The anesthesia CPT ® codes list covers anesthesia services provided in conjunction with procedures on specific body areas such as the head, neck, spine and spinal cord, upper leg, or elbow.
These phrases indicate that the work involved in performing that procedure requires anesthesia, whether it is general anesthesia, regional anesthesia, or monitored anesthesia care. The appropriate anesthesia code is reported separately. Moderate (conscious) sedation is not an anesthesia service.

Anesthesia for Other ProceduresCPT® 01992, Under Anesthesia for Other Procedures The Current Procedural Terminology (CPT®) code 01992 as maintained by American Medical Association, is a medical procedural code under the range - Anesthesia for Other Procedures.
There are three types of anesthesia: general, regional, and local. Sometimes, a patient gets more than one type of anesthesia. The type(s) of anesthesia used depends on the surgery or procedure being done and the age and medical conditions of the patient.
ICD-10-PCS will be the official system of assigning codes to procedures associated with hospital utilization in the United States. ICD-10-PCS codes will support data collection, payment and electronic health records. ICD-10-PCS is a medical classification coding system for procedural codes.
ICD-9 uses mostly numeric codes with only occasional E and V alphanumeric codes. Plus, only three-, four- and five-digit codes are valid. ICD-10 uses entirely alphanumeric codes and has valid codes of up to seven digits.
Code set differences ICD-9-CM codes are very different than ICD-10-CM/PCS code sets: There are nearly 19 times as many procedure codes in ICD-10-PCS than in ICD-9-CM volume 3. There are nearly 5 times as many diagnosis codes in ICD-10-CM than in ICD-9-CM. ICD-10 has alphanumeric categories instead of numeric ones.

ICD-10 coding for fractures represents some of the most significant changes in the transition from ICD-9 to ICD-10. ICD-10 differentiates traumatic fractures from pathological fractures, and requires increased specificity in the documentation including:
ICD-10 offers specific codes to identify laterality (right, left), site specificity (quadrant, specific area), as well as gender (male, female). While the latter is typically provided in documentation presently, it is important to note that ICD-10 does not provide an “unspecified” gender code for malignant neoplasm conditions. Documentation which does not identify the gender for Neoplasm of Breast cannot be processed without this identification.
Although all types of anesthesia involve some risk, major side effects and complications from anesthesia are uncommon. Your specific risks depend on your health, the type of anesthesia used, and your response to anesthesia.

Post-Operative Pain Management and Epidural Catheters Surgeons routinely provide necessary post-operative pain management services and are reimbursed for these services through the global surgery fee. The surgeon should manage post-operative pain except under extraordinary circumstances.
If two procedures are billed with different unit values are billed, the first procedure will be paid and the second one will deny because the subsequent procedure is included in the primary anesthesia charge.
Anesthesia services include: • All customary preoperative and postoperative visits, • Local anesthesia during surgery, • The anesthesia care during the procedure, • The administration of any fluids deemed necessary by the attending physician, and any usual monitory procedures Interpretation of non-invasive monitoring to include EKG, temperature, blood pressure, pulse, breathing, electroencephalogram and other neurological monitoring, Monitoring of left ventricular or valve function via transesophageal echocardiogram, Maintenance of open airway and ventilatory measurements and monitoring, Oximetry, capnography and mass spectrometry. Monitoring all fluids used during cold cardioplegia through non-invasive means.
This section describes program-specific benefits and limitations. Refer to Chapter 3, Verifying Recipient Eligibility, for general benefit information and limitations.
The CPT® book, in its Anesthesia Guidelines, at the start of the Anesthesia section, states, “These services include the usual preoperative and postoperative visits….”
Preoperative assessment is included in the payment for the anesthesia services, per the National Correct Coding Initiative (NCCI).
