What 01400 covers
This service covers anesthesia for open or arthroscopic surgery involving the knee joint, including arthroscopic meniscal or ligament procedures and other open joint operations. An anesthesiologist or CRNA provides and reports the anesthesia, commonly in a hospital or ambulatory surgery center; the surgeon reports the operative procedure separately.
Select 01400 for knee-joint operations other than total knee arthroplasty or disarticulation at the knee. The anesthesia record should identify the operation and approach and document anesthesia start and end times; the operative report should support the procedure and knee site. The code carries 4 base units, and Medicare payment is (base units + time units) multiplied by the locality’s anesthesia conversion factor. Anesthesia time runs from when the practitioner begins preparing the patient for anesthesia until personal attendance ends and the patient can safely be placed under postoperative care; minutes convert to 15-minute time units, calculated to one decimal place.

01400 billing questions
When should 01400 be used instead of 01402?
Use 01400 for other open or arthroscopic knee-joint procedures. Use 01402 for anesthesia during total knee arthroplasty.
Does 01400 cover knee disarticulation?
No. Anesthesia for disarticulation at the knee is reported with 01404.
What should the records show?
The anesthesia record should support the knee operation and approach and document anesthesia start and end times. The operative report should identify the procedure and knee site.
How are anesthesia units calculated for 01400?
The code has 4 base units. Medicare adds anesthesia time units and multiplies the total by the anesthesia conversion factor for the payment locality.
Is 01400 the code for anesthesia during knee cast work?
No. Anesthesia for knee-joint cast application, removal, or repair is described by 01420.
Is the surgeon’s knee procedure included in 01400?
No. 01400 reports the anesthesia service; the surgeon reports the operative procedure separately.
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.
