Provider-Administered<br />
Drugs<br />
Procedure codes for Medicaid-covered<br />
provider-administered drugs are listed in the<br />
physician services maximum allowable fee<br />
schedules. Providers should use the<br />
appropriate fee schedule in conjunction with<br />
the most recent HCPCS coding book for<br />
descriptions.<br />
Diagnosis Restrictions<br />
Diagnosis restrictions that apply to NDCs also<br />
apply to corresponding HCPCS codes when<br />
billed as provider-administered drugs.<br />
<strong>Wisconsin</strong> Medicaid requires a valid <strong>and</strong><br />
acceptable International Classification of<br />
Diseases, Ninth Revision, Clinical<br />
Modification (ICD-9-CM) diagnosis code on<br />
claims for selected provider-administered<br />
drugs. Diagnosis code restrictions are based on<br />
Food <strong>and</strong> Drug Administration-approved<br />
indications <strong>and</strong> compendium st<strong>and</strong>ards.<br />
Refer to Appendix 32 of this section for a list<br />
of drugs that are diagnosis restricted <strong>and</strong> the<br />
respective HCPCS codes, allowable diagnosis<br />
codes, <strong>and</strong> disease descriptions. This list may<br />
be updated periodically. Refer to the Physician<br />
page of the Medicaid Web site for an updated<br />
list.<br />
If the recipient’s diagnosis is not one of the<br />
allowable diagnoses for the code, providers are<br />
required to obtain PA.<br />
Prior Authorization Requirements<br />
Physician services providers are required to<br />
obtain PA for provider-administered drugs in<br />
Appendix 15 of this section <strong>and</strong> for provideradministered<br />
drugs that are not provided with<br />
one of the allowable diagnosis codes listed in<br />
Appendix 32. Providers are required to use the<br />
Prior Authorization/“J” Code Attachment<br />
(PA/JCA), HCF 11034, along with the Prior<br />
Authorization Request Form (PA/RF), HCF<br />
11018, to request PA.<br />
Providers are required to include with the PA<br />
request peer-reviewed medical literature from<br />
scientific medical or pharmaceutical<br />
publications in which original manuscripts are<br />
rejected or published only after having been<br />
reviewed by unbiased independent experts.<br />
Only the diagnosis codes listed in Appendix 32<br />
of this section are reimbursable without PA.<br />
Unclassified Drugs<br />
Providers should not submit claims with<br />
HCPCS procedure code J3490 when there is<br />
another procedure code that better describes<br />
the drug. Claims with J3490 will be denied if<br />
there is a more specific code that may be<br />
used.<br />
Procedure code J3490 requires PA only when<br />
the drug may also be used as a fertility drug.<br />
To be reimbursed for an unclassified drug that<br />
does not require PA or a HCPCS code that<br />
does not have a maximum allowable fee listed<br />
in the fee schedule for physicians, providers<br />
are required to submit a paper CMS 1500<br />
claim form <strong>and</strong> attach the following<br />
information:<br />
• Name of drug.<br />
• National Drug Code.<br />
• Dosage.<br />
• Quantity (e.g., vials, milliliters, milligrams).<br />
Reimbursement<br />
Reimbursement for provider-administered<br />
drugs includes reimbursement for the<br />
administration of the drug. Therefore, providers<br />
should not submit claims for an administration<br />
code (i.e., CPT procedure codes 90782-90788<br />
or HCPCS codes G0351-G0358) concurrently<br />
with a drug code or concurrently with any<br />
