REVISED 05/17/2010
EFFECTIVE 01/01/2010 - 05/31/2010

The chart below lists the FSY 2010 anesthesia participating, non-participating, and limiting charge conversion factors (CFs) effective for dates of service January 1, 2010, through May 31, 2010.

For physician directed anesthesia services provided in 2010, the allowance for both the physician and the Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist (CRNA) is 50 percent of the allowance for the anesthesia service if performed by the physician or CRNA alone.

The Medicare approved amount for an anesthesia service is calculated as follows: (Base Units + Time Units) x Conversion Factor = Approved Amount

To determine the medically directed rate, multiply the approved amount by 50%.
