What J9347 covers

Tremelimumab-actl is an immune checkpoint inhibitor administered by intravenous infusion. Oncology clinicians use it with durvalumab for unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma and with durvalumab plus platinum chemotherapy for metastatic non-small cell lung cancer. An oncology practice or hospital outpatient department reports the drug when it furnishes the dose for administration; a qualifying infusion administration is reported separately from the drug.

Each unit represents 1 mg of tremelimumab-actl, so reported units match the total milligrams administered. CMS assigns physician fee schedule status E, excluding the code from that schedule; when Medicare covers the drug, payment is made under another method. CMS classifies it as a Part B drug, generally priced using its quarterly Average Sales Price drug pricing files when covered. The Medicare contractor determines coverage.

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.

J9347 billing questions

How many units should be reported?

Report one unit for each 1 mg of tremelimumab-actl administered. The units should reflect the total administered dose.

Is this the same drug code as durvalumab?

No. J9347 represents tremelimumab-actl; J9173 represents durvalumab, a different drug that may be given with it in a treatment regimen.

Does J9347 include the infusion administration?

No. J9347 identifies the drug. Report a qualifying infusion administration service separately, such as CPT 96413 when applicable.

How does Medicare price and cover J9347?

CMS excludes J9347 from the physician fee schedule under status E. When covered as a Part B drug, it is generally priced using the quarterly ASP drug pricing files, and the Medicare contractor determines coverage.

What documentation supports the units?

Document the drug administered and the total milligrams given so the reported units can be tied to the administered dose.

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.
