What J9024 covers

This HCPCS Level II code identifies the subcutaneous combination of atezolizumab and hyaluronidase-tqjs used in cancer treatment. Oncology practices report it for the drug administered by subcutaneous injection; the code's unit count follows the atezolizumab dose, not the amount of hyaluronidase. It represents the combination product, rather than atezolizumab alone in an intravenous formulation.

CMS assigns physician fee schedule status E, so the drug is excluded from the physician fee schedule. When Medicare covers it, CMS classifies it as a Part B drug generally paid through the quarterly ASP drug pricing files, while coverage is left to the Medicare contractor's judgment. Report one unit for each 5 mg of atezolizumab administered. The drug line identifies the medication; CPT 96401 may report subcutaneous antineoplastic administration when separately reportable.

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.

J9024 billing questions

How does this differ from J9022?

J9024 identifies atezolizumab with hyaluronidase-tqjs for subcutaneous administration. J9022 represents the conventional atezolizumab formulation, reported in 10 mg units and administered intravenously.

How many units should be reported?

Each unit represents 5 mg of atezolizumab. Calculate units from the atezolizumab dose administered, not from the hyaluronidase content.

Is the administration included in the drug code?

The HCPCS line identifies the drug. Subcutaneous antineoplastic administration may be reported separately with CPT 96401 when appropriate.

How does Medicare treat this code?

CMS assigns status E, so the drug is excluded from the physician fee schedule. When covered, it is generally paid as a Part B drug through the quarterly ASP pricing files, with coverage 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.
