96368(concurrent Infusion) confusion

Since 96368 is an add-on code, it requires a primary or initial administration code so I interpret that instruction as being the primary admin codes that are required on the claim for 96368 to be billable, excluding add-on codes 96415 & 96366 for add’l hours. Concurrent infusions are defined as “an infusion that occurs at the same time as another infusion” (all credit to AAPC Coder for the definition :))…not at the same time as a primary or initial infusion so using 96367 for the other drug is not incorrect in my opinion.

There is an Oncology & Hematology Coding Alert case study from May 2009 that supports the use of 96368 in an example with Dex & Phenergan in two bags, run concurrently, reported with 96367×1 and 96368.

At my last job, most of our concurrent infusions were 5FU/Leucovorin but we occasionally had premeds run concurrently over the years and this is how we reported them.
