What 00902 covers
Typical cases include operative treatment of hemorrhoids, anal fissures, and anal fistulas. An anesthesiologist or CRNA reports the anesthesia service for surgery involving the anus or rectum.
Select 00902 for anorectal operations rather than radical perineal procedures (00904) or transurethral procedures (the applicable code in that group). The operative report should identify the anorectal procedure and site; the anesthesia record should support the practitioner’s care and anesthesia start and end times. The code has 5 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. Time starts when the practitioner begins preparing the patient for anesthesia and ends when the practitioner is no longer in personal attendance and the patient can safely be placed under postoperative care.

00902 billing questions
When should I choose 00902 instead of 00904?
Use 00902 for anesthesia for anorectal surgery, such as procedures involving the anus or rectum. Code 00904 is for anesthesia for radical perineal procedures.
Does 00902 cover transurethral surgery?
No. Use the applicable transurethral anesthesia code for transurethral surgery. Code 00910 is for transurethral procedures not otherwise specified.
How are anesthesia units calculated for 00902?
The code has 5 base units. Medicare adds time units to the base units and multiplies the total by the anesthesia conversion factor for the payment locality.
What times should the anesthesia record support?
Record anesthesia time in minutes, beginning when the practitioner starts preparing the patient for anesthesia and ending when the practitioner is no longer in personal attendance and the patient can safely be placed under postoperative care.
What should the operative and anesthesia records identify?
The operative report should support that the operation involved the anus or rectum and identify the procedure and site. The anesthesia record should support the practitioner’s care and anesthesia time.
How does Medicare handle medically directed anesthesia?
When an anesthesiologist medically directs a CRNA, Medicare pays each practitioner 50% of the allowance for the personally performed service.
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.
