The Current Procedural Terminology (CPT) codebook contains the following information and direction for the Chemotherapy and Other Highly Complex Drug or Highly Complex Biological Agent Administration CPT® codes: “Chemotherapy Administration codes 96401-96549 apply to parenteral administration of non-radionuclide anti-neoplastic drugs; and also to anti-neoplastic agents provided for treatment of non-cancer diagnoses (e.g. cyclophosphamide for auto-immune conditions) or to substances such as certain monoclonal antibody agents, and other biologic response modifiers. The highly complex infusion of chemotherapy or other drug or biologic agents requires physician or other qualified health care professional work and/or clinical staff monitoring well beyond that of therapeutic drug agents (96360-96379) because the incidence of severe adverse patient reactions are typically greater. These services can be provided by any physician or other qualified health care professional. Chemotherapy services are typically highly complex and require direct supervision for any or all purposes of patient assessment, provision of consent, safety oversight, and intraservice supervision of staff. Typically, such chemotherapy services require advanced practice training and competency for staff who provide these services; special considerations for preparation, dosage, or disposal; and commonly, these services entail significant patient risk and frequent monitoring. Examples are frequent changes in the infusion rate, prolonged presence of the nurse administering the solution for patient monitoring and infusion adjustments, and frequent conferring with the physician or other qualified health care professional about these issues. When performed to facilitate the infusion of injection, preparation of chemotherapy agent (s), highly complex agent (s), or other highly complex drugs is included and is not reported separately. To report infusions that do not require this level of complexity, see 96360-96379. Codes 96401-96402, 96409-96425, 96521-96523 are not intended to be reported by the individual physician or other qualified health care professional in the facility setting.”
Medicare has determined under Section 1861 (t) that these drugs may be paid when they are administered incident to a physician’s service and determined to be medically reasonable and necessary. Such determination of reasonable and necessary is currently left to the discretion of the Medicare Administrative Contractors (MACs). The documentation in the patient’s medical record must support the drugs as being medically reasonable and necessary.
J3358: Effective September 23, 2016, IV ustekinumab (Stelara®) should be billed with HCPCS J3590 (OPPS: C9399 for dates of service (DOS) before 04/01/2017; C9487 for DOS from 04/01/2017 to 06/30/17, Q9989 for DOS from 07/01/2017-12/31/17 and J3358 for DOS 01/01/2018 and after) for the initial IV dose of Stelara® when used for Crohn’s disease and Ulcerative Colitis and each subsequent subcutaneous dose must be billed with J3357. This IV formulation is now FDA approved for Crohn’s disease and Ulcerative Colitis. On and after July 31, 2017, both the drug and administration should be billed on the same claim with no other drugs or administration to prevent inappropriate claim rejection.
The subcutaneous or intravenous formulation of octreotide acetate is billed using HCPCS code J2354 with the JA (intravenous) or JB (subcutaneous) modifier.
J1442, Q5101 or Q5110: The subcutaneous or intravenous formulation of filgrastim needs to billed with the JA (intravenous) or JB (subcutaneous) modifier.
A situation in which the JW modifier is not permitted is when the actual dose of the drug or biological administered is less than the billing unit. For example, one billing unit for a drug is equal to 10mg of the drug in a single use vial. A 7mg dose is administered to a patient while 3mg of the remaining drug is discarded. The 7mg dose is billed using one billing unit that represents 10mg on a single line item. The single line item of 1 unit would be processed for payment of the total 10mg of drug administered and discarded. Billing another unit on a separate line item with the JW modifier for the discarded 3mg of drug is not permitted because it would result in overpayment. Therefore, when the billing unit is equal to or greater than the total actual dose and the amount discarded , the use of the JW modifier is not permitted.

An unlabeled use of a drug is a use that is not included as an indication on the drug's label as approved by the FDA.
