How should I send claims to Medicare? Dr wants me to send each DAY seperately.

The dr wants me to send each day separately when he sees ICU pts. He says Medicare doesn't like paying ICU and there is less of a chance that Medicare will deny the claim if I send a claim for each day. So if he sees and ICU pt for 5 days, I have to send 5 separate claims. Is he correct? Will it even make a difference?

No not at all, You can claim all at-once, there is no logic behind claiming for each day separately. I think that doctor needs to be review the claiming claws and for Medicare approach to a knowledgeable person. Medicare can provide a good help for you, go ahead with it and do a right and fruitful approach.
