Summary
Oregon Medicaid has removed billing code J0570 (Buprenorphine implant, 74.2 mg) from their fee schedule, effective December 31, 2024. The code can no longer be billed because the PROBUPHINE implant was discontinued by the FDA in 2020, though other buprenorphine forms remain available.
Action Required
Immediately: Billing team must ensure J0570 (Buprenorphine implant, 74.2 mg) is removed from billing system and cannot be submitted for Oregon Medicaid claims. Verify no pending claims contain this code as they will be denied. Update provider documentation to reflect alternative buprenorphine options (Subutex, Suboxone, Sublocade) for opioid use disorder treatment.
