Attention private duty nurses

Specialties Private Duty

Published

Hi, i just recently became a private duty nurse in NY, Since i've just got approved by medicaid and i already have my npi, does that mean i can only bill medicaid and not any other insurance provider?, as well as how often i should visit patients, and which patient i can visit?. Also wanted to know if u have a biller or u bill it ur self?, also where can i get a form for the patient chart, and where i can get the form for physician to fill out for patient( so that the doctor can give me his patients to take care of)? Since i live in ny, i need to know where i can get all the forms that i need for the patient and to put it in the chart?

Thanks in advance!!

I will send you a few choices of nurse notes, vent and non-vent. I have not billed an insurance company, so I'm no help in that regard :)

Hi.

I am an independent Medicaid provider in NYS. On the cases that I work we keep only a note book with our notes. But one of the nurses mentioned that she made her own flow sheets. Can you please send me your choices of nurse notes, vent and non-vent so that I will have an example and, perhaps, can create mine.

You'll need to create your own forms or purchase pre-printed forms.

The thing is that some states have posted forms for private duty nurses on the health department website, but NY does not have those forms on their health department website. I am sure that most PDN's don't buy the forms, because most of them are not what you need, thats only junk. The problem is that i can't find the forms i need in the state of NY, and i tried looking but no luck!!! I do know the names of which forms i need, anywhere i call, nobody has any clue what is Private Duty Nursing,
