We were having a discussion in my office in regards to Hydration, in the process of the infusion the Dr. gave an IVP. Would the push of a med (IVP) cancel the charging for the Normal Saline? My thoughts would be to cancel the 96360 and only charge the 96374 with the med administered, is my thinking off???
Per the CPT "When the fluids are used to administer the drug(s), the administration of the fluid is considered incidental hydration and is not separately reportable."
Thank you,
Melissa
