How are units of Pamidronate calculated, and could you provide an example of the correct billing of Pamidronate?

Pamidronate Disodium should be billed using the correct HCPC code and the current number of units should be entered for the prescribed dose. For example: the physician orders 90 mg of Aredia (Pamidronate Disodium) to be administered. The correct HCPC code is J2430 and the correct number of units is determined by the physician’s order. The calculation for this example follows: 90 mg divided by 30 mg = 3 units.
