I’m coding for a patient who underwent CAR-T therapy, and I’m a bit confused about how to report the different steps. I understand that 0537T is for collection and handling, and 0540T is for administration, but I want to clarify a few things. Can we report 0537T more than once per day? Also, if the hospital is facilitating the process but not actually performing the collection or preparation, should the hospital still report any of these codes, or are they strictly for the specialty lab or manufacturer?
