Hi! I am looking to see if anyone has any supporting documentation from a reputable source stating what documentation is required to bill depomedrol?

Example: if provider states injected left knee with 80mg depo is this acceptable in order to bill HCPCS J1040 as that is the strength or does it need to state mg/ml? In other words is ML necessary in order to bill J1040 or does mg suffice?


I would love to hear others opinions on this and also looking for supporting documentation or examples given to help support.

Thank you in advance!
 
mg should be sufficient as the HCPCS book describes J1040-Injection, methylprednisolone acetate, 80 mg.
