Anesthesia Units Calculator
Anesthesia cases (00100-01999) are paid in anesthesia units, not work RVUs. Enter a code, the anesthesia time and the physical status to get base units, time units (one per 15 minutes), modifying units and a Medicare dollar estimate at the 2026 anesthesia conversion factor.
What is included
- 2026 CMS base units for every anesthesia code, including add-on codes
- Time units from total minutes or start and end times, with Medicare exact or round-up rounding
- Physical status P3-P5 modifying units and QK, QX, QY and AD payment modifiers
- A work RVU calculator for separately billed blocks, lines, TEE and critical care
