Split/Shared Visits Update
Description
A split or shared visit is an evaluation and management (E/M) service performed jointly by a physician and a non-physician practitioner (NPP) from the same group in a facility setting. Under applicable laws and regulations, either the physician or the NPP may bill for the service—provided they deliver it independently. Reimbursement goes to the practitioner who performs the substantive portion of the visit.
However, many practices mistakenly confuse shared visits with “incident to” services, which are fundamentally different. In this episode of the CodeCast podcast, Terry breaks down the distinction and clears up the confusion.
