What is infusion injection coding?

Infusion injection coding is the process of assigning standardized medical codes to procedures involving the administration of medications or fluids through injections or infusions. Medical coders use CPT (Current Procedural Terminology) codes to accurately document and bill for services such as intravenous (IV) infusions, therapeutic injections, and hydration therapy. Proper coding ensures healthcare providers receive correct reimbursement from insurance companies and helps maintain accurate patient records. Coders must be familiar with specific guidelines, including timing, type of substance administered, and the sequence of multiple infusions or injections.
