CPT 01680
Priced using anesthesia methodology
01680 · PFS Q2 2024 · Historical
See your local estimate for a sample 90-minute case.
CPT 01680 is an anesthesia code, so Medicare has no single national rate: payment is (base units + time units) × the locality's anesthesia conversion factor, so the amount varies by locality and case length (Q2 2024 release).
Amount evidence: base units, time units, and the locality conversion factor, shown in the estimate. The PFS row shows this code is priced as anesthesia.

Why is there no national PFS amount for 01680?
Its status indicator is J (anesthesia). Medicare prices this under the anesthesia formula—(base units + time units) × the locality anesthesia conversion factor—not the standard RVU formula. Choose a locality to see that factor.

The anesthesia estimate uses the base units, case length, and locality conversion factor shown beside it. The PFS file shows this code is priced as anesthesia. Past releases are never edited, so these sources stay valid after CMS publishes a newer one. Our methodology explains sourcing, parsing, versioning, and how we cross-check claims before we publish them.
