Hi all! I am having trouble discerning when my provider can charge the new moderate sedation codes. The facility that our scopes are done at uses CRNAs and not anesthesiologists. I know the CRNA does bill and I am working on getting an example from the facility that will show what codes and methods they use to bill. I have tried to get specific information from the CMS website, but I only find the list of the RVU revision for the codes that used to include moderate sedation.
I have two questions:
What would be the qualifying circumstance for 99152 vs 99156? I'm not clear on the wording for 99156.
Can my provider bill either of these two codes if the CRNA is also billing given the appropriate documentation is submitted by my provider?
Any help is really appreciated.
