Universal Citation: 18 DE Admin Code 1312-4.0
Current through Register Vol. 28, No. 3, September 1, 2024
Some surgical procedures require a primary surgeon and an assistant surgeon. Federal law sets forth guidelines for the payment, under Medicare Part B, for the services of assistants at surgery. No such guidelines exist in Delaware law, and in many cases health insurers will not pay for such services. The purpose of this regulation is to require that health insurers make payment for the services of assistants at surgery in the same manner as provided for under Medicare Part B.
