Key Coverage Criteria
- Compounded medications for use in implantable infusion pumps may be covered by Medicare when their use meets all other criteria for services provided incident to a physician's service.
- True off-the-shelf (non‑compounded) drugs used without compounding and administered via DME may be billed using the drug-specific HCPCS code and are reimbursed under CMS ASP methodology.
- If Prialt® is implanted as a single agent in the pump, bill using HCPCS code J2278-KD.
- Compounded single-agent or combination drug formulations used in implanted infusion pumps must be billed using HCPCS code J7999-KD for reimbursement.
- CPT codes 64400-64530 for peripheral nerve blocks may be reported on the date of surgery when performed for postoperative pain management only if the operative anesthesia is general anesthesia, subarachnoid injection, or epidural injection and the adequacy of intraoperative anesthesia is not dependent on the peripheral nerve block.
- Peripheral nerve block services that are separate, medically necessary services which cannot be rendered by the surgeon may be reported if the surgeon documents the reason for referral and the additional services are justified in the medical record.
