What is HRT code? - Vitality Balance Clinic

HRT code refers to the medical codes used to bill for hormone replacement therapy (HRT). HRT involves administering hormones to supplement low hormone levels, usually in menopausal or andropausal individuals. Some key points about HRT billing codes:

• HRT codes cover the hormones themselves as well as their administration and monitoring. Specific codes exist for estrogen, testosterone, progesterone, etc.
• Diagnosis codes validate the medical necessity of HRT and link to specific symptomology.
• Procedure codes report infusion, injection, lab work, or interpretation related to HRT regimens.

Some common HRT codes include:

• Estrogen: J1950, J9217
• Testosterone: J1070, J3121
• Progesterone: J3490, J1050
• GNH agonists: J1953, J9225
• Lab services: 36415, 80061
• Injections: 96372, J3472

When billing for HRT, specific ICD-10 diagnosis codes help convey medical necessity:

• E28.310 - Symptomatic premature menopause
• E29.1 - Testicular hypofunction
• N95.1 - Menopausal mood disturbances
