Clinical Trainees billing Optum Plans with the U5 modifier, DQ qualifier

Hi Everyone,

I am wondering how you all are handling this transition of new Optum payers that have been added so that we can send the U5 modifier with the DQ qualifier for our clinical trainees. Specifically, if you have a clinical trainee and a licensed provider seeing the same client with one of the payers that procentive split so clinical trainee and licensed people are billing different payers in procentive.

Any feedback on this change would be appreciated!
