So, I haven't gotten all the details, but from what I am understanding, as of October 1st, the person doing a medicare patient has to be either an RT or RPSGT... anyone else hearing about this? I am getting pulled up to Denver next week because we don't have enough RPSGT and I'm the only RRT on staff, we do have a CRT, but not sure if they count either, and we have 3 other RPSGT with one sitting this past month. (2 are bosses and not working in the labs at this point) so between me and the other guy, they are having to get creative on some of the medicare patients.
I am not sure how this will work where we are not the ones doing the billing (I don't actually have to worry about it, that is up to our gals who do the scheduling) but just curious if anyone else is noticing some changes this month???
