What 95145 covers
An allergist or allergy practice reports this service for supervising preparation and provision of a single stinging-insect venom antigen used in immunotherapy. A typical case is venom treatment for a patient with a systemic reaction to a specific insect sting, such as a honeybee or yellow jacket. This code represents the antigen service, not the injection itself.
Select the one-venom level based on the antigen supplied, and report units for the doses prepared and provided rather than the number of injections administered. Documentation should identify the venom antigen, the dose quantity prepared or supplied, and the immunotherapy plan. CMS values the service under the physician fee schedule using work, practice expense, and malpractice RVUs; its practice-expense allocation is much higher in the office setting than in a facility.
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.
