Question:

What codes do we report for monoclonal antibody Beyfortus™?

Answer:

Effective October 6, 2023, two new codes (96380 and 96381) were introduced for reporting of monoclonal antibody Beyfortus™ (nirsevimab-alip) for RSV immunization. This revises earlier guidance that instructed to report injection of nirsevimab with the 96372. Do not report administration of SYNAGIS® (palivizumab) with 96380 or 96381.
