Anesthesia CPT Code Modifiers
Modifer | |
Healthy individual with minimal anesthesia risk. | P1 |
Mild systemic disease. | P2 |
Severe systemic disease with intermittent threat of morbidity or mortality. | P3 |
Severe systemic illness with ongoing threat of morbidity or mortality. | P4 |
Pre-morbid condition with high risk of demise unless procedural intervention is performed. | P5 |
Description | Modifer |
Anesthesia HCPCS Modifier – used to indicate certain deep, complex, complicated or markedly invasive surgical procedures. This modifier is to be applied to the following anesthesia CPT codes only: 00100, 00300, 00400, 00160, 00532 and 00920. | G8 |
Anesthesia HCPCS Modifier – represents “a history of severe cardiopulmonary disease,” and should be utilized whenever the procedural list feels the need for MAC due to a history of advanced cardiopulmonary disease. The documentation of this clinical decision making process and the need for additional monitoring must be clearly documented in the medical record. | G9 |
