What J0642 covers
J0642 identifies Khapzory, an injectable form of levoleucovorin, a folinic acid used to reduce the toxic effects of folic acid antagonists. Oncology clinicians use it for rescue after high-dose methotrexate and in methotrexate overdose or delayed drug elimination. The medication is given intravenously in settings such as oncology clinics and hospital outpatient departments. The code identifies the drug, not the service of administering it.
CMS assigns J0642 physician fee schedule status E, meaning it is excluded from the physician fee schedule. When Medicare covers the drug, it pays under another payment method; as a Part B drug, it is generally priced using CMS’s quarterly Average Sales Price drug files. Coverage is left to the Medicare contractor’s judgment. Each unit represents 0.5 mg of levoleucovorin, so the reported units reflect the amount administered in 0.5 mg increments.
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.

J0642 billing questions
What does one unit of J0642 represent?
One unit represents 0.5 mg of Khapzory levoleucovorin. Report units based on the amount administered in 0.5 mg increments.
How does J0642 differ from J0641?
J0642 identifies the Khapzory product. J0641 is for levoleucovorin injection not otherwise specified, rather than the specifically named Khapzory product.
How does J0642 differ from leucovorin calcium codes?
J0642 is for levoleucovorin (Khapzory). J0640 and J0643 identify leucovorin calcium products, which are different from the specifically named drug in J0642.
Does J0642 include the drug administration service?
No. J0642 identifies the drug quantity, not its administration. Any separately reportable administration service is coded under the applicable rules for the setting.
How does Medicare treat J0642?
CMS excludes it from the physician fee schedule. If Medicare covers the drug, it generally uses the Part B drug pricing method based on quarterly ASP files; coverage is left to the Medicare contractor’s judgment.
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.
