I am new to a practice that is a primary care clinic open 7 days a week. There are two physicians for patient care. One is the owner, the other an employee. Owner physician is credentialed with accepted insurance plans, employee physician is not credentialed. No credentialing applications have gone out so there is no pending credentialing approvals.
Since this is not a locum tenens situation (beyond 60 days) how can we bill when employee physician is performing services? Can Line 24J have rendering provider NPI (employee physician) and Block 33 have billing provider NPI (owner physician)? Any special documentation in the medical record required?
