What J1447 covers

Tbo-filgrastim (Granix) is a granulocyte colony-stimulating factor used to reduce the duration of severe neutropenia in patients with nonmyeloid cancers receiving myelosuppressive chemotherapy. Oncology clinicians commonly administer it by subcutaneous injection in outpatient cancer clinics and infusion settings. It stimulates neutrophil production as supportive care during chemotherapy. J1447 identifies the drug product rather than the administration service.

Each unit represents 1 mcg of tbo-filgrastim; report units based on the amount administered. CMS excludes J1447 from the physician fee schedule (status E). When Medicare covers the drug, it generally pays it as a Part B drug using CMS quarterly Average Sales Price drug pricing files. Special Medicare coverage instructions apply to the product.

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.

J1447 billing questions

How is J1447 different from J1442?

J1447 identifies tbo-filgrastim. J1442 identifies filgrastim and excludes biosimilars, so select the code that matches the product administered.

What does one unit represent?

One unit represents 1 mcg of tbo-filgrastim. Report units based on the total amount administered.

Does J1447 include the injection administration?

J1447 identifies the drug product, not the act of administering it.

How does Medicare treat J1447?

CMS excludes it from the physician fee schedule with status E. When Medicare covers it, it generally pays under the Part B drug method using quarterly ASP drug pricing files; special Medicare coverage instructions apply.

What should the record support?

Record the tbo-filgrastim product and the amount administered so the code and units reflect what was given.

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.
