Anesthesia For A Lower Bowel Telescope Exam

Nationwide rates for HCPCS 00811

Covers the anesthesia care for an examination of the lower bowel with a flexible telescope when the examination is being done to investigate or treat a problem, rather than as a routine check in someone without symptoms. The anesthesia professional gives the sedative or anesthetic, monitors breathing, heart rhythm and blood pressure throughout, and looks after recovery. The specialist performing the examination charges separately for that work.
