Specialized billing support for anesthesiologists and CRNAs — built around base units, time units, and modifier-heavy claims that general billers often get wrong.
Get a Free Billing ReviewPrecision Billing for a Highly Technical Specialty
Anesthesia claims depend on accurate base unit values, time tracking, physical status modifiers, and payer-specific conversion factors. A single missed modifier or miscalculated time unit can mean a reduced payment or an outright denial. Our anesthesia billing team works exclusively with the coding logic this specialty demands, so your practice gets paid accurately and on time, every time.
Why Anesthesia Billing Needs a Specialized Approach
General medical billers often apply standard CPT logic to anesthesia claims, which leads to underbilling, rejected claims, and lost revenue. Anesthesia billing works differently.
Unit-Based Payment
Payment is calculated using base units plus time units, not a flat procedure fee.
Precise Time Tracking
Anesthesia time must be documented and converted precisely, down to the minute.
Modifier Accuracy
Physical status modifiers (P1–P6) and qualifying circumstances directly affect reimbursement.
Care Team Rules
Medical direction and supervision billing requires specific modifier combinations for CRNA teams.
Variable Conversion Factors
Conversion factors vary by payer, region, and contract, making manual calculation error-prone.

Get Started TodayFrequently Asked Questions
How is anesthesia billing different from other specialty billing?
Anesthesia is billed using base units and time units rather than a flat fee per procedure, and it requires specific modifiers tied to patient risk and supervision arrangements — details general billing teams often overlook.
Do you handle CRNA and medical direction billing?
Yes. We apply the correct modifier combinations for medically directed, medically supervised, and independently performed CRNA cases.
What happens if a claim is denied?
We review the denial reason, correct the underlying issue, and resubmit the claim promptly, while flagging the pattern to prevent repeat denials.
Can you work with our existing practice management software?
In most cases, yes. Our team adapts to commonly used anesthesia and practice management systems to minimize disruption to your workflow.
