Coding and Medicare National Average Reimbursement
2016 Hospital Outpatient (OPPS), Ambulatory Surgery Center (ASC) and
2016 Physician Services (MPFS)
Medicare 2016 OPPS payment rates are reflective of Medicare 2016 OPPS Final Rule, Addendum B Medicare physician
payment rates included in this coding guide are based on current law, including the Pathway for SGR Reform Act of 2013 and
the MPFS payment rates reflecting policies adopted in CY 2016 Medicare Physician Fee Schedule Final Rule that appeared in
the Federal Register on November 1, 2015, with updated conversion factor files published January 15, 2016. Physician
payment rates are based on conversion factor $35.8043 through December 31, 2016.
Coding for administration of SIR-Spheres microspheres can be complex. There is no consensus or consistency in the
coding/billing for the administration of SIR-Sphere microspheres. This coding guide provides SIR-Spheres Microspheres PreTreatment and Day of Treatment coding options. Payer policies should be reviewed for coverage & coding guidelines.

Some CPT descriptors have been shortened for purposes of brevity. See your CPT Guide for full descriptors and coding guidelines.
“Facility payment” refers to professional services rendered in a facility setting such as hospital or ASC.
3
“Non-Facility payment” refers to professional services provided in the physician freestanding office, surgical or cancer center.
4
The possible coding options listed in this section are based on Medicare guidelines and society recommendations. Medicare base case
coding scenarios typical for one mapping and one treatment in the hospital outpatient or ASC setting follow this section.
5
Treatment planning should be billed and dictated separately prior to microspheres administration,
6
Do NOT code CPT 79445 for the injection of TC99 MAA on the mapping day as this is considered part of the nuclear medicine exam.

Use of this code requires a written order by the physician.
Used in circumstances requiring extra work over and above basic dosimetry calculation: Patient with previous chemo, is receiving concurrent
chemo, or external beam radiation to the body/liver. AU must review current CT scan, liver function studies and ECOG performance status to
determinate % yttrium-90 dose to be adjusted taking into account previous treatments. Often used as a re-treatment code.

CPT codes 77300 and 79445 will be packaged with payment for CPT 37243. CPT code 37243 is assigned to a Comprehensive APC (J1),
which means all services performed on the day of treatment will be packaged (CPT 37243 is always performed/billed on day of treatment).

*Status Code J1: Comprehensive APC (C-APC). In 2015 CMS created C-APCs using Status Indicator J1. All associated services will be

the same day as CPT code 37242 (J1) or 37243 (J!) (with the exception of Yttrium-90 brachytherapy sources billed under C2616).
