Drug Utilization Review Codes

DUR codes are sometimes required to override specific rejections. These codes change from prescription to prescription, so it is usually safer to call the insurance company and get the appropriate sequence of codes from them. Additionally, insurance reject messages might also specify what code they want in what field. DUR codes can sometimes be referred to in a reject as HX PPS codes.

A DUR code is comprised of three parts; the Conflict code, the Professional Service code, and the Result of Service code. To send the DUR code, go to any SIG line and put the following:

/DURxxyyzz
xx = Conflict code NCPDP Field 439-E4
yy = Professional Service Code (Formerly Intervention code) NCPDP field 440-E5
zz = Result of Service Code (Formerly Outcome code) NCPDP field 441-E6

NOTE: If someone needs to send just the conflict, intervention, or outcome codes, they may use /DUC, /DUI, or /DUO and the respective code.
