Wiki HOW TO BILL BI LATERAL THIAMINE INJECTIONS HCPC J3411

[ashley.gustin83]

I AM NOT SURE HOW TO BILL BI LATERAL INJECTIONS ON HCPC J3411. FROM WHAT MY UNDERSTANDING, HCPC J3411 HAS 1 BILLABLE UNIT, SO AM I TO BILL THE DRUG ON TWO SEPERATE LINES WITH RT/LT MODIFIER AND ONLY ONE ADMIN? I HAVE INCLUDED A COPY OF NOTES BELOW, ANY ADVICE WOULD BE GREATLY APPRECIATED. TIA J3411 x1 MOD LT J3411 x1 MOD RT 96372 NDC Billing Code HCPCS Code HCPCS Code Desc. Dosage Package Size Package Quantity Billable Units Billable Units / Pkg 00641622825 J3411 Thiamine hcl 100 mg 100 MG 2 25 1 50 HC Therapeutic Injections: Thiamine : 2.5 mL (Dose No:2) (Route: Intramuscular) given by on right gluteus (Protein-calorie malnutrition, unspecified severity, History of bariatric surgery) Thiamine : 2.5 mL (Dose No:2) (Route: Intramuscular) given by on left gluteus (Protein-calorie malnutrition, unspecified severity, History of bariatric surgery)

Hi, when I bill bilateral injections, I bill as such:
J0178 modifiers LT, RT double the units (some insurances require that the drug is billed on a separate line with the respective modifier)
67028 modifier 50 1 unit double the price
