Well if he/she is paying out of pocket, its up to you how far youll go- if you are desperate for business, you will spend couple hours in making a list. If you arent interested in competing, you can say that you can give a price for a couple services only. But if you arent interested in people who go from placw to place and just waste your time, say that you only accept insurances. But its none of their business how much you charge the insurances. Thats private information of company!! You can bill and they can see on their personal summary of benefits. Nothing else is their business.

Is this regarding what you charge medical insurances or private pay by customers?

Does anybody experience issues with such minor medicare obligations? Sometimes i think my manager makes them up. One day its more signatures next to dates, next its NPI#s

Thats great. All practices are different though, from hositals to small practices. Plus not everyone has gone all electronic, some even avoid it!

That would be wonderful but as ive said before, our office doesnt issue the rx's, the patients come in with them. But its not a bad idea in the case ill be asking for an NPI thru fax request

perhaps everything outside of doctor's signing prescriptions and physically ordering them is legal

that would definitely be my manager - VERY SAFE. we aren't a doctor's office that's why we don't have much control, and poor patients! I believe its only basic information, but our manager prefers the doctor to be the bearer of full responsibility. If only there was a written instruction for nonlicensed personnel regarding prescriptions. I appreciate the reply!

yes patients come in to receive supplies with an RX, and the manager demands doctors to add their NPI#

are there any website articles I can take a look at, maybe Medicare, that would convince my office manager just in case an issue arises?

Hello everybody. I work in the medical field with a lot of prescriptions. New Medicare regulations demand that prescriptions have the physician's or CRNP's NPI# and their full name. Obviously, there are all types and formats of Rx's out there and 30% have no NPI. Is it legal for other medical personnel, and which ones, to add this "basic" information?? Some doctor's claim that they have no time to be chased down for a basic NPI scribble addition. PLEASE HELP!!!
