IMPORTANT: If you think that just knowing where your physician is when your NPP performs a service is enough to comply with Medicare supervision rules THINK AGAIN. This is only one SMALL piece of complying with these complex regulations required to get paid at the higher physician rate.
Complying with Non-Physician Practitioners (NPPs) incident-to billing and supervision rules is just plain confusing. Even an innocent mistake can cost you tens of thousands of dollars, or even worse, land you in serious financial and legal hot water.
The only thing standing in your way from maximizing your NPP reimbursement is deciphering and complying with Medicare’s complex incident-to supervision and billing rules. This is where Kim Huey, MJ, CHC, CPC, CCS-P, PCS, CPCO, COC, can help
During her 60-minute online training session, Kim will walk you through Medicare’s incident-to supervision rules and tell you EXACTLY how you can stop losing money on these every-day services. During this plain-English, online training, you’ll receive proven coding, billing and compliance tactics you can easily implement to improve the accuracy of your NPP claims. Ultimately, this training will help you receive the highest reimbursement ethically possible for your NPP services.
Here are just a few of the proven, step-by-step tactics you’ll receive by attending this 60-minute online NPP coding, billing and compliance training:

CMS continues to aggressively target practices filing NPP incident-to claims for audits, and it doesn’t matter what type of NPP your practice is utilizing (i.e., PA, NP, CRNA, CNM, CNS, etc.). CMS knows that NPP billing requirements are complicated, and regularly result in errors. They see it as low-hanging fruit to recoup reimbursement they believe has been paid in error or collect by imposing penalties for noncompliance. Don’t let this happen to you…
You can get paid more of what you deserve for your NPP services AND stay off of CMS’ audit radar. And this expert-led online training will show you how. Don’t wait, sign up for this must-attend online training today.
