Hi everyone!

Does anyone know if a PA can see patients in their homes without the Physician present and can they see them for new conditions. The PA is billing under the Physician? :)
 
Our PA does home visits usually once or twice a month. Your PA could not bill incident-to in this case because there must have been a physician’s service which initiates the course of treatment during which incident-to services will be rendered. Also, incident-to requires physician supervision and that would not be the case for a home visit. The PA can bill under his own ID # though and be reimbursed at a reduced rate.
