Prolonged Chemotherapy Infusion Into An Artery, Via Pump

South Carolina rates for HCPCS 96425

This covers giving chemotherapy as a slow, continuous infusion directly into an artery over more than eight hours, delivered through a portable or surgically implanted pump rather than a simple IV bag. Delivering the medication directly into an artery that feeds a specific organ, such as the liver, allows a higher, more concentrated dose to reach the target area while limiting exposure elsewhere in the body. It is most often used for cancers that have spread to the liver.
