Team,
My company is tasked with billing anesthesia charges for a multi-specialty practice to a wide range of payers. We are out of network by choice. When billing the charges, we use modifier 51 for all J codes as well as the drug administration charge. All codes excluding the anesthesia service are being globalized into the 01??? anesthesia code. Is there a more appropriate way of billing these charges.
