Hi there!
I just started medical billing for an oral surgeon. Where do I indicate anesthesia minutes, on the medical claim form, for cpt code 00170 cdt D9222, & D9223

Hi Guest!

Great question. Typically this is reported by 1 unit per 15 minute increment in field 24g on the line items for the anesthesia.
You can also enter the total (exact) minutes in field 19. If you wish.


Hope this helps!
