Let's say that during a visit in the ER a patient recieves the following IVPs:

two demerol pushes
two zofran pushes

How would you report that? I know you would bill the initial push and an additional push, but what about the other two pushes since there are two drugs?

Also, let's say a different patient comes in and has a Rocephin infusion and three zofran pushes. How would you report that?

Thanks in advance for any help!
 
96374 x1 (Demerol #1) 96375x1 (Zofran#1)96376x2 (Demerol #2 and Zofran #2)

For the Rocephin if given IVPB you would report 96365 for the first hour and the for the Zofran push you would report 96375 for the first one and then 96376x2 for the additional
