We have been seeing prescriptions lately requesting we exclusively
provide dressing changes for newly amputated patients who are confined
to SNFs.
My questions are as follows:
1. Are dressing changes within our scope of practice?
2. Are we insured under our practice insurance or is a special rider
required?
3. Reimbursement and appropriate coding?
Thanks and I’ll post responses.
