Hi Jim, thank you for your response.
We usually bill this for the physician. I am checking to see anyone's experience in billing this service for a NP.
I do have this information below but posted here to check if anyone is already doing this
Please refer page 39.
Can a non-physician practitioner (NPP), such as nurse practitioners (NPs) and physician assistants (PAs), perform SCRM/ILR insertion and removal procedures? Medicare may reimburse an NPP performing this procedure as long as it is within the scope of their practice, it is allowed by state license requirements, and the facility allows NPPs to perform the procedure in their facility.
