I hope this makes sense. My doctor does lower extremity angio's, artherectomy's and stent's. E.g. 37220-37229, at the local hospital. Obviously he gets the payment as service performed in a facility setting. My question is he wants to be a share holder in an outpatient/surgery center and do his procedures there, he wants numbers for reimbursment doing it there compared to doing it @ the hospital. So on the Medicare fee schedule E.g. 37220 priced @ $2993.35 and for the performed in facility setting for physician it $427.99 (this is what he gets now). With him being a share holder @the outpatient/surgery center would his reimbursment be the $2993.35? Or are there different codes I should be looking into?
