Wiki 90586 +- j9031 v05.8 vs v07.39

51720, 90586, j9031= bladder installation of anticarcinogenic, bcg vaccine? Do i need both 90586 and j9031???

Also, for primary dx, no e/m because it was scheduled, but would i use v05.8 (need for vaccination) or v07.39 (prophylactic chemotherapy) with bladder ca secondary?

 

[mitchellde]

it is not prophylactic if the patient has cancer it would be the V58.1x code for the immunotherapy

do I need to use the 90586 and the J9031?

 

[mitchellde]

no one or the other. usually it depends on the payer.
