Does anyone know the specifics of the new medicare adjustments to payments for endo's? Medicare is apparently refusing to pay for anything that is not a mac. Apparently there is a built in charge for sedation with the physician charge for the procedure and they will refuse to pay if an anesthesia provider submits to be reimbursed? Anyone?

Meaning that reimbursement goes to the Gastro and NOT the anesthesia provider? It's a group charge?

Yikes. What if patient requires GA?
