Our providers inject 0.5cc of Depo-Medrol 40mg/ml. (multi dose vial) Do we report this as J1020x1 Methylprdnisolone actat 20mg or J1030 since that is the 40mg?

use the J1030 for the 40 mg.

just saw where J1030 is being deleted on 03/31/2024, but cannot find a crosswalk...anyone know?

From what I have seen online the new code is J1010 and its billed per 1mg. My question would be which NDC number do we use. Still trying to find that part out.

I am curious as to how many units we are supposed to use. If my physician injects 2 cc's from an 80mg vial and we can only use J1010 which is for 1 mg, how does that work out?

 

[keagaddis@hotmail.com]

If they use 80mg then that would be 80 units from my understanding. 40mg=40 units etc

That's what I was thinking but was wanting some other confirmation. Thanks so much!

Have you been able to find the correct NDC number?

you will use the NDC# from what Depo-Medrol 20mg, 40mg, or 80mg used. the NDC# on the claim will alert the insurance carriers as to which strength was used.
