Medicare allowed amount for participating (non-QP) physicians, before deductible, coinsurance and claim adjustments. Not a patient’s bill or a hospital charge.

What 62368 covers

A clinician uses the pump’s programmer to interrogate an implanted device that delivers medication into the intrathecal or epidural space, review its status, and change programmed infusion settings. Pain medicine specialists may use this service when adjusting intrathecal analgesia for chronic pain; physiatrists or other treating clinicians may adjust intrathecal baclofen delivery for spasticity. It is commonly performed during an outpatient visit when symptoms, treatment response, or medication effects prompt a change to the pump program.

Report 62368 when electronic analysis results in an actual programming change and the service does not include pump refill and maintenance. Record the device and indication, findings from the interrogation, the prior and revised settings, and the clinical reason for the adjustment. If analysis is performed without a setting change, consider 62367. When refill and maintenance are part of the service, select from the 62369–62370 family rather than reporting this analysis service for the same work. The Medicare physician fee schedule assigns work and practice-expense values to 62368.
