Wiki J0280 - Aminophylline, up to 250 mg

I have a question on how to bill the J0280. Our nuc tech used it and used only 50mg, but of course had to waste the remainder of the vial. Do I bill this per mg or for the entire 250mg with a note of the amount wasted? Does anyone know, I looked at the Medicare website but could not find info on how to bill, just amount reimbursed.

Thanks for your help!
 
1 unit for everything up to 250MG (which is a single vial of 10ml w/ 25mg/ml)

No billing would be done for the remainder of the vial thrown out because that would cause over-payment if the waste was billed on a separate line.
