3.3.5.3 Contraceptive Capsules

The contraceptive capsule and the implantation of the contraceptive capsule may be reimbursed using procedure code J7307 and procedure code 11975 (insertion) or 11977 (removal with reinsertion).

Progesterone-containing subdermal contraceptive capsules (Norplant) were previously used for birth control. Although subdermal contraceptive capsules are no longer approved by the FDA, the removal of the implanted contraceptive capsule (diagnosis code V2543) may be considered for reimbursement with procedure code 11976 (removal).
