I work in a hospital. I am looking for an anesthesia code for 97597. The anesthesia crosswalk reports no anesthesia code for this CPT code. Anesthesia is new to me so if anyone has any thoughts I'd really appreciate your help. This was irrigation and debridement of a nonhealing surgical wound of the left foot.
 
Perhaps

00300 Anesthesia for all procedures on the integumentary system, muscles and nerves of head, neck, and posterior trunk, not otherwise specified

00400 Anesthesia for procedures on the integumentary system on the extremities, anterior trunk and perineum; not otherwise specified
