📋 J9072 summary
J9072 is a HCPCS Level II J-code used to bill cyclophosphamide, (dr. reddy's), 5 mg, billed per 5 MG. The number of billing units to report depends on the dose administered and the NDC/package billed — use the calculator below.
⚠ An NDC↔HCPCS crosswalk and a published payment limit do not guarantee payer coverage or payment. Always verify the current payer policy and claim format before billing.
Cyclophosphamide is used to treat many types of cancer in adults and children, including malignant lymphomas (such as Hodgkin's disease and Burkitt's lymphoma), multiple myeloma, several forms of leukemia, breast cancer, ovarian cancer, neuroblastoma, retinoblastoma, and advanced mycosis fungoides (a type of skin lymphoma).
It is often given alongside other chemotherapy drugs rather than on its own.Oral and injectable powder formulations (but not the Cyclophosphamide Injection solution concentrate) are also approved for minimal change nephrotic syndrome — a kidney condition — in children who have not responded well to, or cannot tolerate, steroid therapy.
The injectable solution concentrate is approved for adult patients only due to its alcohol content, and is not approved for use in children.

🧮 Dosing & billing-units calculator HCPCS UNITS
One billing unit of J9072 = 5 mg. Enter a regimen to convert dose → billing units and project a full course.
Billing units = dose ÷ HCPCS unit size. Most payers require whole units — round per the payer's policy. “Est. Medicare pay” uses the current payment limit. For single-dose vials, drug discarded after administration may be separately billable with modifier JW (JZ when none is discarded) where allowed. Always verify payer-specific rounding before billing.
🔁 NDCs that bill under J9072 WITH EST. MEDICARE PAY
6 NDCs map to J9072. Bill units = how many HCPCS units one package represents. Est. pay / pkg = payment limit ($8.922/unit) × that package's bill units.
NDC→HCPCS mappings come from the CMS ASP NDC-HCPCS crosswalk; additional DME MAC / DMEPOS mappings come from PDAC and are labeled separately. NADAC from CMS (weekly). “Status” reflects the product's marketing / obsolete flag in the NDC directory. Presence or absence here does not determine Medicare coverage.

Figures are for the whole HCPCS code, which may cover uses beyond this drug. ⚠ CMS hides any figure covering fewer than 11 patients (a privacy rule), so totals — especially denials and low-volume codes — run a little low.
📊 What bills under J9072
J-codes are billing codes often used for drugs billed under the medical benefit. This connects the billing code to the NDC package records it covers, by ingredient and labeler.

⚠️ Practical billing caveats
A crosswalk is not coverage. An NDC mapping or a published payment limit does not guarantee a payer will cover or pay this code. Check the specific plan's policy.
Units ≠ milligrams. Bill the number of HCPCS units (dose ÷ the code's unit size), not the milligram dose. Use the calculator above.
Discarded drug. For single-dose vials, drug discarded after administration may be separately billable with modifier JW (and JZ when nothing is discarded) where the payer allows.
Rounding & partial units. Many payers require whole units; round per the payer's policy, not automatically up.
The code can cover more than this drug. Some HCPCS codes span multiple products or strengths — confirm the exact code for the product administered.
Figures lag. ASP limits change quarterly and utilization data are released with a delay. Verify against the current CMS files before billing.
