Hello, I have a client that is a halfway house that bills for IOP, & OP. They do not have a medical doctor on staff yet; no a NP, PA or licensed social worker. They basically have certified counselors which medicaid and medicaid won't enroll. The group is enrolled with Medicaid but not Medicare or any other insurance company commercial. In the past they asked me to see about getting them participating but because they did not have a provider I was shut down. Now they have went through a huge process to become accredited with CARF. http://www.carf.org/home/ Personally I had never heard of CARF before. But my office seems to think this is the magic bullet and now all insurances will accept them. I don't know what to do with this. Does anyone know how I might get these folks some insurances to bill & pay for their much needed services? Anyone else know of CARF or why my office thinks they are the magic bullet. I really hope they are because they went through it to get it.
