For CPT code 96409, could this be used for Vincristine IVP administrations when the time is documented as 20 minutes and nothing supports that the nurse was at bedside while pushing the medication? It is my understanding that this medication should not be given without direct nursing supervision and by the dosage, it will take around 20 minutes to appropriately administer. I am not sure if we can use clinical judgement or should there be a policy on this type of administration?
Thanks
