What is vaccination?

Vaccination is a crucial method of protecting individuals against harmful diseases by utilizing the body's natural defenses to build resistance. Vaccines work by training the immune system to create antibodies without causing the disease itself. 

Cpt code for vaccine administration 2024

The CPT code for COVID-19 vaccine administration in 2024 is 90480. This code should be reported for each Medicare patient vaccinated in their home on that day. Additionally, to bill for the additional payment for administering the COVID-19 vaccine to Medicare patients in their homes under certain circumstances, you should use the HCPCS Level II code M0201.

Cpt code for vaccine refusal

When a patient refuses immunization, you should assign the ICD-10 code Z28.1, which indicates "Immunization not carried out because of patient decision for reasons of belief or group pressure".

Cpt code for vaccine counseling

In most cases, vaccine counseling is bundled with the administration code (e.g., 90460, 90480) - no separate code needed. Exceptions exist for stand-alone counseling (vaccine not given) on a different date, with specific Medicaid codes (G0310-G0314).

The CPT code for the Bexsero vaccine is 90620. This code is used when a provider administers a meningococcal recombinant protein and outer membrane vesicle vaccine, such as Bexsero, to prevent meningococcal disease like Neisseria meningitides.

Cpt code for vaccine visit

A single code (e.g., 90480 for COVID-19 vaccine) covers the entire visit, including injection and basic checks.

• Counseling for patients under 18 is usually bundled with the administration code (e.g., 90460).
• Separate codes (90471-90474) apply for adults without counseling.
