I need some help with a code. I miss Donna, our previous resident coding expert. I have lost (don't ask) the code for a Rocephin 1 gm injection. Any other information (wink, wink $$$) about that code would also be appreciated.

J0696 per 250mg of rocephin injected Medicare allows 1.48 for my region in my state Don't forget to charge the 90772 injection fee $17.80 in my neck of the woods.

Be careful a 90772 will cause the visit not to be paid in nm anyway

Thanks, Al. I did Google it and came up without much luck. I'll look at these sites. Also, look at www.mohawkmedical.com. Better prices there on the ceftriaxone at least. Leslie

The testosterone price is real high. I pay about $55 for the same at an independent pharmacy here in my building. Henry Schein surprisingly has real good prices on a lot of the injectables (esp. Rocephin and Td). Pneumaovax price is almost identical to what I get from Merck (although I get 90 days to pay Merck).

I use Henry Schein a lot too...via ESURGE.com. Some prices are better, some are not. I buy all of my generics that I sell in the office from Mohawk Medical.

Bill,
I looked at Andameds when I was first investigating selling generics out of the office. I registered and it took them over 3 weeks to get back with me. By that time I was unwilling to proceed with the registration or to buy from them. There it is again...that Aggressive streak. Shame on me.
