Anesthesia For Casting The Lower Leg

Nationwide rates for HCPCS 01490

Covers the anesthesia care while a cast on the lower leg is applied, changed, repaired or removed. It is used when the process would otherwise be too painful, or when the patient cannot keep still — commonly a young child, or an adult whose broken bone has to be held in position while the cast sets. The orthopedic work is charged separately.
