Ok I hope this helps. And I have a Medication Assistance area within our dept that worked out the details. One of them was a biller for the hospital. They figured out that you can bill for the waste. So if its a total of 10 billable units. Patient gets 7 units. The other 3 are billed as waste. Now I know that this must be entered into the patients chart. So when we make it we have a sticker that we right the waste on and its applied to the chart. If you need more exact details I can get you in contact with the Med Assistance people. Hope that helps some.
Thank you for replying! I was hoping someone could tell me what they are doing when
you are giving less then a billable unit. So, 10mg would 1 unit, but you only gave 7mg.
What would you do with the other 3mg because you cannot add a jw modifier to that since it is less than 1 unit. Did I explain that well? Sorry!
Thank you,
Ciara
