Our anesthesiologists are documenting their use of this technique to prevent "surgical awareness" during the operation. Can this technique be billed separately or is it included in the routine monitoring? If it can be billed, which codes would you suggest? Thanks in advance!

CODING STAFF, PLEASE REPLY TO JENNIFER. The anesthesiologist I code for also document the BIS MONITOR what code should be used for
