I have a Makena Injection that was given but the medicine is brought in by the patient do I need to put the j code on the bill? We do charge the injection fee.

Thanks!

my colorectal surgeons inject Botox which is purchased by the patient and sent to our office and all insurances required that I enter the J code and a charge amount of 0 since we are not billing for the medication
