When reporting anesthesia services for two procedures performed on the same patient during the same operative session, you typically use the base units for each procedure and then add any time units if applicable. The total unit value is calculated by summing the base units and any additional time units, applying the appropriate modifiers if necessary.

Always ensure that the documentation supports the services provided for accurate reimbursement.
