the following question was asked of me since I bill for physical therapy. I do not know the answer - maybe someone else does.
Question: An ortho physician contracts with/employs physical therapists and bills incident to his services. Can that same ortho physician practice accept patients of outside physicians who prescribe PT services and bill for the PT services (obviously not incident to billing) even if not seeing those patients? If so, how would the ortho physician bill for such PT services?
