What about reimbursement from commercial plans for a nurse practitioner assistant surgeon (modifier AS)? Does anyone expect to be paid by them? Being new to CT Surgery billing, we have several plans who I am told 'do not accept' nurse practitioners, but this seems ridiculous.

If your Nurse Practitioner is credentialed with the insurance company, for example, Blue Cross recognizes NP, they reimburse at 85% of the physician reimbursement. Remember, preauthorization is necessary.
