Indications and Usage
TEFLARO is indicated for the treatment of patients with the following infections caused by susceptible isolates of the designated microorganisms.
Community-Acquired Bacterial Pneumonia: TEFLARO is indicated for the treatment of
community-acquired bacterial pneumonia (CABP) caused by susceptible isolates of the following Gram-positive and
Gram-negative microorganisms: Streptococcus pneumoniae (including cases with concurrent bacteremia),
Staphylococcus aureus (methicillin-susceptible isolates only), Haemophilus influenzae, Klebsiella pneumoniae,
Klebsiella oxytoca, and Escherichia coli.
Acute Bacterial Skin and Skin Structure Infections: TEFLARO is also indicated for the treatment of
acute bacterial skin and skin structure infections (ABSSSI) caused by susceptible isolates of the
following Gram-positive and Gram-negative microorganisms: Staphylococcus aureus (including
methicillin-susceptible and -resistant isolates), Streptococcus pyogenes, Streptococcus agalactiae, Escherichia coli,
Klebsiella pneumoniae, and Klebsiella oxytoca.
To reduce the development of drug-resistant bacteria and maintain the effectiveness of TEFLARO and other antibacterial drugs, TEFLARO should be used to treat only ABSSSI or CABP that are proven or strongly suspected to be caused by susceptible bacteria. Appropriate specimens for microbiological examinations should be obtained in order to isolate and identify the causative pathogens and to determine their susceptibility to ceftaroline. When culture and susceptibility information are available, they should be considered in selecting or modifying antibacterial therapy. In the absence of such data, local epidemiology and susceptibility patterns may contribute to the empiric selection of therapy.
TEFLARO
®Please see Important Safety Information on the following pages and enclosed
full Prescribing Information.
Dosage and Administration
The recommended dose of TEFLARO is 600 mg administered every 12 hours by intravenous (IV) infusion over 1 hour in patients ≥18 years of age. The duration of therapy should be guided by the severity and site of infection and the patient’s clinical and bacteriological progress.
The recommended dosage and administration by infection is described in the table below.
Storage
TEFLARO vials should be stored refrigerated at 2°C to 8°C (36°F to 46°F). Unrefrigerated, unreconstituted TEFLARO can be stored at temperatures not exceeding 25ºC (77ºF) for no more than 7 days.
Studies have shown that the constituted solution in the infusion bag should be used within 6 hours when stored at room temperature or within 24 hours when stored under refrigeration at 2°C to 8°C (36°F to 46°F).

