Anesthesia HCPCS Modifier – represents “a history of severe cardiopulmonary disease,” and should be utilized whenever the procedural list feels the need for MAC due to a history of advanced cardiopulmonary disease. The documentation of this clinical decision making process and the need for additional monitoring must be clearly documented in the medical record.
