Wiki Immunization Question

[davisph]

Can anyone advise on an adacel immunization??

I think it should be billed like 90460, 90461X2 90715
Another coder is telling me that the adacel has 5 components but I only see three in the description Diptheria, Acellular Pertussis and tetanus?? Which would indicate 3 admin fees can anyone shed light on this??

Adacel has 3 componets so you bill 90460, 90461 (2), 90715

Your doing it correctly.

you are doing it correctly, your co-worker is thinking of Pentacel - that is the one with 5 components.
