Billing for vaccine administration services
- Only one initial administration code can be
reported per day, regardless of vaccine administration method.
- CPT
codes 90465, 90467, 90471 and 90473 are initial administration codes
and cannot be billed together on the same date of service.
- When
one of these initial administration codes is billed, all additional
vaccine administration services should be reported with the appropriate
add-on code (i.e. 90466, 90468, 90472 or 90474). Reference your
CPT book for coding guidelines if you have additional questions.
- When
billing for multiple vaccine administrations, bill each
administration code on a separate line, with one unit and the
corresponding diagnosis code for the vaccine given. This is needed in
order to properly apply benefits.
Vaccine codes and medical coverage by plan
- Self-funded plan coverage may vary by employer group.
- Coinsurance may apply.
- GL = Recommended in the Priority Health Preventive Health Care Guidelines; deductible (if applicable) will be waived. If not listed in the guidelines, the deductible will apply.
- VFC = Covered, BUT you must use the VFC program for members under 19 years of age
