Article Text

This article contains billing and coding guidelines that complement the Local Coverage Determination (LCD) Drugs and Biologicals, Coverage of, for Label and Off-Label Uses.


Abstract:

Bortezomib is an antineoplastic agent which inhibits the activity of the 26S proteasome. It exhibits cytotoxicity to various malignant cells, including myeloma and lymphoma cells. 

Documentation Requirements:

When modifier –JW is used to report that a portion of the drug is discarded, the medical record must clearly show the amount administered and the amount wasted. Effective July 1, 2023 (CR 13056) JZ Modifier is required on all claims that bill for drugs separately payable under Medicare Part B when there are no discarded amounts from single-dose containers or single-use packages.


Utilization:

Dose and frequency should be in accordance with the FDA label or recognized compendia (for off-label uses). When services are performed in excess of established parameters, they may be subject to review for medical necessity.
