Hi All!

I have an autistic adult patient who's going to need general anesthesia for a nephrostomy tube placement (CPT 50433) and the facility is asking for the CPT for the anesthesia. Since I code urology, I know bupkis about anesthesia, so I figured I'd appeal to those who know to provide the correct code for the orders. Please and thank you!
 
Hi there, 50433 crosswalks to anesthesia code 00860 Anesthesia for extraperitoneal procedures in lower abdomen, including urinary tract; not otherwise specified.
 
Awesome! Thank you! I wasn't sure that was correct and didn't want to give bad information.
