anesthesia

I took a test recently and one of the questions was about anesthesia the code I got and the "P" modifier I also got, but it also asked for a modifier for the provider type??? That I did not get, anyone know what they were looking for?

Not sure if this is what they were asking for...this is from our local Medicare carrier, WPS.

Anesthesia Modifier

It sounds like they wanted the A, G or Q modifiers that designate types of providers involved on the case. MD, CRNA, medical direction of X number of cases & other data.
