I recently posted a question regarding a medical claim and this was part of the response: “For the D9248 you will need to list the drugs used and their appropriate HCPCS code.” What are HCPCS? And where do I find more information on the correct HCPCS codes for D9248 (non IV Sedation)? Thank you for your time and response.

HCPCS stands for Healthcare Common Procedural Coding System and is published by the American Medical Association (AMA). This book lists drug codes, durable medical equipment codes, outpatient services, and more. You may purchase the book from any company that sells coding manuals. If you would like the specific HCPCS codes please list what drugs you are using for the D9248 (i.e. The HCPCS code for demerol is J2175).
