If you use a de-clotting or thrombolytic agent, you should use code 36550. Also remember to use the J-code for the specific thrombolytic agent used. The diagnosis code should be the patient’s primary cancer and Z45.2 (encounter for adjustment and management of vascular access device).
If the doctor sees the patient at the hospital on the day of the chemo, they could bill the appropriate E&M code but could not bill for the administration (i.e., 96365-96379 or 96401-965 49). Chemotherapy administration codes reimburse primarily for the overhead/personnel costs of the infusion center. You can only bill for chemotherapy administration if you own the facility. If it is a hospital–based infusion center, you cannot collect for chemo administration. However, the amount of physician work associated with most chemo admin codes is only about 0.5 RVUs. You can charge for E&M codes if they are separately identifiable services. You then must document what was done and show medical justification for the visit. It should not be duplicative of clinic visits.
