| Billing for group therapy the right way |
| Two patients come to your practice at the same time to receive therapy. One is having trouble with a shoulder injury, and the other is recovering from knee surgery. You spend 50 minutes working with both patients. Should you bill for group therapy?
Not necessarily. Many therapists mistakenly think that just because they have more than one patient at their facility under their care at one time, they are providing group therapy, says Rick Gawenda, PT, director of rehabilitation services for Detroit Receiving Hospital in Ypsilanti, MI. |
