Hello everyone.
I was wondering if those who have made a transition from a group practice to their own solo practice might be able to help me with this transition. I will spare you the details about why I am leaving.
Current situation: I am a 1099 employee and in the process of credentialing. I would like to set up a private practice cash only.
Questions:
-My main question is that if I get credentialed under his group practice, can I then start up my own practice to take Cash Only patients? I don't want to run into a scenario where I am breaching a contract because I am taking cash from a patient who has insurance. Should I reach out to each individual insurance company to see what the policy is to ensure that I can see cash only patients later?
-I plan on updating all my information (NPI, insurance, DEA, CSA, etc) however will this address change affect the credentialing process? Again, I ideally would like to get credentialed and reimbursed but I also want to actively pursue other patients.
-New business: If I am starting my own private practice with cash only intentions will I need a separate NPI (NPI I and II)?
I would appreciate any advice or wisdom others have about completing this process.
