What J7313 covers

J7313 identifies fluocinolone acetonide supplied as the Iluvien intravitreal implant. An ophthalmologist, commonly a retina specialist, places the implant into the vitreous using an applicator. Its corticosteroid is released over time, and its established use includes treatment of diabetic macular edema. The drug code represents the implant product, not the eye procedure used to place it; the applicable intravitreal procedure code may be reported separately when supported by the service.

CMS assigns this code physician fee schedule status E, meaning it is excluded from the physician fee schedule. When Medicare covers the item or service, payment is made under another payment method. HCPCS classifies it as a Part B drug, generally priced from CMS’s quarterly Average Sales Price drug files when covered. Coverage is left to the Medicare contractor’s judgment. Each billing unit represents 0.01 mg of fluocinolone; the 0.19-mg implant corresponds to 19 units.

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.
