Abstract


Sir,

In corporate hospitals, the anesthesiologists are either salaried i.e. they get fixed remunerations for the clinical work that they do in operation theatre and ICU or they are on a fee for service basis i.e. the department generates income by billing for every case that gets anesthetized. Billing is done for procedures (central venous lines, arterial line, emergency intubation) transportation of critically ill patients, monitored anesthesia care, PAC (pre-anesthesia check-up ) etc.[1] The departmental members involved in services are required to write it manually on the billing sheet provided in the case sheet .
