(1) An individual practitioner may not claim
payment under his or her own name and provider ID/service location number for

partner, or employee of the individual practitioner.
(2) An individual practitioner may not claim
payment under his or her own name and provider ID/service location number for

long-term-care facility, pharmacy, home health agency, health maintenance
organization, community health center, psychiatric day treatment program, day
habilitation center, and adult day care center). In such cases, payment may be
claimed only by the institution or facility.
