Creating New Reimbursement Numbers for Medical Devices
Medical devices available through a pharmacy and potentially eligible for reimbursement from payers are generally labeled with an 11-digit reimbursement number, typically with a National Health Related Item Code (NHRIC), which looks similar to a National Drug Code (NDC) in format and number of digits. The 11-digit reimbursement number is derived from the 10-digit NHRIC or NDC following NCPDP standards, to create a single format code for reimbursement. Pharmacies and payers rely on these reimbursement numbers for device reimbursement in the pharmacy setting.
