A boolean indicator identifying that a healthcare service was billed under the supervising physician National Provider Identifier rather than the non-physician practitioner who actually delivered the service, using Medicare incident-to billing rules that allow non-physician services to be reimbursed at the full physician fee schedule rate rather than the reduced non-physician practitioner rate when specific supervision and billing criteria are met. Medicare incident-to billing requires that the supervising physician is present in the office suite during service delivery, the non-physician practitioner is an employee or contractor of the physician practice, the service is part of the physician established plan of care, and the physician billed the initial service. Incident-to billing is a significant compliance risk area — incorrect application of incident-to rules when supervision requirements are not met constitutes improper billing.
