will 90663 be invalid? Also do we know if the government will supply these flu vaccines?
I am not sure if the 90663 will be invalid. I think we will need to research the deleted codes, or wait for additonal information.
Some states have the EPSDT program for certain age groups, and this is provided from the state. This information is only availble, I am thinking by the individual state guidelines, and specific programs. I have seen state funded vaccines, through programs under Medicaid. This is important information as it is a crucial part to billing for services, and how to bill them if the vaccines are government funded.
We have already recieved a partial shipment of flu vaccine, how much longer before we get an update on the codes??
What CPT code will be appropriate for the combination vaccine seasonal flu and H1N1.
What administration code should be used for these new codes??
I am trying to get clarification as well on the appropriate CPT code for the combo vaccine that has both seasonal flu and H1N1??

I am also questioning code 90670 keeps getting rejected as per the doctors office this is valid and more expensive then code 90669?
Please help..
what is the correct flu shot for this year. Because whether is medicare or commercial payers, they are rejecting flu shot 90663 for payment. Please help us to get clarification as well as for administration code.
