Article Overview

This premium article reviews CMS FAQ guidance on drug-administration billing and how much is left to local Medicare carriers to decide. It is aimed at coders, billing staff, and compliance professionals who need to understand the scope of Medicare Part B policy discussions affecting infusion and injection reporting. The article focuses on broad categories of drug-administration issues, local coverage variation, and CMS’s current position on unresolved billing questions.
