We are the cardiac anesthesia group for our town. I received a phone call from the CEO of one of the hospitals this morning asking if we were currently billing for:
"Standby Call", which we are not, I have not heard of it.
He said he was under the impression that when the cath lab puts us on Standby, in case a patient is going to need heart surgery that there was a charge for that.
Does anyone know if there is such a charge and if so, how do you bill for this, when you dont have a patient to link it to?
Your help will be appreciated.
