cpt code and description



J0702 – Injection, betamethasone acetate 3mg and betamethasone sodium phosphate 3mg


J1030 – Injection, methylprednisolone acetate, 40 mg



J1100 – Injection, dexamethasone sodium phosphate, 1mg 


j3301 INJECTION TRIAMCINOLONE ACETONIDE NOS 10 MG



Example#1: J1100-Dexamethasone, 1 mg Your bottle says 4 mg/ml

If you use 0.25 cc (1 mg) = 1 Unit
If you use 0.5 cc (2 mg) = 2 Units
If you use 0.75 cc (3 mg) = 3 Units
If you use 1.0 cc (4 mg) = 4 Units

Example#2 J1030 methylprednisolone acetate, 40 mg (Depo-Medrol)

Your bottle says 40 mg/ml

If you use 0.25 cc 10 mg = 1 Unit
If you use 0.5 cc 20 mg = 1 Unit
(J1020=methylprednisolone acetate, 20 mg )
If you use 0.75 cc 30 mg = 1 Unit
If you use 1.0 cc 40 mg = 1 Unit

Example#3 J3301 triamcinolone acetonide, (Kenalog-10, Kenalog-40) per 10 mg

Your bottle says Kenalog 40 =40 mg/ml

If you use 0.25 cc 10 mg/40 mg = 1 Unit
If you use 0.5 cc 20 mg/40 mg = 2 Units
If you use 0.75 cc 30 mg/40 mg = 3 Units
If you use 1.0 cc 40 mg/40 mg = 4 Units

The CPT code J3301, Kenalog injection is a good example of an NOC code that must be used. Read the user manual for instructions for submitting NDC numbers. You need to change your insurance layout and enter the NDC number using the format specified in the user manual.

To report the Kenalog, use the HCPCS code J3301. This J code is for triamcinolone acetonide per 10mg. The instructions for this code state to use for Kenalog- 10, Kenalog-40, Triam-A. This code may be billed in multiple units. Thus, if 20mg were used, report J3301 with 2 in the units box (box 24G on the CMS -1500 form).

Example#4 J0702 betamethasone acetate and betamethasone phosphate, per 3 mg

(Celestone Soluspan 6 mg/ml)

If you use 0.25 cc 1.5 mg/6 mg = 1 Unit
If you use 0.5 cc 3 mg/6 mg = 1 Unit
If you use 0.75 cc 4.5 mg/6 mg = 1 Unit
If you use 1.0 cc 6 mg/6 mg = 2 Units

Units calculation example

The following are key points to remember when billing Medicare for rituximab (J9310):

• J9310 is defined in the HCPCS manual as: Injection, rituximab, 100 mg

• One (1) unit represents 100 mg of rituximab ordered/administered per patient

• Rituximab should be billed based on units not the total number of milligrams

o For example, if the quantity administered is 200 mg and the description of the drug code is 100 mg, the units billed should be two (2).

The following are key points to remember when billing Medicare for bevacizumab (J9035 or C9257):

• C9257 is defined in the HCPCS manual as: Injection, bevacizumab, 0.25 mg

• J9035 is defined in the HCPCS manual as: Injection, bevacizumab, 10 mg

• One (1) unit represents 10 mg of (J9035) or 0.25 mg (C9257) of bevacizumab ordered/administered per patient

• Bevacizumab should be billed based on unit not the total number of milligrams

o For example, if the quantity administered is 300mg and the description of the drug code is 10 mg, the units billed should be thirty (30).

Supplemental Information Related to Reporting Drugs

The following serves to clarify billing guidelines and provide examples of proper billing with a  singledose vial and discarded drug billing:

• Providers and hospitals are reminded to ensure that amounts of drugs administered to patients are accurately reported in terms of the dosage specified in the long descriptors for the applicable HCPCS codes. This is because the short descriptors are limited to 28 characters so they do not always capture the complete description of the drug.

• When submitting Medicare claims, units should be reported in multiples of the dosage included in
the long HCPCS descriptor. If the dosage given is not a multiple of the number provided in the HCPCS code description, the provider shall round up to the nearest whole number in order to
express the number as a multiple.

• If the provider must discard the remainder of a single-use vial or other package after administering the prescribed dosage of any given drug, Medicare may cover the amount of the drug discarded along with the amount administered. The following elements must be followed in order for the discarded amount to be covered.

1. The vial must be a single-use vial. Multi-use vials are not subject to payment for any discarded amounts of the drug.

2. The units billed must correspond with the smallest dose (vial) available for purchase from the manufacturer(s) that could provide the appropriate dose for the patient code is 10 mg, the units billed should be thirty (30).

Physician Drug List by Name

The following table provides a listing of valid physician drug codes sorted alphabetically by name. To view this list sorted numerically, refer to Section H.3, Physician Drug List by Procedure Code.

