Locums or Locums Tenens is a concept of a physician’s substituting or filling in for another physician. This can be for a variety of reasons. It allows them to see patients for in a temporary manner without the need for credentialing.
As is often the case, first we look to Medicare for their rules on the topic of Locum Tenens. Medicare made major changes to the Locum Tenens section of the Manual in the last few years. Understanding those changes and the sometimes-complex billing and documentation requirements for Medicare patients is a start. Researching and implementing the policies of other insurance carriers is the next step in making sure your office has compliant documentation in patient’s charts as well as other documentation carriers may require. Locum Tenens is not as simple as putting a modifier on a claim when another physician sees patients in your office. Compliant documentation, tracking and knowing who can perform these “substitute provider” services is an important part of the process and will be explained during this webinar.
As national agencies market for Locums providers, knowing the rules will keep providers from engaging in non-compliant relationships.
