Can a PA/NPP perform a consultation in the hospital setting?
Thanks

Why would they?
If I was the Primary care doc, I'd never use that specialist again!!!! I want a doctor's opinion, not a PA!

Yes, but bill it under their own provider number. It may not be billed under the MD provider number as a shared visit.
See the Codapedia article on this topic.