Why is UnitedHealthcare enforcing the NDC on professional drug claims?

A. We are enforcing this requirement as part of our effort to reduce overall costs to the health care system. NDCs are the industry standard identifier for drugs and provide full transparency to the medication administered. They accurately identify the manufacturer, drug name, dosage, strength, package size and quantity

What drug codes require the NDC to be submitted on professional claims effective Jan. 1, 2017?

A. The following drug codes are required:

** J codes, including miscellaneous and unlisted drug codes

** Drug-related CPT codes, including miscellaneous and unlisted drug codes, immunizations, Synagis, and Immune globulin

** Drug-related Q codes, including miscellaneous and unlisted drug codes, Contrast

** Drug-related S codes including Testopel

** Drug-related A codes, including miscellaneous and unlisted drug codes, and adiopharmaceuticals

The NDC will not be enforced for G codes and P codes

 Where is the NDC located?

A. The NDC is found on the prescription drug label of the drug container (e.g. vial, bottle or tube). The NDC is a universal number that identifies a drug or related drug item. The NDC number consists of 11 digits with hyphens separating the number into three segments in a 5-4-2 format. The first five digits identify the manufacturer of the drug and are assigned by the FDA. The remaining digits are assigned by the manufacturer and identify the specific product and package size.

Sometimes the NDC on the label does not include 11 digits. If this occurs, it will be necessary to add a leading zero to the appropriate section to create a 5-4-2 configuration (i.e.66733-0948-23 in the following sample). A valid NDC without spaces or hyphens should be placed on the medical claim. The NDC submitted must be the actual valid NDC number on the container from which the medication was administered.

NDC Unit of Measure (UOM)

UOM Description General Guidelines

F2 International unit International units will mainly be used when billing for Factor VIII-Antihemophilic Factors

GR Gram Grams are usually used when an ointment, cream, inhaler, or bulk powder in a jar are dispensed. This unit of measure will primarily be used in the retail pharmacy setting and not for physician-administered drug billing.

ML Milliliter If a drug is supplied in a vial in liquid form, bill in millimeters.

UN Unit If a drug is supplied in a vial in powder form, and must be reconstituted before administration, bill each vial (unit/each) used.

IV Infusions and Injections, including Chemotherapy Administration – J code Guide – Medicaid

When a visit to the physician’s office is for administration of a medication or chemotherapy agent, only the provider administered drug (“J-code”) for the medication and the administration code (96400-96549) will be paid.  An office visit will not be paid.  The administration fee covers the skill, evaluation, and management required to administer the chemotherapy agent.  However, when there are significant separately identifiable services, those services must be reported using
modifier 25.  Reporting the E/M service with modifier 25 requires review of supportive documentation for significant separately identifiable service beyond the E/M services expected with chemotherapy administration.

 
When administering multiple infusions, injections, or combinations, only one initial service code should be reported, unless protocol requires that two separate IV sites must be used.  If an injection or infusion is of a subsequent or concurrent nature, even if it is the first such service within a group of services, then a subsequent or concurrent code from the appropriate section should be reported.

Hydration therapy requires a diagnosis and medical record documentation supporting the therapy for electrolyte imbalance and/or dehydration for reimbursement coverage.
 
IV line flush between drugs is considered part of the drug administration service and not reimbursed separately.  

One payment for a heparin flush is covered at the conclusion of the infusion.


EXAMPLE NDC BILLING SCENARIO

To assist you with making the transition to billing with NDCs, we will be providing some example scenarios based on inquiries we are receiving from providers. This month’s scenario features a high-volume J code.

What was administered?

In our sample scenario, a patient receives 3 mg betamethasone acetate and betamethasone phosphate in the physician’s office. Code J0704 – injection, betamethasone sodium phosphate, per 4mg was deleted effective Dec. 31, 2010. Code J0702 – CELESTONE®  SOLUSPAN®  Injectable  Suspension is a sterile aqueous suspension containing 3 mg per milliliter betamethasone, as betamethasone sodium phosphate, and 3 mg per milliliter betamethasone acetate. Since this is the drug that was administered, then code J0702 is appropriate.

What’s on the package label?

Here are some examples of NDC information that you may see when you are preparing to bill with HCPCS code J0702 betamethasone acetate and betamethasone phosphate, per 3 mg:

• 00517-0720-01 6MG/ML SUSP Unit of Measure 5ML

• 54868-0206-00 6MG/ML SUSP Unit of Measure 5ML

• 58016-9191-01 6MG/ML SUSP Unit of Measure 5ML



What to include on the claim:

The initial dosage of CELESTONE SOLUSPAN Injectable Suspension may vary from 0.25 to 9.0 mg per day depending on the specific disease entity being treated. For the patient in our sample scenario,  you will use the NDC on the package label (e.g., NDC is 00517-0720-01, which is CELESTONE SOLUSPAN 6mg/ml in suspension form). There are 5 milliliters (ML) per vial. You will bill J0702 (betamethasone acetate and betamethasone phosphate, per 3 mg) with the NDC unit of measure as ML, and NDC units as 0.5 milliliters (ML0.5) for one 3mg dose.

