Wiki CMS-1500 Question - PA

[eharloff]

For Box 31 on the CMS-1500 Form, if a patient sees a Physician Assistant, does the PA's name go in that box or does it have to be an MD or DO? Any help would be great! Thank you

Unless an ancillary provider is billing under their own name, they bill incident-to and the MD's name goes in box 31.
