Has anybody noticed that medicare and medicaid are not paying the port flush?
Is there some update that i cannot find?

This question has been brought up to me

"Saline flushes for PICC and Ports, is there a cap on how many you can charge for? Ex. PICC’s actually have NS 20ml flushes for each lumen and there are two lumens. Nursing is only charting on 1 lumen. Can we get more reimbursement for all 4, or no?"

My answer was that we can only charge cpt 96523 once. Is this correct? I cannot find any official guidelines on this.
