One of the providers I bill for currently sees patients in a nursing home. He is thinking of switching floors and if so, would be seeing long term care patients instead. I currently bill using CPT codes 99306-99316. I know Medicare A has different coverage for long term vs short term rehab/nursing home care. I was wondering if part B has different coverage as well. Will I still be able to bill the same codes for the same reimbursement? Any help in this area would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Both are facilities, different POS. So you are reimbursed the same at the facility rate than you are at the office POS. No difference between the two from a reimbursement perspective.
