What J9370 covers

Vincristine sulfate is an antineoplastic medicine given intravenously, commonly as part of combination chemotherapy for cancers such as leukemia, lymphoma, neuroblastoma, and Wilms tumor. Oncology practices and hospital departments report the drug when it is furnished for a patient’s treatment; the administration method may be an IV push or infusion, depending on the regimen. The code identifies vincristine itself, not the service of administering it.

Medicare assigns this drug status E, meaning it is excluded from the physician fee schedule by regulation. When Medicare covers the drug, payment is made under another payment method; the HCPCS pricing method identifies it as a Part B drug generally priced from CMS’s quarterly ASP files. Special Medicare coverage instructions apply. Each code unit represents 1 mg of vincristine sulfate, so report units based on the dose furnished.

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.

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.
