ARNP Billing Inquiry
Question:
We have an ARNP joining our practice, can you please confirm which pain management procedures they are allowed to perform. Are they allowed to perform all procedures except RFA procedures?
Answer:
The answer to your question will depend on the NP scope of practice for your state so you will need to research this information for your state. In addition, check provider qualification requirements with your commercial payors and your MAC. The LCDs for Facet Joint Injections Epidural Steroid Injections, and Nerve Blocks for Chronic Pain and Neuropathy list the provider qualifications.
