What 01464 covers
Code 01464 is for anesthesia supporting arthroscopic surgery in the ankle or foot, where the surgeon works through small incisions with a scope rather than an open exposure. Typical cases include diagnostic joint inspection and arthroscopic treatment of joint pathology, such as removing loose material, debriding tissue, or treating an intra-articular lesion. An anesthesiologist or CRNA reports the anesthesia service in a hospital or ambulatory surgical setting; the orthopedic or podiatric surgeon reports the operative work separately.
Choose 01464 when the operative record documents arthroscopic work at the ankle or foot joint. Use 01480 for open operations in these regions and 01462 for closed procedures; Achilles tendon repair and nerve or muscle procedures have more specific anesthesia codes. The operative record should identify the site, arthroscopic approach, and procedure; the anesthesia record should document the practitioner’s personal attendance times. This code has 3 base units; Medicare calculates payment as (base units + time units) × the locality’s anesthesia conversion factor. Time is reported in minutes and converted to 15-minute units to one decimal place, from when the anesthesia practitioner begins preparing the patient until no longer in personal attendance and the patient can safely be placed under postoperative care.

01464 billing questions
When should I report 01464 instead of 01480?
Report 01464 when the ankle or foot operation is performed arthroscopically. Code 01480 is for an open procedure in the lower leg, ankle, or foot.
Does 01464 cover arthroscopy of the foot as well as the ankle?
Yes. The code covers anesthesia for arthroscopic procedures of the ankle and/or foot; the operative record should identify the site and arthroscopic approach.
How are time units calculated for 01464?
Anesthesia time is reported in minutes and converted to 15-minute units, calculated to one decimal place. Medicare payment uses the 3 base units plus time units, multiplied by the anesthesia conversion factor for the locality.
What should the anesthesia record show?
It should document the anesthesia practitioner’s time, beginning with patient preparation and ending when personal attendance ends and the patient can safely be placed under postoperative care.
How does Medicare treat medically directed anesthesia for this service?
When an anesthesiologist medically directs a CRNA, Medicare pays each 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.
