Radiation Oncology

I have a Radiation physician who is wanting to bill for education (E/M codes 99213-99214) once simulation has been performed. I know that hospitals should not report a patient visit during the course of radiation therapy but is simulation considered the start of therapy or can an E/M educational service be billed post simulation?
I appreciate any guidance you can provide on this one.

Billing for oxygen at an Oncology office

Posted on by
Hello all, this is my fist time using this forum… I work for an oncology practice and we administer chemotherapy in the office. We have a patient that brings her portable oxygen tank but sometimes she is here for hours and needs to be hooked up to our oxygen because her portable tank does not last enough. Can we bill for the oxygen she uses while she is at the office? Please advise… Thank you.

Oncology Drug Question

Posted on by
Drug given by 2 different Routes at 2 different times on the same day. 5Fu is given IVP and continuous infusion (pump for home x 24hr to 7 days) on the same date of service. The drug is billed per 500mg. The dose for the IVP is 700mg (2 billed units) and 5200mg (11 billed units) for CI for a total of 13 billed units. The total dose is 5900mg or 12 billed units. These are 2 separate dispensing transaction with 2 different routes of administration. Our MAC requires the units to be combined on one line. Do we bill 13 units or 12 and why? I need supporting documentation please.

Radiation Oncology coding and billing

Posted on by
Hello! I am new to radiation oncology coding and billing. Does anyone have any resources, cheat sheets or tips they would be willing to share with me? Anything would be greatly appreciated! I am tasked with coding radiation therapy, charge entry and working back end denials that have been sitting for awhile.

Also, my employer is looking to send me to a workshop or seminar. Does anyone know of any on the east coast after October 1st?

Radiation Oncology

I bill out for the PC side of Radiation Oncology in an out pt hosp setting. I am having trouble suddenly on getting some claims paid for 77427 and also 77014. I was thrown into this without any training and am getting very confused on modifiers and such. All I read is about the TC side. My doctor loves to do all kinds of codes together and I’m just lost. Is there any help out there?

Any Radiation Oncology Experts?

Posted on by
We are running into a bit of an issue when coding 77300, 77301 and 77307.

The following edits appear:

Column 1 / Column 2
77301 / 77307

Column 1 / Column 2
77307 / 77300

Since 77301 does not allow 77307, once I remove 77307 am I ok to bill 77300?
Or because they all exist together on the original bill, should I remove both 77307 and 77300?

Thanks so much!

I just started coding Radiaiton Oncology and need some guidance on coding 77412 for medicare patients. Can 77412 be charged to medicare patients or do I substitute with another code? I’ve read so much information from so many websites that I think I’m more confused now then when I started.

Thanks for helping!!!:confused:
