Status code categories V46. 1 (ICD‐9, HCC 82) and Z99. 1 (ICD‐10, HCC 82) are for use when the patient is dependent on respirator (ventilator). This code category also includes weaning from a mechanical ventilator and encounters for respiratory (ventilator) dependence during power failure.

Ventilator technology has evolved to the point where it is possible to have a single device capable of operating in numerous modes, from basic continuous positive pressure ( CPAP and bi-level PAP) to traditional pressure and volume ventilator modes. Similarly, the product coded E0467 adds capabilities beyond these ventilator modes to incorporate the functionality of suction, oxygen concentrator, nebulizer, and cough stimulation. This creates the possibility that one piece of equipment may be able to replace numerous and different pieces of equipment. Equipment with multifunction capability creates the possibility of errors in claims submitted for these items. This article will discuss the application of Medicare proper coding and payment rules for ventilators.
This means that products currently classified as HCPCS code E0465, E0466 or E0467 when used to provide CPAP or bi-level PAP (with or without backup rate) therapy, regardless of the underlying medical condition, may not be paid in the FSS payment category.
FSS items are those for which there must be frequent and substantial servicing to avoid risk to the patient's health (Social Security Act §1834 (a) (3) (A)).
