How do the different levels of facility fee work? I see that there are 1 through 9 levels of fees from medicare fee schedule. Do you need an anesthesiologist on staff to get ASC rating with Medicare?
algosdoc said:All pain injections are a level 1. Anesthesiologists are not required for an ASC, but the size of the ASC OR is determined whether local cases, MAC cases, or general cases are to be performed there.
PainDr said:$333 per case? It was my understanding that it was $333 per procedure. It doesn't seem right that a single level transforaminal ESI would be reimbursed the same amount as a 5 level medial branch RF.
here we go again about the 5 level crap...didn't we address that already in another thread?
