Medicare allowed amount for participating (non-QP) physicians, before deductible, coinsurance and claim adjustments. Not a patient’s bill or a hospital charge.

What 01782 covers

This code covers anesthesia for phleborrhaphy, the surgical repair of a vein in the upper arm or elbow. An anesthesia practitioner reports it for the anesthesia service during the vein-repair operation; the surgeon reports the operative repair separately. The distinction is repair rather than removal of a vein, so this code does not describe phlebectomy.

Choose 01782 when the operative report establishes repair of an upper-arm or elbow vein. Code 01780 covers other venous procedures in this region; arterial procedures are represented by nearby arterial anesthesia codes. The operative report should identify the site and repair performed, and the anesthesia record should support the service and document the time endpoints. This code has 4 base units. Medicare payment is (4 base units + time units) multiplied by the locality’s anesthesia conversion factor. Time begins when the practitioner starts 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; minutes are converted to 15-minute units to one decimal place, and the conversion factor varies by locality.