Important Safety Information
Contraindications
TEFLARO is contraindicated in patients with known serious hypersensitivity to ceftaroline or other members of the cephalosporin class. Anaphylaxis and anaphylactoid reactions have been reported with ceftaroline.
Warnings and Precautions Hypersensitivity Reactions
Serious and occasionally fatal hypersensitivity (anaphylactic) reactions and serious skin reactions have been reported with beta-lactam antibacterials. Before therapy with TEFLARO is instituted, careful inquiry about previous hypersensitivity reactions to other cephalosporins, penicillins, or carbapenems should be made. If this product is to be given to a penicillin- or other beta-lactam-allergic patient, caution should be exercised because cross sensitivity among beta-lactam antibacterial agents has been clearly established.
If an allergic reaction to TEFLARO occurs, the drug should be discontinued. Serious acute hypersensitivity (anaphylactic) reactions require emergency treatment with epinephrine and other emergency measures that may include airway management, oxygen, intravenous fluids, antihistamines, corticosteroids, and vasopressors as clinically indicated.
Clostridium difficile-associated Diarrhea
Clostridium difficile-associated diarrhea (CDAD) has been reported for nearly all systemic antibacterial agents, including TEFLARO, and may range in severity from mild diarrhea to fatal colitis. Careful medical history is necessary because CDAD has been reported to occur more than 2 months after the administration
of antibacterial agents. If CDAD is suspected or confirmed, antibacterials not directed against C. difficile
should be discontinued, if possible.
Direct Coombs’ Test Seroconversion
Seroconversion from a negative to a positive direct Coombs’ test result occurred in 120/1114 (10.8%) of patients receiving TEFLARO and 49/1116 (4.4%) of patients receiving comparator drugs in the four pooled Phase 3 trials. No adverse reactions representing hemolytic anemia were reported in any treatment group. If anemia develops during or after treatment with TEFLARO, drug-induced hemolytic anemia should be considered. If drug-induced hemolytic anemia is suspected, discontinuation of TEFLARO should be considered and supportive care should be administered to the patient if clinically indicated.
TEFLARO
7
Development of Drug-Resistant Bacteria
Prescribing TEFLARO in the absence of a proven or strongly suspected bacterial infection is unlikely to provide benefit to the patient and increases the risk of the development of drug-resistant bacteria.
Adverse Reactions
In the four pooled Phase 3 clinical trials, serious adverse events occurred in 98/1300 (7.5%) of patients receiving TEFLARO and 100/1297 (7.7%) of patients receiving comparator drugs. Treatment discontinuation due to adverse events occurred in 35/1300 (2.7%) of patients receiving TEFLARO and 48/1297 (3.7%) of patients receiving comparator drugs with the most common adverse events leading to discontinuation being hypersensitivity for both treatment groups at a rate of 0.3% in the TEFLARO group and 0.5% in the comparator group.
No adverse reactions occurred in greater than 5% of patients receiving TEFLARO. The most common adverse reactions occurring in >2% of patients receiving TEFLARO in the pooled Phase 3 clinical trials were diarrhea, nausea, and rash.
Drug Interactions
No clinical drug-drug interaction studies have been conducted with TEFLARO. There is minimal potential for drug- drug interactions between TEFLARO and CYP450 substrates, inhibitors, or inducers; drugs known to undergo active renal secretion; and drugs that may alter renal blood flow.
Use in Specific Populations
TEFLARO has not been studied in pregnant women. Therefore, TEFLARO should only be used during pregnancy if the potential benefit justifies the potential risk to the fetus.
It is not known whether ceftaroline is excreted in human milk. Because many drugs are excreted in human milk, caution should be exercised when TEFLARO is administered to a nursing woman.
Safety and effectiveness in pediatric patients have not been established.
Because elderly patients, those ≥65 years of age, are more likely to have decreased renal function and ceftaroline is excreted primarily by the kidney, care should be taken in dose selection in this age group and it may be useful to monitor renal function. Dosage adjustment for elderly patients should therefore be based on renal function.
Dosage adjustment is required in patients with moderate (CrCl >30 to ≤50 mL/min) or severe (CrCl ≥15 to ≤30 mL/min) renal impairment and in patients with end-stage renal disease (CrCl <15 mL/min).
The pharmacokinetics of ceftaroline in patients with hepatic impairment have not been established.
TEFLARO Reimbursement
Coding
ICD-9-CM Diagnosis Codes Providers should use current ICD-9-CM codes to report a patient’s diagnosis on claim submissions. Correct coding is the responsibility of the provider submitting a claim for the item or service. Please check with the payor to verify coding or special billing requirements. Below is a list of possible ICD-9-CM diagnosis codes that may be reasonably related to a diagnosis within the product’s approved label:
We recommend verifying a health plan’s coding policies prior to contacting the Forest Reimbursement Hotline. Note: Information in parentheses added for clarification.
ICD-9-CM Diagnosis Code1 Description
481-482.XX Diseases of the respiratory system—bacterial pneumonia-designated pathogens only
680.XX-686.XX Infections of skin and subcutaneous tissue (designated pathogens limited to ABSSSI)
041.09 Other Streptococcus (use for Streptococcus pyogenes and
Streptococcus agalactiae only)
041.11 Methicillin-susceptible Staphylococcus aureus (MSSA)
041.12 Staphylococcus aureus (methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus [MRSA]) 041.30 Klebsiella pneumoniae (skin infection)
041.4 Escherichia coli (skin infection)
041.89 Other Gram-negative organisms (use for Klebsiella oxytoca only) 998.5X Postoperative infection
Forest Laboratories, Inc. cannot guarantee payment of any claim. Coding, coverage, and reimbursement may vary significantly by the payor, plan, patient, and setting of care. Actual coverage and reimbursement decisions are made by individual payors following the receipt of claims. For additional information, customers should consult with their payors for all relevant coding, reimbursement, and coverage requirements. It is the sole responsibility of the provider to select the proper code and ensure the accuracy of all claims submitted for reimbursement. All services must be medically appropriate and properly supported in the patient medical record.
ICD-9-CM Procedure Codes Providers should use current ICD-9-CM procedure codes to report a major procedure when it is performed in the hospital inpatient setting. At least one ICD-9-CM procedure code is required on hospital inpatient claims along with the appropriate diagnosis codes. Correct coding is the responsibility of the provider submitting a claim for the item or service. Please check with the payor to verify coding or special billing requirements. Below is an example of a possible ICD-9-CM procedure code related to a procedure performed within the product’s approved label:
National Drug Codes (NDCs) NDCs help physicians and payors identify specific product package sizes. TEFLARO is supplied in single-use, clear glass vials containing either 600 mg or 400 mg of sterile ceftaroline fosamil powder. The NDC numbers for TEFLARO are listed below:
Some payors require physicians to use 11-digit NDCs when submitting a drug on a claim form. Converting the 10-digit NDC for TEFLARO to an 11-digit NDC requires the use of a leading zero in the product code section of the NDC (ie, the middle section):
TEFLARO Package Size NDC
600 mg individual vial 0456-0600-01 Carton containing 10 vials 0456-0600-10

