I'm new to our Oncology/hematology office and our physicans tend to give vitamin b12 (J3420), magnesium sulfate (J3475), and potassium chloride (J3480) injections to our patients that are currently receiving active chemo treatments, even if they do not have deficiencies of these. The doctors state it is part of their regimen because these levels are typical to drop due to the chemo treatment, so they administer them as a preventive measure. Is this common practice and is anyone familiar and aware if cancers will be covered diagnosis'?
