Single 1-gram injectable dose of cefoperazone sodium antibiotic

This code represents the administration of 1 gram of cefoperazone sodium, a third-generation cephalosporin antibiotic. It is used to treat various bacterial infections, particularly those caused by susceptible gram-negative and gram-positive organisms.

This code is used when cefoperazone sodium is administered parenterally (e.g., intravenously or intramuscularly) to a patient in an outpatient setting. Documentation should clearly specify the drug administered, the dosage (1 gram), and the route of administration.

• Ensure the documentation specifies "cefoperazone sodium" and not another cephalosporin.
• This code is for the drug itself, not the administration service; a separate administration code (e.g., CPT 96374) should be reported.
• Verify the dosage administered; if more or less than 1 gram, adjust units accordingly or use a different code if available for other dosages.
