Thanks Tom!
One more question: Would a CAH be able to bill globally if the read was done onsite or in the same locality, or would the claims always be split?

Dave,
For a critical access hospital to bill for the interpretation services of a radiologist, traditional reassignment procedures apply. An 855R is submitted by the CAH for each interpreting physician.
And the Medicare place of service billing guidelines also apply. The remote interpreting radiologists address for the service is denoted by the CAH billing for the reassigned interpretation in Box 32 of the 1500 claim form or electronic equivalent, unless that address for the location of the interpretation is an infrequent our unusual location.

Is anyone out there familiar with how a Critical Access Hospital would bill for radiologist professional component services? Specifically, how they would handle remote reads of studies done in their facility.
If you know how this works, I would like to chat with you.
Thanks!
