Billing for anesthesia is not general billing with a different code set. Base units plus time units plus modifiers — reimbursement is computed rather than looked up, and rounding conventions differ by payer.
Medical direction and supervision modifiers change payment substantially and are among the most closely reviewed elements in the specialty.

Coding
Assigned by certified coders from your documentation.
Reporting
Denials segmented by reason, payer, and provider.
Where anesthesia claims actually fail
- Time units rounded to the wrong convention
- Medical direction modifier unsupported
- Concurrency requirements not documented
How we work it
We code from what your record documents and query you when it does not support a code, which in anesthesia is where most of the avoidable exposure sits.
Denials are worked by cause rather than in queue order, so the same failure stops recurring instead of being re-worked every month.
We keep the books. You run the business.
Categorization, reconciliation, month-end close, and clean financial statements — with nothing left for you to chase.

Anesthesia — Frequently Asked Questions
Do you have coders who know anesthesia?
+
Yes. All coding is performed by certified coders, and specialty assignment is deliberate — base units plus time units plus modifiers — reimbursement is computed rather than looked up, and rounding conventions differ by payer.
Do you guarantee we will collect more?
+
No, and nobody honestly can. Payment is decided by the payer. What we commit to is the process and the six numbers we report, which you can check against your own system.
