General Question for the Week of January 6, 2025

Question:

Can we report 96376 with 96374?

Answer:

Code 96376 may be reported with either 96374 or 96375. Remember that to use this code, however, two criteria must be met: at least 31 minutes must have passed since the last IV push of the same drug, and the additional administration must be a separate preparation of the drug.
