I deal with a few pediatric outpatient OT/ST/PT clinics here in Alabama. They all take the regular insurances. I was informed by one of the owners that Medicaid only allows 2 units for a 30 min session. I was trained in therapy billing by the last person that was the biller at the last clinic I was at. But, tonight, I was introduced to the "rule of 8" chart that shows you can only bill 2 units for a 30 min session with Medicaid. BCBS you can bill 3. 4 units for 45, etc. Was I taught wrong or is there documentation that states otherwise. Thanks!!
