: Albuterol J code.....
: jenniferp July 16, 2019, 01:45:27 PM

Good Morning All --

I am struggling to figure out which is the correct "J" code to use for the Albuterol used during a nebulizer treatment.  We are using plain Albuterol Sulfate 0.083% 2.5mg/3mL individual dose.  Looking at all the different J codes for albuterol, compounded vs. non-compounded, we're lost.  Does anyone have any information - I would be greatly appreciative.

Thanks!
Jennifer

The code I'm seeing is J7613.
