Official Description

Home infusion/specialty drug administration, per visit (up to 2 hours); each additional hour (List separately in addition to code for primary procedure)

Common Language Description

The CPT® Code 99602 refers to the administration of home infusion or specialty drugs, specifically indicating the service provided per visit for a duration of up to two hours. This code is utilized when a healthcare professional administers a specialty drug, which may include intravenous medications, in a patient's home setting. The term "home infusion" signifies that the administration occurs outside of a traditional healthcare facility, allowing for more personalized care in a familiar environment for the patient. It is important to note that this code covers the initial two hours of service; for any additional time spent administering the drug beyond this period, the same code (99602) should be listed separately to account for each additional hour of service provided. This structured approach ensures accurate billing and reimbursement for the healthcare services rendered during home infusion therapy.
