What 00750 covers

Code 00750 covers anesthesia for repair of an upper abdominal hernia when the hernia type does not fall into a more specifically classified hernia-repair category. Anesthesia practitioners furnish and report the service during the operation, commonly in a hospital or ambulatory surgical setting. The surgeon’s operative report identifies the hernia site and type and describes the repair; the anesthesia record documents the anesthesia service and time.

Select 00752 for lumbar, ventral, or incisional hernia repair, 00754 for omphalocele repair, and 00756 for diaphragmatic hernia repair. Code 00700 describes anesthesia for other upper anterior abdominal wall procedures, not this hernia-repair category. The operative documentation should establish the hernia’s site and type and what was repaired, while the anesthesia record supports the reported minutes. Code 00750 has 4 base units; Medicare payment is (base units + time units) × the locality’s anesthesia conversion factor. Anesthesia time is reported in minutes and converted to 15-minute units to one decimal place, from the start of anesthesia preparation until the practitioner is no longer in personal attendance and the patient can safely be placed in postoperative care; conversion factors vary by locality.

Where these rates come from

FeeBase calculates base physician payments from CMS work, practice-expense and malpractice RVUs, adjusted by each locality’s geographic indexes and the conversion factor. Services without a published rate are labeled, never given a made-up amount. Amounts are Medicare allowed amounts before claim adjustments: not a patient’s bill or a commercial rate.