TEFLARO Reimbursement
Healthcare Common Procedure Coding System (HCPCS) Level II Code HCPCS codes are 5-digit
alphanumeric codes that are assigned to drugs by the Centers for Medicare* and Medicaid Services (CMS).
When billing for a drug, payors require physicians to indicate, on the claim, the quantity of product administered to the patient, expressed in the number of units described by the HCPCS code.
CMS has assigned TEFLARO a new, unique J-Code: J0712. This code is effective January 1, 2012 and should
be used for reimbursement of services provided in hospital outpatient settings, physician office settings, and freestanding IV infusion centers. Note that CMS discontinued and deleted HCPCS Code C9282 for TEFLARO and replaced it with the permanent HCPCS Code J0712.
Billing for Multiple Doses in a Single Day In the outpatient settings in which TEFLARO is covered under Medicare Part B (ie, hospital outpatient, physician offices, and freestanding IV infusion centers), the two administered doses should be billed at the same time. The medical necessity for the two doses needs to be documented on the billing form (ie, the patient has one of the indicated conditions and dosing regimen is called for by the label). Clinics should refer to the TEFLARO label for appropriate dosing.

Billing for Wastage Physicians and hospitals are expected to schedule patients in such a way that they can use drugs most efficiently, in a clinically appropriate manner. Drug wastage may be documented in the patient’s medical record with the date, time, amount wasted, and reason for wastage. Each payor may have different policies regarding drug wastage and may require physicians and hospitals to include the amount of product administered and the amount discarded when line-item billing for TEFLARO. It is recommended to verify the drug wastage requirements of the specific health plan. Finally, some payors request that physicians and hospitals identify any discarded product by appending the JW modifier to the claim.

Enter appropriate number of service units:
Using J0712, report the number of units of TEFLARO used To report the number of units of TEFLARO wasted, append

Forest Laboratories, Inc. cannot guarantee payment of any claim. Coding, coverage, and reimbursement may vary significantly by the payor, plan, patient, and setting of care. Actual coverage and reimbursement decisions are made by individual payors following the receipt of claims. For additional information, customers should consult with their payors for all relevant coding, reimbursement, and coverage requirements. It is the sole responsibility of the provider to select the proper code and ensure the accuracy of all claims submitted for reimbursement. All services must be medically appropriate and properly supported in the patient medical record.
Current Procedural Terminology (CPT) Drug Administration Code CPT codes are 5-digit numeric codes established
by the American Medical Association (AMA) that describe professional medical procedures and services. TEFLARO is administered every 12 hours as an intravenous (IV) infusion over 1 hour. The following possible CPT codes may be appropriate to report TEFLARO administration services based on site of service:
Revenue Codes Revenue codes capture facility cost data by department, which the facility uses for cost-reporting purposes. Some payors request that providers report revenue codes on claim forms. Hospital outpatient departments
may report the following possible revenue codes for TEFLARO2:
— Payors may require physicians to report a different drug administration code when billing for TEFLARO. It is recommended to verify a health plan’s coding policies. The Forest Reimbursement Hotline can provide healthcare professionals with answers to general questions about TEFLARO coverage and reimbursement at: 1-855-284-1818

