How are NP acting as attending physician reimbursed as far as fee schedule - same percentage MD would get or a lesser percentage?

NPs are reimbursed at 85% of physician reimbursement.
You bill the same amount for the service, whether provided by physician or NP, but the reimbursement for the NP is 85% of the physician.
Hope that helps
