Once a month by medicare policy. But you can see a patient for more than once a month only if this occurs:

1. A change in patient's conditions. That is a new diagnosis from the previous visit.

Make sure you document clearly since you might get audited by Medicare. Medicare should pay for your visit. I don't recommend you see patient everytime a nurse calls you for something like antibioctics for UTI, cough-possible bronchitis etc...A change in conditions that might be require you to see the patient that will prevent admission to the hospital or prevent further deterioration to serious conditions. You need to use your judgement here.