Payor Coverage
Medicare
— TEFLARO is likely to be eligible for coverage under Medicare Part A when it is used in the hospital inpatient setting of care, if the drug represents a cost to the hospital, and the drug is reasonable and necessary for the diagnosis or treatment of the illness or injury for which it is administered, according to accepted standards of medical practice
— TEFLARO may be covered by Medicare Part A when it is used in a Skilled Nursing Facility (SNF) if: the drug represents a cost to the SNF; is necessary for the diagnosis or treatment of the illness or injury for which it is administered, according to accepted standards of medical practice; and the patient meets the eligibility requirements. The SNF eligibility requirements include that a patient must have been an inpatient of a hospital for a medically necessary stay of at least three consecutive calendar days, and must have been transferred to a participating SNF within 30 days after hospital discharge. In order to be covered, the extended-care services received must be needed for a condition which was treated during the patient’s qualifying hospital stay, or for a condition which arose while in the SNF for treatment of a condition for which the beneficiary was previously treated in a hospital. If all of these requirements are met regarding treatment, TEFLARO is likely to be eligible for coverage under
Medicare Part A3
— Drugs administered by a physician, in either the physician’s office or a freestanding clinic, which represent a cost to the physician’s practice, are generally covered under Medicare Part B if (1) they are reasonable and necessary for the diagnosis or treatment of the illness or injury for which they are administered, according to accepted standards of medical practice; (2) they are not usually self-administered; and (3) they meet the requirements for coverage of items as incident to a physician’s service. The general requirements for coverage under the “incident to” provision are that the drug be of a form that is not usually self-administered, that the drug be furnished by a physician, and that the drug must be administered by a physician or by auxiliary personnel employed by the physician and
under the physician’s personal supervision.4 Based on these criteria, drugs such as TEFLARO, when
administered by physicians in either the physician’s office or freestanding clinic, are likely to be eligible for Medicare Part B coverage and payment

— TEFLARO may be covered by Medicare Part B when administered in a hospital outpatient department if the drug represents a cost to the hospital; is reasonable and necessary for the diagnosis or treatment of an illness or injury for which it is administered, according to accepted standards of medical practice; and is not usually self-administered
— Medicare has not issued a unique National Coverage Determination (NCD) for TEFLARO. Local Medicare administrative contractors (formerly Fiscal Intermediaries and Carriers) may make local coverage decisions (LCDs) for TEFLARO. Some local contractors may publish LCDs or other coverage instruction through articles and bulletins that relate to TEFLARO. However, the absence of a published coverage policy does not mean that
there is no coverage for TEFLARO5
— For more information on Medicare coverage of TEFLARO, contact the Forest Reimbursement Hotline at: 1-855-284-1818
Medicaid
— TEFLARO is eligible for coverage under most state Medicaid programs. However, coverage will vary from state to state as each Medicaid program establishes its own eligibility standards and determines the type, amount, duration, and scope of services. Some Medicaid programs may cover TEFLARO as a medical benefit, pharmacy benefit, or both. In addition, state Medicaid programs may apply coverage and utilization restrictions such as prior authorization
— For more information on Medicaid coverage of TEFLARO, contact the Forest Reimbursement Hotline at: 1-855-284-1818
Commercial Insurers
— Third-party payors, including HMO plans, managed care organizations, indemnity plans, and others may provide coverage for TEFLARO. However, specific coverage requirements and restrictions depend on a patient’s benefits and will vary based on plan type and provider site of service. Some payors establish formal published policies, but the lack of a published policy from a particular payor does not mean that TEFLARO is not covered by that payor. In addition, commercial payors may cover physician-administered drugs as a medical benefit, a pharmacy benefit, or both. Each benefit is administered separately and may have different deductible, co-payment, and/or coinsurance structures

Payor Reimbursement
Medicare Part A
— TEFLARO Hospital Inpatient Department Services paid under the Medicare Hospital Inpatient
Prospective Payment System (PPS) are assigned to a Medicare Severity Diagnosis Related Group (MS-DRG). Each MS-DRG is linked to a payment amount that represents the payment for all services provided during a patient’s stay in the hospital. The cost of treatment for TEFLARO is bundled into the
MS-DRG payment and is not eligible for separate reimbursement from Medicare in the inpatient setting6
— TEFLARO Skilled Nursing Facility SNF services are paid by Medicare under a prospective payment
system (PPS). The SNF PPS bundles all services into a per diem rate, which includes most administered drugs. Payment for TEFLARO would be bundled into the per diem rate and is not eligible for separate
reimbursement from Medicare in the Skilled Nursing Facility Setting7

