In a 2017 CPC practice exam, I came across the following question related to Anesthesia Guidelines
Which of the following procedures can be coded separately when performed by the
anesthesiologist?
a. Administration of blood
b. Monitoring of a central venous line
c. Capnography
d. Monitoring of an EKG

I answered with a B and was surprised when the answer said c, because a,c and d are all included services.
Can someone please explain the same?
