APP in Medical Billing Explained
Advanced Practice Providers (APPs) are qualified healthcare professionals who often work alongside physicians to deliver patient care. In billing, APPs can bill for their services separately under their own NPI number or under the supervising physician, depending on the practice setting.
For example, a physician assistant (PA) bills for services rendered during a patient visit, with the claim submitted under their own APP credentials.
