Topic
NP & PA Visits: Can the non-physician provider be billed under the physician? I have heard many questions in the last few months about whether a NP, PA, CNS can be billed under the physician’s provider number for any reason. Can it be done while the non-physician provider is waiting on their only provider number?
Join myself and guest speaker, Edward Vishnevetsky as he provides input on whether non-physician providers can be billed under the physician provider number. Mr. Vishnevesky is with Thompson & Coe in the Dallas, Texas office. Edward L. Vishnevetsky has extensive experience in the area of health law and commercial litigation. He routinely argues before state and federal courts in areas of health law, employment law, and complex commercial litigation, and also represents hospitals, physicians, durable medical equipment (DME) providers and manufacturers before various state and federal regulatory agencies. Edward advises health care clients on operational matters, liability exposure, privacy issues, federal and state health care regulatory compliance, health care reimbursement disputes, as well as risk management issues. Edward is fluent in Russian and has conversational knowledge of Spanish. To read his complete & extensive biography visit Thompson & Coe or Edward Vishnevetsky.
