I am searching for the time period allowed by Medicare (IE: 3 months, 6 weeks, etc.) for billing for Locum services. I understand the modifier usage but want to be sure that we are compliant as far as time goes.
Thanks for any and all information!
 
Check in the claims processing manual. I remeber seeing a statemtn about it- I beleive it's 60 days.
 
Unless your provided is called to active duty overseas

The 60 day limitation is waived in this situation, as far as I know there is no time limit when your provided is active duty and deployed.
