My patient had a brief exam with provider (Nurse Practitioner) before receiving the HPV vaccine from an RN, the only reason for the visit. HPI and exam are documented by the provider, as well as discussion of risks, etc. Provider coded 99212 in addition to admin & vaccine. Is that appropriate? Or should we be billing for the admin & vaccine only?

Thanks for your input.
 
I'm not sure if you received an answer to your question, but no you can not bill a E/M code for this type of visit. The administration code covers that portion.
