Firefighters may receive amounts that are designated as expenses for transportation, equipment, clothing, etc. In general, these are treated as taxable wages. However, if the amounts are paid under an accountable plan, they may be excluded from wages and no tax reporting is required.
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.
1 The average price for anesthesia can start at $600 for a surgical procedure that can last anywhere from 30 minutes to 1 hour. 2  Some doctors would charge for the professional fee separately from the total cost of the surgery. 3  The cost for the professional fee usually depends on the skill and experience of the doctor. Since this procedure will be more than likely covered under your health insurance plan, you should only have to pay a small portion of this amount. 2  A simple surgery such as a shoulder arthroscopy procedure can cost anywhere from $5,000 to $8,000.
