I went to her when my doctor was unavailable. Thought she was most competent.

Does a PA charge the same as if you saw a doctor? Does Medicare know that a patient is not seeing a doctor and still approve the payment?

PAs & ARNPs are reimbursed at lower rates than physicians (usually) and are billed for by the doc's practice (usually). The doc is considered to be supervising them.
