. We are starting to have an issue with our supervising physicians not signing the resident's H&P for the Attending Supplement. My supervisor says without that signature, we are unable to bill for that H&P. Our billing office is looking at the first progress note from later on in the same day and counting that as an H&P if the overseeing doc signed that. What is the accurate way to do this? Are we able to bill the H&P this way, or only the subsequent visit later that day? Thanks!!
