HCPCS Code B9002: Enteral Nutrition Infusion Pump, Any Type

Yes. HCPCS code B9002 is used to bill for an enteral nutrition infusion pump, any type, whether it’s the patient’s first device or a replacement. To establish coverage, providers must complete proper documentation, often supported by a written coding verification review to confirm medical necessity.

In many cases, yes. Most payers require prior authorization to ensure that the enteral nutrition provided meets coverage criteria. This often includes documentation of why a gravity-fed enteral feeding tube is not sufficient, such as risks of reflux, aspiration, or other complications. Always check individual payer requirements.

Medicare does not separately reimburse loaner pumps; coverage applies only to one pump per patient at a time. Some commercial payers may allow temporary devices while awaiting replacement, but this varies and must be confirmed with the payer.
