Administration of Anaesthetics
When a medical practitioner administers an anaesthetic in connection with a dental procedure prescribed for the payment of Medicare benefits (and the procedure has been performed by an eligible dental practitioner), Medicare benefits are payable for the administration of the anaesthetic on the same basis as if the procedure had been rendered by a medical practitioner.
To ascertain the Schedule fee for the anaesthetic, medical practitioners should refer to Group T10 - Relative Value Guide for Anaesthesia - of the Medicare Benefits Schedule Book.
