Anesthesia for a Procedure Inside the Skull

Massachusetts rates for HCPCS 00212

Covers the anesthesia care given during a procedure carried out inside the skull. The anesthesia clinician keeps the patient unconscious and completely still, manages blood pressure and breathing tightly because both affect pressure and blood flow within the head, and monitors the patient throughout and into recovery. The surgeon's work on the brain or its coverings is a separate service and is billed separately.
