Moderate Sedation Changes CPT® 2017

2017 MODERATE SEDATION CHANGE CODES LIST

The 2017 code set revises this code by removing moderate sedation, also called conscious sedation, from this procedure. Use of moderate (conscious) sedation is no longer considered an inherent (bundled) / part of the procedure and can now be reported separately.
Prior to the 2017 change, reimbursement for moderate (conscious) sedation was built into the compensation for the procedure as the anesthesia was administered by the same physician or other qualified health care professional who performed the procedure. This code included conscious sedation as an inherent part of providing the service and was not separately reportable. It has been recognized that practice patterns for some procedures have changed, with anesthesia increasingly reported separately by a provider separate from the one who performs the procedure. For this reason, CPT® 2017 unbundles moderate (conscious) sedation from hundreds of codes.
​To report moderate (conscious) sedation when provided by the same physician or other qualified health care professional who performs the procedure, see new CPT® 2017 codes 99151, 99152, or 99153. To report moderate (conscious) sedation services provided by a physician or other qualified health care professional other than the provider performing the procedure, see new CPT® 2017 codes 99155, 99156, or 99157. For 2017, existing CPT® codes for moderate sedation, 99143-99150, have been deleted.
