"Can a Nurse Practitioner bill for a new patient?"

Medicare has specific rules related to billing for Nurse Practitioners and Physician Assistants. These incident to rules are specific and detailed. Can a NP see a new patient? Yes, but bill it under the NP's provider number, not under the physician's provider number.
