Hello!
I need some clarification. CPT guidelines states "For immunization administration of any vaccine that is not accompanied by face to face physician or qualified health care professional counseling to the patient/family OR for administration of vaccines to patients over 18 years of age, report codes 90471-90474.
So, if a patient under the age of 18 comes in for vaccines but no counseling is performed, 90471 would be used?
Thank you,
Leah
