Wiki Tylenol Administration

[lisaking527]

Is there a code that I can use to bill the administation of Tylenol or Motrin? The only code that I have found for oral medication administration is H0033, but I am not famililar with it and I don't want to use it until I am sure that it is appropriate. Please help

I am an outpatient coder for a hospital and adminstration of a PO med is part of our E&M charge. Hope this helps.

We are office based and we do not bill for the admin.

The administration is included in the E&M, you can bill A9150 with the appropriate NDC# for the OTC meds- some insurances will pay.
