I need assistance regarding as to rather our cardiologist can billed for the injection of the propofal.
He performed a TEE and injected the patient with propofal with from what I gather is considered GA. According to the CPT manual 93312 includes moderate sedation.
From the information I received the propofal can only be administered by a CRNA or a licensed anesthesiologist in order to be billable. Someone suggested that I use
93312-47 and
00520-P1
I'm confused because the P1 modifier is only for anesthesiologist usage only. Can anyone clarify this?
