I am new to coding out the drugs used for injections. I need help trying to convert the cc's to ml and mg's. The doctor does an SI joint injection 27096 and uses Marcaine 0.25% 4.5 and Lidocaine 1% 3 and Depo 40 mg 40.
I know the Depo is J1040 at 1 unit. I think the Lidocaine would be J2001 at 300 units? and I'm not sure about the Marcaine. Could someone help please? I know Medicare does not reimburse for Marcaine with the S code so we cannot bill to Medicare.
Thanks
