Unfortunately, when an insurance claim is paid, one of the first things keyed in is the "license type" of the practitioner (MD, DO, DC) and that will determine whether the CPT/HCPC procedural codes will be paid. Standard of care issues may apply based off of license type so a particular code might be paid to a PT but not a DC and visa versa. Provider bias runs amock!
