How would you bill for an evaluation that a student does while the overseeing therapist has another patient at the same time? Thanks

You should be able to bill as usual, but it is going to depend on the policies of your facility and if the patient has Medicare or not. If the patient has Medicare the eval would be unbillable. Here is a link that has a chart from the APTA which explains reimbursement for Medicare: http://www.cyberpt.com/documents/studentsupervisionchart.pdf - http://www.cyberpt.com/documents/studentsupervisionchart.pdf
