If you’re responsible for billing or managing non-physician practitioners (NPPs), you’ve probably run into difficult questions: Can we bill this under the physician’s NPI? Are we following Medicare rules? Are we missing out on revenue?

These are exactly the kinds of challenges incident-to billing was designed to address — but only if it’s done right. Many practices either avoid incident-to billing because it’s complicated, or they use it incorrectly, risking audits or potentially forgoing revenue they’re eligible for.

Join ModMed Senior Director of Billing and Coding Compliance Ronda Tews as she cuts through the confusion and provides a straightforward look at how to use incident-to billing effectively. We will walk through real-world scenarios and explain policies and documentation requirements from the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) and Medicare Administrative Contractors (MACs).

Plus, Product Owner Danielle Hadley will demo what incident-to billing looks like in EMA®, from selecting billing providers to cosigning notes.

You will learn:

  • What qualifies as incident-to billing and when it makes sense to use it
  • Medicare’s core requirements and how to meet them
  • How state laws and payer policies can impact billing decisions
  • When and how to use incident-to billing for established patients
  • Practical tips to reduce errors and capture eligible revenue

ModMed powers the AI-Powered Practice for specialty physicians nationwide, helping them finish notes in less than an hour.
