What 01924 covers
This service covers anesthesia for therapeutic procedures performed through image-guided access to arteries, typically in an angiography or interventional radiology suite. Examples include peripheral arterial angioplasty, stent placement, and arterial embolization when the procedure does not fit a more specifically coded arterial site. An anesthesiologist or CRNA reports the anesthesia service for the patient undergoing the intervention.
Use this code for arterial targets outside the more specific categories for the carotid artery and for intracranial, intracardiac, or aortic procedures; it is not the code for therapeutic venous interventions. The anesthesia record and operative report should identify the artery treated, the therapeutic procedure, and the anesthesia practitioner’s attendance and times. Medicare assigns 5 base units; payment is (base units plus time units) multiplied by the locality’s anesthesia conversion factor. Time is reported in minutes and converted to 15-minute units to one decimal place, starting when the practitioner begins preparing the patient for anesthesia and ending when the practitioner is no longer personally attending and the patient can safely be placed under postoperative care.
This summary was written with AI assistance from CMS physician fee schedule data and checked against the CMS billing rules shown here. Rates on this page come directly from CMS files.

01924 billing questions
When should 01924 be chosen over 01925 or 01926?
Use 01925 for therapeutic interventions involving the carotid artery and 01926 for the specified intracranial, intracardiac, or aortic procedures. Use 01924 for other therapeutic arterial interventions.
How does 01924 differ from anesthesia for venous intervention?
01924 applies to therapeutic procedures involving arteries. Anesthesia for a therapeutic interventional radiology procedure involving veins is represented by 01930.
What should the records identify?
The operative report should establish the treated artery and therapeutic intervention. The anesthesia record should support the practitioner’s service and the start and end of anesthesia time.
How are Medicare anesthesia units calculated for 01924?
The code has 5 base units. Medicare combines those with time units and multiplies the sum by the anesthesia conversion factor for the payment locality.
How is anesthesia time converted to units?
Report anesthesia time in minutes; CMS converts it to 15-minute units, calculated to one decimal place. Time runs from when the practitioner begins preparing the patient for anesthesia until the practitioner is no longer personally attending and the patient can safely be placed under postoperative care.
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.
