Just wondering if anyone can give me some info on how to handle/bill for Locums NP/PA.....?
 
Remember to use Modifier Q6 on all your locum tenens claims. There are some extra steps that must be taken in order for your locum tenens claims to be reimbursed by Medicare. The Q modifier should be listed as a procedure code so Medicare knows you're claiming services rendered by a locum tenens physician. If you don't use the modifier, you claim will likely be denied. Also the maximum time limit for billing for locum tenens physicians is currently sixty days.
