Wiki Injection via g-tube

[Purdygrl4704]

Is there a different fee other than 96372 to use to administer injections via a g tube? This was a injection that had nothing to do with the G-tube, just used the site to administer it.

96372 would not be correct since that is for subcutaneous and intramuscular injections only.

An injection into a g-tube is not really an injection - it's the equivalent of giving an oral medication. It's not something that would be separately coded.
