Question: If the patient receives saline (NS) concurrently with chemotherapy for hydration, may we report +96361 along with the chemotherapy administration code? Pennsylvania Subscriber Answer: You should not report 96360-+96361 (Intravenous infusion, hydration ...) for saline administered concurrently with chemotherapy, according to Medicare. Rule: In addition, Medicare's Correct Coding Initiative (CCI) policy manual states, "Hydration concurrent with other drug administration services is not separately reportable" (chapter 11, section B.5). What's reportable? Note that non-Medicare policies may differ from Medicare's rules. Also, always reference the coding instructions and parenthetical notes for the administration services you are providing.
