What 62369 covers

This service covers electronic interrogation of an implanted programmable pump that delivers medication into the intrathecal or epidural space, review of its operating information, adjustment of its settings, and refill of its reservoir. It is used for patients with implanted systems delivering medication such as intrathecal baclofen or pain medication. Pain specialists, neurosurgeons, and other clinicians who manage these pumps commonly provide the service in an office or facility setting.

Report 62369 when the encounter includes the pump analysis, a programming change, and a refill, and the work meets this code’s provider-performance criteria. The distinction from 62370 is whether the service requires physician or other qualified health care professional skill; match the code to who performed the work and the documentation. The record should support the pump’s status review, the programming performed, the medication and amount used to refill the reservoir, and the clinical need for the visit. This code represents the combined refill-and-reprogramming service, not analysis alone or analysis with programming but no refill.

This summary was written with AI assistance from CMS physician fee schedule data and checked against the CMS billing rules shown here. Rates on this page come directly from CMS files.

62369 billing questions

When should 62369 be chosen instead of 62368?

Use 62369 when the pump is reprogrammed and its reservoir is refilled. Code 62368 describes pump analysis with reprogramming but without a refill.

How does 62369 differ from 62370?

Both describe pump analysis with reprogramming and refill. The distinction is whether the service requires physician or other qualified health care professional skill; select the code supported by the performer and documented work.

Does this code include the pump analysis and refill?

Yes. The reported service includes electronic pump analysis, reprogramming, and reservoir refill when all three are performed.

What documentation supports 62369?

Document the pump status reviewed, the programming change, the medication and refill amount, and who performed the work. The record should establish that a refill and reprogramming occurred during the service.

Can 62369 be reported when the pump is only checked?

No. Analysis without reprogramming or refill is represented by 62367; analysis with reprogramming but no refill is represented by 62368.

Where these rates come from

FeeBase calculates base physician payments from CMS work, practice-expense and malpractice RVUs, adjusted by each locality’s geographic indexes and the conversion factor. Services without a published rate are labeled, never given a made-up amount. Amounts are Medicare allowed amounts before claim adjustments: not a patient’s bill or a commercial rate.
