We are switching from the hospital billing system to Softdent on Monday September 15. During training it came to our attention that the claim forms are generated from the schedule in Softdent. Our current procedure for claims is that all the residents and hygienists are billed under our program director and claims are sent out under his NPI # and license #. With the way Softdent is set up we can have a "billing provider" and a "treating provider". Our problem is that the residents do not have license numbers but they do have NPI numbers. The hygienists have license numbers but no NPI numbers. The ADA claim form has those fields under the treating provider section. Is it ok to have the resident/hygienist listed on the claim form without having a license number or NPI? I hope you can help us solve this problem as we are going live with the new software on Monday. Thank you for your time and assistance.1answer36views Good afternoon, where can i buy this coding books for CDC exam. i stay in Doha-Qatar where i cannot find this books.
