Medication administration

About 96369: Initial subcutaneous therapeutic infusion

Reports the initial, up-to-one-hour service for a therapeutic or prophylactic medication delivered by subcutaneous infusion rather than a single injection.

This service covers starting a therapeutic or prophylactic medication infusion through a subcutaneous site, including setting up the infusion and establishing the site or sites. It is distinct from a one-time subcutaneous injection: the medication is delivered by infusion, commonly using an infusion pump. In an office setting, clinical staff may perform the administration as part of the physician-supervised service.

Report 96369 for the initial infusion service, up to one hour; documentation should support the medication, subcutaneous route, infusion start and stop times, and work performed to establish the infusion. For Medicare, this is an incident-to service and may be billed only when performed under physician supervision. The drug itself is not the administration service represented by this code; report it separately when appropriate under the applicable drug billing rules.
