Wiki New Gastro ASC

[lisner1204]

Hello. I am new to billing for an ASC. Our gastro practice is opening an ASC soon. Do I bill facility charges on a UB04 forms for all payers for the ASC? So if I have a procedure 45378 I will bill my physicians services on a CMS-1500 with my practice tax id and 45378 for the facility on UB04 with the ASC tax id?

Thanks for the help.

For the most part you are correct. Most carriers require UB04 for ASC claims but Medicare, some WC carriers and occasionally supplemental carriers require the CMS1500. Hope this helps.
