HCPCS code J7294: Yearly vaginal system, contraceptive system2026 Medicare rate & RVUs

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

What J7294 covers

J7294 identifies a yearly vaginal system containing segesterone acetate and ethinyl estradiol. The listed release amounts are 0.15 mg and 0.013 mg per 24 hours, respectively. It is a hormonal contraceptive product used vaginally; report the product when the complete yearly system is furnished. This is distinct from the monthly-use etonogestrel and ethinyl estradiol vaginal ring identified by J7295.

Medicare assigns physician fee schedule status N, which indicates not covered, and the HCPCS coverage designation is not covered by statute. The HCPCS pricing designation says it is not separately priced by Medicare Part B. The code's unit is each complete yearly system; the release amounts describe the system's rate, not separate daily billing units. This code identifies the product rather than a daily supply.
