Hi Histonetters
We are currently having a problem with our Medicare reimbursement on the
tech component of the 88305. If the patient has been seen at a hospital,
either in-patient or out- patient, we are told by Medicare that we have to
contract with that hospital to bill for the 88305. The
Is it a skilled nursing facility? If a patient is in an SNF (for rehab or
other reasons) then Medicare will not pay. The testing facility has to contract
with the SNF for payment. I have not seen this with a hospital, though.
