Homecare Part B Question

Do any of you have on hand the link to the MC transmittal that outlines the

rules governing PT services provided to beneficiaries in the home (not

homebound) by providers in private practice billing Part B? Specifically, I

am trying to determine if PTA's are allowed to provide any treatment

(unsupervised) in the home.

I understand that a PTA can provide a treatment under Part A after the PT

does an evaluation, but was under the assumption that only a PT could do it

if under Part B (provider in a private practice). If I am correct, can

someone explain why there is a different criterion of supervision for a PTA

for services provided in a clinic (Part B) vs. in a home (home health agency

Part A).

Thanks for your help. I will continue my search for the transmittal.
