Question: How should I report an intra-epididymal injection of Kenalog?

South Carolina Subscriber

Answer: Report 96372 (Therapeutic, prophylactic, or diagnostic injection [specify substance or drug]; subcutaneous or intramuscular) for the injection. Then, choose between J3300 (Injection, triamcinolone acetonide, preservative free, 1 mg) or J3301 (...not otherwise specified, 10 mg) for the Kenalog itself, based on your physician's documentation.
