  • Shared services billing for PAs – do you do it?

How can billing be maximized in the hospital setting? The concept of incident to billing is an outpatient only application. While Physician Assistants (PAs) may not bill “incident to” in a hospital, they may bill under the physician they are working with, and collect 100% reimbursement if the shared billing criteria are met.

The Art of Attraction – Find and KEEP a Great PA/NP

Health E Careers

August 6, 2012
By Lisa P. Shock, MHS, PA-C Physician Assistants (PAs) and Nurse Practitioners (NPs) are skilled medical professionals who play an integral part in health care delivery. Especially in primary care, PAs and NPs attract and manage a significant following of patients, often in rural communities. Recruitment is challenging in more underserved areas; however, retention is often more important as practices and patients invest in an individual with the hope that they will stay and practice for a considerable amount of time. In my experience in rural North Carolina, it took me more than a year in my first job to attract some patients to our practice. They were afraid to “like me too much” for fear I would leave town and move onto another opportunity.
