Looking for a CPT administration code for administering meds orally in office eg: oral decadron given in office :)
 
There is no code for this and it cannot be charged. If anything it is part of the E&M. If the patient came in to only receive this med then the question becomes.. Why?
 
CPT code for oral meds

Is anyone familiar with coding injectible J1100 Dexamethasone Sodium Phosphate, 1 Mg orally? Yes, orally. We have a provider that administers this PO as it's lower dose for patient to take. Thank you
 
My understanding is you can't use an injectable code unless its actually injected.

You may want to look at J8540 - Dexamethasone, oral, 0.25 mg
