Common anesthesia procedures and what Louisiana Medicaid pays
A curated sample of recognizable procedures from the 3-code schedule. Rates are the state's published fee-for-service amounts; the percentage compares each rate with the national Medicare amount for the same code.
| Code | Procedure | Louisiana rate | % of Medicare |
|---|---|---|---|
| 01961 | Anesthesia for cesarean delivery | $249.39* | -- |
| 01967 | Anesthesia for planned vaginal delivery (epidural) | $311.84* | -- |
Published Medicaid fee-for-service schedule amounts, not a coverage or eligibility guarantee. Managed-care plan rates can differ. Where no prior-authorization flag is shown, the state does not publish one. Rows marked * show the schedule's representative published variant. Most states price anesthesia PER BASE UNIT (the code's base units plus time units, multiplied by the amount shown), not as a flat fee - a published value here is usually the per-unit conversion amount.

Frequently asked questions
What does Louisiana Medicaid pay for anesthesia services?
Louisiana Medicaid publishes 3 anesthesia procedure rates effective 2026 on its fee-for-service schedule. The schedule covers anesthesia base codes, which most states price per base unit. The table on this page shows published rates for common procedures; the complete all-codes schedule is available as a CSV download with a ProviderSignal Rates subscription.
How do Louisiana's anesthesia rates compare with Medicare?
Most anesthesia codes in this category have no direct national Medicare comparator (Medicare prices these services through different mechanisms), so a median comparison is not published here.
Do anesthesia services need prior authorization in Louisiana?
Louisiana does not publish prior-authorization indicators on this fee schedule, so PA requirements must be confirmed through the state's provider manual or portal. Absence of a flag here means "not published", never "no PA required".
Where do these rates come from?
Directly from Louisiana's published Medicaid fee-for-service schedule (effective 2026), collected and normalized by ProviderSignal across all 50 states + DC. Rates are re-collected on a rolling schedule and this page updates automatically. Procedure descriptions are ProviderSignal's own plain-language labels or public-domain CMS text.
