Hi Rick, Do you have a recommendation on how to handle a situation where insurance authorizes X number of visits per diagnosis with different auth codes?
Thanks, Julie
I do not as that could be complicated.
Does this apply for different disciplines?
PT/ OT / SLP all on same date of service? Medicare/ Commercial?
Most payers allow their beneficiaries to receive multiple disciplines on the same date of service.
Just to clarify, if two separate physicians orders on file for two separate body parts, we can still treat both on the same day?
See answer to question #1.
