Professional Billing<\/h2>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

This culture is embedded in the fabric of our work and is integral to our interactions within the organization, with our partners in UW Medicine, and in our interactions with patients, our community, and with government and commercial entities. Professional fee billing occurs for services performed by physicians, Advanced Practice Professionals, and other ancillary services performed in freestanding clinic locations.<\/p>\n
