We are not enrolled as providers for Medicaid, but have recently been doing some inpatient consults. One of our physicians did an ERCP with stent placement today on an inpatient. There will be an outpatient ERCP scheduled for the removal. Is my physician required to schedule the removal since he did the placement, or can we legally refer the patient to the provider in town who is enrolled with Medicaid? I cannot find anything on the Medicaid website. What follow-up is required from us for a Medicaid patient from an emergent service? Can we bill the patient since we are not a provider?
