For insurance filing purposes, which provider appears on the claim form as the provider?

The main idea is that the claim is filed under the provider who handles billing for the service. The billing provider is the entity that submits the claim to the payer and is responsible for payment and remittance. That’s why their name and identifiers appear on the claim form as the provider. The clinician who actually performed the service is the rendering provider, and that information can be included in a separate field if it differs from the billing provider. Attending and referring providers have their own places on the form to show who directed care or who referred the patient, but they’re not the primary billing identifier.
