• Post-postoperative visits (CPT codes 99211-99215, 99231-99233);
• Anesthetic or analgesic administration;
• Local anesthesia during surgery;
• Monitoring of electrocardiograms (EKGs), pulse breathing, blood pressure, electroencephalogram and other neurological monitoring;
• Monitoring of left ventricular or valve function via transesophageal echocardiogram (TEE);
