What 96374 covers

This service covers a therapeutic, preventive, or diagnostic drug delivered directly into a vein, either through an existing IV line or by direct venous access. The medication is given as a push rather than infused over time. In outpatient clinics, physician offices, and emergency settings, a nurse or other qualified clinical staff member commonly administers an ordered IV medication such as an antiemetic or analgesic; the billing provider reports the administration service.

Select 96374 for the single or initial IV push, based on the route and method documented—not simply because the patient has an IV line. Record the drug, dose, route, and that it was administered by push. The drug itself may be reported separately when a separate drug code applies. When Medicare bills the service as incident-to, it must be performed under physician supervision.

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.

96374 billing questions

How is an IV push different from an IV infusion?

96374 describes a drug delivered by push into a vein or existing IV line. When the drug is administered by infusion over time, consider the applicable infusion administration code, such as 96365.

Can 96374 be reported with 96375?

Yes, when an additional, different drug is given by a sequential IV push during the encounter. 96374 represents the single or initial push; 96375 represents the additional new-drug push.

When is 96376 used instead?

96376 is the add-on code associated with an additional sequential IV push of the same drug. It is not the code for an additional different drug.

Does 96374 represent the medication as well as its administration?

No. 96374 reports the administration. Report the drug separately when an applicable drug code and billing requirements support doing so.

What documentation supports 96374?

Document the medication, dose, intravenous route, and that it was administered by push, along with the administering clinician and service details. For Medicare incident-to billing, the service must be performed under physician supervision.

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.
