Document records 12:34 is the start of medication being given by RN. At 1:04 the CRNA starts the Propofol and ends at 1:20. The reason stated is below. Do I bill under the CRNA using the total time 12:34 thru 13:20? Or am I only allowed to bill for the time the CRNA was actually involved? Thanks for any insight, it would be appreciated.
Procedure started using RN attended conscious sedation. CRNA called to provide sedation services after start of procedure due to difficult sedation or procedural concerns.
