So i'm chillin here in the ICU and have finished a day with 12 procedures - an LP a couple of central lines, a few A-lines, etc. How much would a typical procedure like those above cost a department to actually perform (materials, etc), and how much do ED's charge for those procedures.
What is the reimbursement for typical procedures and how is it factored into our pay? Is it incorporated into our hourly rate based on average or do we get additional procedure "bonuses?" Do we get a combination of both? I'm just curious. A nurse informed me that the charge for Swan monitoring is around $3-4000 . If that's the case, I just had a super bonus day!
