We are currently experiencing a situation in which an auditor is stating that all IV drugs ordered by the physician with an expected duration of 1-2 minutes must have a documented stop time in order to charge the 96374, 96375 or 96376.

I have never encountered a situation like this in over 5 years. Perhaps I’ve missed verbiage in the CPT coding book that states it must be present?

Any help would be appreciated.