Insufficient Documentation – 80% of Total Errors

Reasons for errors:

* Billed is CPT J1030 and 20610 – Methylprednisolone 40 MG injection. Missing order and documentation of Methylprednisolone 40 MG injection was administered. Received a partially illegible office visit note that list B-12 as the injection, and office visit notes.


INJECTION SUPPLY

* Injected supply billed with HCPCS “J” codes

* Do NOT bill for the local anesthetic (lidocaine, etc.)

* J1020-30 methylprednisolone acetate (Depo-Medrol)

* J1094 dexamethasone acetate (Decadron LA)

* J1100 dexamethasone sodium phosphate

* J3301-3 triamcinolone (Kenalog)

* Code based upon total mg applied on date of service; even if applied over multiple sites

* Use applicable modifiers to reflect separate sites

* LT, RT, -59 Modifier


What information do I need to have ready before converting HCPCS/CPT units to NDC units ?

Before you can fill out the claim to bill for a drug, you will need to know the following information:

* Amount of drug to be billed

* HCPCS/CPT code

* HCPCS/CPT code description

* Number of HCPCS/CPT units

* NDC (11-digit billing format)

* NDC description

* NDC unit of measure

Consider the following example for Ciprofloxacin IV 1200 MG (1 day supply):

Amount of drug to be billed:

1200 MG

HCPCS/CPT code:

J0744

HCPCS/CPT code description:

Ciprofloxacin for intravenous infusion, 200 MG

Number of HCPCS/CPT units

6

NDC (11-digit billing format):

00409-4765-86

NDC description:

Ciprofloxacin IV SOLN 200 MG/20 ML

NDC unit of measure

Non-Facility Injection Services

E/M services provided in a non-facility setting are considered an inherent component for providing an injection service.

CPT indicates these services typically require direct supervision for any or all purposes of patient assessment, provision of consent, safety oversight, and intra-service supervision of staff. When a diagnostic and therapeutic Injection procedure is performed in a POS other than 19, 21, 22, 23, 24, 26, 51, 52, and 61 and an E/M service is provided on the same date of service, by the Same Individual Physician or Other Health Care Professional only the appropriate therapeutic and diagnostic injection(s) will be reimbursed and the EM service is not separately reimbursed.

If a significant, separately identifiable EM service is performed unrelated to the physician work (injection preparation and disposal, patient assessment, provision of consent, safety oversight, supervision of staff, etc.) required for the injection service, modifier 25 may be reported for the E/M service in addition to 96372-96379. If the E/M service does not meet the requirement for a significant separately identifiable service, then modifier 25 would not be reported and a separate E/M service would not be reimbursed.

Medicaid Guidelines on INJECTIONS

Outpatient hospital providers who bill physician administered drugs (injectable and non-injectable) separately to Medicaid must report the National Drug Code (NDC) and its supplemental information in addition to the corresponding procedure code (CPT or HCPCS) to assist Medicaid in collecting rebates.

Reporting of the NDC is not required for claims that are considered packaged or bundled (Medicare Pay Status = N) under the Outpatient Prospective Payment System (OPPS). Providers can report decimals if they are part of the NDC supplemental information.Coverage of a physician administered drug (except an immunization) is limited to a drug product from a
manufacturer who has a signed rebate agreement with the CMS. A current listing of the rebate manufacturers can be found on the CMS website. (Refer to the Directory Appendix for website information.) Providers are required to review the website for any changes. MDHHS will not provide an updated listing of rebate manufacturers.

The NDC information must be reported on all Medicare crossover claims.

Do not recode injectable drugs from a national procedure code covered by Medicare or other payers to a NOC code when billing MDHHS unless MDHHS does not cover that procedure code. When MDHHS covers the procedure code, the same procedure code must be submitted to MDHHS that was submitted to the other payer to ensure proper reimbursement.

When billing a code with a dose-specific description, enter the appropriate quantity. If the dose specified in the code description is exceeded, use modifier 22 and document the actual dosage given in the appropriate segment or form locator.

If an injectable or non-injectable drug is obtained at a lower than normal cost (e.g., through 340B program), the lower than normal cost (actual acquisition cost) must be reported on the claim in place of the cost of charge.

Invalid or missing NDC information or an NDC by a manufacturer who does not have a signed rebate agreement with CMS will reject at the claim line level.
