We are a speech therapy company in NC that bills Medicaid on the 1500 form and at independent practiioner rates. Soon we will be licensed as a "Home Care Agency" in NC. The rates for Home Health Services are listed as higher than those that we have been receiving and are billed on a UB-04 form. My question is-Would we now qualify to bill for our services at the higher rate paid for Home Health Services in NC?
Thank You

Once you are licensed as a home health agency you will probably need to apply to Medicaid as a home health provider. I'm assuming you are currently enrolled in Medicaid as a speech therapy provider. Once you are set up with Medicaid as a home health agency you would bill on the UB04 at the higher rates.
