cost of anesthesia per unit
1 A 2010 survey by the American Society of Anesthesiologists showed a median of about $60 to $64 per unit. 2  So, an anesthesiologist might bill $600 for an appendectomy that takes an hour, or bill $2,500 or more for heart surgery that takes six hours.he surgeon got paid $140 and the anesthesiologist billed for 1350. After insurance I was billed $928 for 30 minuets of general anesthesia. The hospital and both doctors were in network.
