Hello Jimmie: I don't collaborate with any other discipline. I don't feel like I even collaborate with physicians. I ask for scripts, I send them plans of care, they sign them and that's it! I really am on my own, unless I reach out and ask for help.
I want to ask for a point of clarification. By Medicare standards, isn't it acceptable for two disciplines to co-treat and bill separately so long as there are separate goals for each discipline?
