Summary
BCBS Mississippi updated their policy on Intravenous Nutrient Therapy, removing deleted HCPCS code J0610 from their code reference list. The policy continues to classify IV nutrient therapy as not medically necessary, meaning claims using related codes will be denied.
Action Required
Immediately: Billing team must ensure HCPCS code J0610 is removed from billing systems as it has been deleted. Continue to expect denials for IV nutrient therapy services using CPT codes 96365, 96366, 96374 and HCPCS codes J3415, J3420, J3475 as these remain classified as not medically necessary.