All services must be medically appropriate and properly supported in the patient medical record.
Medicare Part B Payment for TEFLARO and related administration services will vary by setting of care. — TEFLARO Physician Clinic For most physician-administered products eligible for Medicare coverage,
Medicare sets an allowable payment amount, updated quarterly, at Average Sales Price (ASP) +6%.8,9
Medicare reimbursement is based on the lesser of this allowable amount or actual charges as follows: physician clinics are reimbursed for 80% of the allowable amount, and the patient or patient’s secondary
insurer is responsible for the remaining 20% coinsurance10
— TEFLARO: Hospital Outpatient Department Services paid under the Medicare Hospital Outpatient
Prospective Payment System (OPPS) are assigned to an Ambulatory Payment Classification (APC) code. Each APC code is linked to a payment amount. Multiple APCs may be billed per single patient encounter. Certain newly FDA-approved drugs and biologics may be granted transitional pass-through status and a unique C-code, with the drug being reimbursed at ASP +6%, if CMS deems these drugs new for Medicare purposes. In addition, separate payments are made for some drugs, biologicals, and devices. Most drugs that do not have pass-through status, and are separately reimbursed by Medicare under the APC system, are paid at ASP +4% in 2012 and adjusted quarterly. TEFLARO has been granted pass-through status for
Calendar Year (CY) 2012. As a result, in CY 2012 TEFLARO will be reimbursed at ASP +6%.11
8 The ASP is calculated quarterly based on data sent to CMS from the manufacturers within 30 days of the close of the quarter. Since CMS releases
ASP pricing information 30 days before the beginning of each calendar quarter, the ASP data from one quarter will not be able to factor into the very next quarter. Contractors may contact CMS for payment limits on new drugs not included in the quarterly ASP or Not Otherwise Classified (NOC) files available on the CMS website. If the payment limit is available, contractors will substitute the limit provided by
CMS for the pricing based on WAC or invoice pricing. For more information, refer to Medicare Claims Processing Manual, Chapter 17, Sections 20.1.2, 20.1.3, and 20.2 and visit http://www.cms. gov/McrPartBDrugAvgSalesPrice/01_overview.asp#TopOfPage. Accessed September 28, 2010.

— TEFLARO Administration Services: Physician Medicare reimbursement for TEFLARO drug
administration services provided in the physician setting is based on the national physician fee schedule that is adjusted for geographic variations and updated annually. Medicare reimbursement is based on the lesser of the adjusted fee schedule amount or actual charges as follows: physicians are reimbursed for 80% of the allowable amount, and the patient or patient’s secondary insurer is
responsible for the remaining 20% coinsurance12
— TEFLARO Administration Services: Hospital Outpatient Department Drug administration CPT codes
are assigned to APCs according to their clinical and resource requirements. Several drug administration codes may map to a single APC. APCs for drug administration services are updated yearly by CMS For more information on Medicare reimbursement for TEFLARO, contact the Forest Reimbursement Hotline at: 1-855-284-1818.
Medicaid Medicaid payment for TEFLARO and associated drug administration services typically varies by setting of care. Also, Medicaid is always the payor of last resort; therefore, it is secondary to Medicare or any third party that may be liable for medical payments or medical support on the beneficiary’s behalf.
— TEFLARO Physician Physician Reimbursement for TEFLARO provided in the physician office setting
varies by state Medicaid program. Some Medicaid programs may base reimbursement on ASP +4%. Others may base reimbursement on a percent mark-up or mark-down of ASP, AWP, or WAC. Drug reimbursement rates may be updated on a monthly, quarterly, or yearly basis. Until the ASP is established for TEFLARO, Medicaid programs may utilize a temporary reimbursement rate such as WAC, similar
to Medicare. Drug administration rates vary by state Medicaid program, with many states basing
reimbursement on a statewide fee schedule that may be updated on a quarterly or annual basis
— TEFLARO Facility such as Hospital Outpatient Department, Hospital Inpatient Department, or Skilled
Nursing Facility Reimbursement for TEFLARO provided in hospital outpatient, hospital inpatient, or SNF settings also varies by state Medicaid program. For instance, payment may be based on a percentage of
ASP, AWP, WAC, or facility-specific cost-to-charge ratios. Drug administration rates may be based on a
fee schedule, contracted rates, cost-to-charge ratios, or facility-specific per diem methodologies For more information on Medicaid reimbursement for TEFLARO, contact the Forest Reimbursement Hotline at: 1-855-284-1818.
