Supervising a PA

[FiveRivers]

Advertisement - Members don't see this ad

Hey guys,

I am looking into a practice opportunity that involves supervising a PA. So far, I have been informed that I have to obviously co sign the PA's notes, however, does anyone know how often (or times/year) I have to actually see the patient?

Does Medicare have any requirement I should be aware of (for example, supervising physician must see the patient at least q 6 months?)

Thanks for any guidance.

Check your state laws.
