Good Morning,
I am hoping someone can help me with this. Our physicians are allowing PA’s to perform surgeries. Medicare has denied a claim for this reason. In my research, I cannot find any clear cut Medicare rule stating that PA’s cannot perform surgeries. In fact, all I can find is that a PA’s scope of service is determined by the state. Does anyone have any information they could share?
Thank you in advance.
