Deep Sedation

Date: Mar 17, 2025

Question:

What CPT code should be reported for a cardiac ICU physician who is credentialed to administer deep sedation? Some of the procedures that our physicians are performing and using deep sedation are ECMO decannulation, chest closures, and line placements/adjustments. We were looking at CPT codes 00100-01999 since our providers are credentialed to perform deep sedation. We are pro fee.
