Ambulatory Surgery Reimbursement Update, May 1, 2007
The Missouri Ambulatory Surgery Center Association (MASCA) held an educational presentation on the national provider identifier (NPI) lead by Barbara Gerke of Ascension Health April 12, according to the MASCA Web site.
The presentation, titled "NPI: Business Impact and Medical Office Considerations," addressed ongoing confusion about the NPI contingency plan.
Gerke provides answers to such topics as where to fill out the NPI number on your new 1500-HICF form, how to implement the NPI, how to train staff on use of the NPI, and whether or not your billing software can handle an NPI.
