Spotlight on “Incident-To” Services: Can You Withstand Scrutiny?


Coding incorrectly for non physician practitioner services will cost your practice money - and maybe even attract federal fraud fighters - so your only chance to earn your fair share of reimbursement and to stay out of trouble is to know the "incident-to" rules backwards and forwards.

Watch out: The HHS Office of Inspector General continues to keep non physician practitioner services at the top of its watch list. So if you’re billing incident-to services, find out if you can withstand scrutiny with this expert presentation from Duane C. Abbey, Ph.D., CFP.

Register now! The session will help you:

  • Determine what “incident-to” really means and how it relates to both hospitals and physicians.
  • Understand the two different uses of the phrase, incident-to, as provided in the Social Security Act (SSA)
  • Uncover why incident-to is such a compliance issue.
  • Relate these services to physician supervision requirements, the provider-based rule, and the 3-Day Payment Window.
  • Learn how physicians use the incident-to process for billing.
  • Avoid the incident-to mistakes by examining several case studies.

Ask a question at the Q&A session following the live event and get advice unique to your situation, directly from our expert speaker.

Who should attend? All personnel involved with compliance, coding, billing and reimbursement, financial analysts, health information management personnel, financial personnel, patient financial services personnel, chargemaster coordinators, provider-based clinic and/or clinical operations personnel, physicians and practitioners, and other interested personnel.
