How the 11-digit form is made: The package segment has 1 digit, so one leading zero is added to it (5-4-1 → 5-4-2). Formatting the NDC does not by itself make it billable — the product, package and quantity must match what was dispensed or administered, and payer rules apply. Conversion rules

Billing references

What Med-Code can say about coding this product, and where each statement comes from. Nothing here is inferred from the name alone.

HCPCS codeMed-Code curated

No drug-specific HCPCS code in Med-Code’s directory for this product.

Med-Code's directory has no drug-specific HCPCS code for Ozempic. It is usually self-administered and billed by NDC through a pharmacy benefit.

If a payer accepts an unclassified code for it in a clinical setting, that would be J3490 (Unclassified drugs), with the NDC, quantity and often the invoice. Acceptance varies by payer.

Administration

Drug administration (CPT 96360–96549)

When a clinician administers the drug, the administration is reported separately. Codes in this range cover hydration, therapeutic injections and infusions, and chemotherapy or other complex drug administration. The right code depends on route, duration and drug type, and self-administered drugs are not billed this way.
