Wiki OB Anesthesia billing ?

[Spaterson]

According to Medicare how do I calculate the time units on CPT 01967?
I have a time of 384 minutes. Not sure if it should be 7 or 26. Is it one unit per hour or per 15minutes. I have been all over the Medicare website and google and I?m at a loss. Please help

Thanks

You will put the minutes in box 24G, and will indicate start & stop time in that shaded area just above where the ASA code goes in. The Medicare carrier will calculate the number of minutes per unit.
