- injection dosage converter | Medical Billing and Coding Forum - AAPC
This information will be indicated on the drug package, and will be represented as a weight per unit of volume, for example: 10 mg ml (or 10 mg cc) 4) In order to convert the volume to the dose, multiply the volume given times the strength So if 5 ml was given and the strength is 10 mg ml, then your conversion is: 5 ml X 10 mg ml = 50 mg

It sounds like the provider perhaps used 2 5 cc of the Lidocaine and added to that 0 5 cc of the Dexamethasone (which would be 5 mg of Dexamethasone per the conversion, not 10 mg), but it only comes up to a total of 3 0 cc and the injections documented total 3 25 cc You may need to get clarification from the provider about this
- 1cc = how many mg | Medical Billing and Coding Forum - AAPC
For example, if 2 cc (volume) of Kenalog 40mg cc (concentration strength) is injected, the provider actually injected a total of 80 mg of Kenalog (40 * 2) and would be reported with 8 units of J3301 Whereas if 1 cc of Kenalog 40 mg cc were injected (less volume but same strength), only 40 mg was injected and 4 units of J3301 would be billed
- Wiki kenalog help. . please respond - AAPC
J3301 triamcinolone acetonide, (Kenalog-10, Kenalog-40) per 10 mg If your bottle says Kenalog 40 =40 mg ml If you use 0 25 cc 10 mg 40 mg = 1 Unit If you use 0 5 cc 20 mg 40 mg = 2 Units If you use 0 75 cc 30 mg 40 mg = 3 Units If you use 1 0 cc 40 mg 40 mg = 4 Units

- Wiki is J3490 billable with cpt 20550? - AAPC
If J3490 is the code then be sure to write total #of cc mg or ml given to the patient per documentation as the units (J3490 is per 1cc mg or ml per unit) Would love other billers coders to give their experiences with injections and any tips they have to coding billing J or S codes correctly the first time!
- Wiki Injection need help with ml vs mg how to calculate - AAPC
In example 2, 1 ml given will equal a 4 mg total dose For the Bupivacaine, you don't have a strength, but a 0 25% dose should be 2 5 mg ml (you can verify this on the box or label of the drug) So assuming that is correct, then 6 ml of Bupivacaine would be 6 X 2 5 = 15 mg given Similarly, 2 ml would be 5 mg Hope that makes sense and helps some
- Wiki - Kenalog units | Medical Billing and Coding Forum - AAPC
4 ml of 40 mg ml is 16 mg, which would translate to 1 6 units of J3301 Since you cannot bill a fraction of a unit, you would have to round up to one for unit for any amounts above 10 mg In other words, bill 2 units in this case
- Wiki - Kenalog | Medical Billing and Coding Forum - AAPC
Kenalog-40 represents 40mg cc and Kenalog-10 is 10mg cc This way you can multiply the cc's by the mg cc in the solution to get the actual amount (mg) of Kenalog injected So in the example above, 0 1 cc's of 40mg cc Kenalog (Kenalog-40) comes out to 4mg as the total dosage and one unit of J3301
- orthopaedics | Medical Billing and Coding Forum - AAPC
Our providers sometimes will indicate usage in cc or mg and the order and coders need to figure out how many Units this is to bill correctly After some research this is what we found: 0 25 cc - 1 5 mg 6 mg = 1 unit 0 5 cc - 3mg 6mg = 1 unit 0 75 cc - 4 5mg 6mg = 1 unit 1 0 cc - 6mg 6mg = 2 units 2 0 cc - 12mg 12mg = 4 units
