CMS doesn’t publish a rate for J0893 in Arkansas.

Check a contract rate as a % of Medicare · J0893 nationwide

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

What J0893 covers

J0893 identifies the Sun Pharma decitabine product, an intravenous antineoplastic medicine used to treat myelodysplastic syndromes. Hematology and oncology clinicians typically order and oversee treatment, while infusion staff prepare and administer the drug in an outpatient infusion center or hospital. The drug code identifies the product and quantity, not the infusion service itself.

Medicare assigns this code physician fee schedule status E, meaning it is excluded from the physician fee schedule; when covered, Medicare pays through another payment method. CMS classifies it as a Part B drug, generally priced from the quarterly Average Sales Price files when covered. The Medicare contractor determines coverage. Each unit represents 1 mg, so report the administered dose in milligrams. Use J0893 for the Sun Pharma product rather than J0894, which identifies decitabine that CMS treats as not therapeutically equivalent.
