In my office we have started using the various behavioral health
screenings for our well child visits. These are the screenings
required because of the Rosie D law suit. We have been screening all
patients, not just the ones with Ma Health. Recently we received some
feedback from our billing office. HMO Blue has not been paying for the
screens completed by the NPs because they say we are not credentialed
providers to do that screening. Our billing dept. says they will look
into this, but I'm wondering if anyone has had a similar experience?
