Attending supervising Fellow while seeing own patients

Can an attending supervise a Fellow while at the same time see and bill for his own patient census? Is there a CMS reg I can refer to?
Thanks - need info ASAP

Attending supervising a fellow

I don't really understand the question.

An attending physician does not have to be with a resident or fellow at all times: the attending may see the patient seen by a resident or fellow before or after the resident. During the course of the day, the attending may see patients billed without a resident.

Under the teaching physician rules, the work of the resident may be billed under the attending's number for services provided jointly with the resident.

Put the word "teaching" in the search box, and you will fin a half dozen articles on the topic.

Or, can you explain your question further?

The CMS rules on Teaching PHysicians are in Chapter 12, Section 100 of Publication 100-04. You can download from here:
