Good morning-
I am reaching out to see how you interpret "directly supervised by a physician" when a qualified non-physician practitioner (PA, APRN) or medical professionals (health educator, RN) perform an AWV.
Our organization is interpreting "directly supervised by a physician" to mean that "the provider is readily available and not doing another billable task (i.e. seeing a different patient)".
interested in your thoughts!
