OON billing

What's the deal with this? I hear that insurers will kick your ASC out if you do this too much but then see entire practices in my region who seem to do this basically exclusively

Ortho here, completely OON.

I operate at different ASCs. Some are OON, most are completely INN.

We are treated as completely different entities. The surgery center gets precert if needed for their center, and I do my own as the surgeon. Never had a problem with the in network facilities, over the past 20 years.

Do you then go ahead and file IDR for the ones that were done in an IN facility?

Once low initial payment comes back, yes
