CPT does not provide instructions regarding the appropriate reporting of drug administration services on a drug-bydrug basis and CMS only gives examples of drugs that can qualify for the chemo administration codes, however Centocor published a great document that reviews the guidelines on determining whether you can use the chemo administration codes for different medications. The document also reviews CMS policy and includes some nice examples.
