[NPInfo] Re:new practice

[Tabbytomey at aol.com]

Could those of you in private practice give me some ideas of what to expect  
for reimbursements? A typical well woman annual exam for instance- & then  
perhaps, a medicare pt w/HTN, obesity, insomnia, or something similar. I had  
another doctor tell me today that he is no longer a MC provider, although he is  
accepting MC pts. I'm guessing that means he isn't accepting assignment. 
 
The medical biller who was supposed to be working on applications for  
provider numbers for the new office, wasn't. Now, we'll be open & seeing  pts  we 
can't bill for until she files all those forms.  I know it  will take months to 
receive MC numbers, but what about the other insurance  companies? 
 
Thanks!
