Hello,

I have been in the anesthesia billing industry for almost 10 years and we have never quite had a good reference for how to bill split cases. (One provider relieving another)

How would this be represented on a claim for best practice? Please provide references if possible.
I cannot find anything helpful from reputable sources aside from Medi-Cal which is fairly specific but would only apply to that insurance.:confused:
Thank you for your time!

My understanding is the one who puts the patient under gets to bill and the splitting up after payment is done internally. No real sources i could either find either, just a department created policy from an anesthesia group in Florida. starts in the middle of page 7. Seems like it might be up to the office to implement a policy vs a coding rule.
