Ask A Rev Cycle Expert: Where is HCPCS E9747?
Question:
We were told that we could use HCPCS code E9747 to report COVID-19 Convalescent Plasma, but I can’t find details for the code. Do you know where I can find it?
Answer:
Code E9747 is not a Healthcare Common Procedure Coding System (HCPCS) code. The code was identified for use by the ICCBBA, an international company that works with the World Health Organization (WHO) and manages the globally unique identifiers for labeling medical products of human origin. It is not used for hospital claims reporting purposes.
