New iPhone Application for Anesthesiologists
Date:7/8/2009

reg; database which links each CPT code to the appropriate CPT anesthesia code and base unit value. A base unit value is a number that reflects the complexity of the procedure and is also required for billing purposes.

GasCoder combines both the CPT and Crosswalk databases into a searchable file that can be accessed on the iPhone or iPod touch. The user is able to enter search words from the procedure using the virtual keyboard. GasCoder searches the entire CPT database and presents a list of all matching entries, with the matching words (or parts of words) highlighted for easier review. The user next selects the desired listing which best describes the surgical procedure by touching the device's screen. GasCoder then accesses the 2009 Crosswalk database to retrieve and display the correct CPT and CPT Anesthesia codes, as well as their descriptions and the base unit value for the procedure. GasCoder also includes many commonly used medical abbreviations. For instance, the user need only enter "ORIF" instead of typing "Open Reduction and Internal Fixation," making finding the correct codes quicker and easier. A list of the abbreviations is included on the information page of the program.

GasCoder went on sale in March, 2009, on the Apple App Store. The program retails for $149. Rebates are available for group purchases. GasCoder will be shown to the anesthesia community at the Annual American Society of Anesthesiologists meeting in New Orleans on October 17-21, 2009.
