I code and bill for a small primary care practice. We have a good handful of Medicare claims denying our flu vaccines due to needing the invoice. I've called Medicare/Palmetto GBA and they have been no help. It's my understanding that Medicare does not accept paper claims. I wouldn't be able to send our invoices with these claims for that reason. Is there any other way around this? Surely there is a missing piece to the puzzle somewhere. And yes, the vaccines are going out with the correct G0008 admin as well as the NDC number attached to the appropriate flu vaccine. Any guidance is appreciated!
 
I've never heard of this; how frustrating! What does the actual denial code say? Just that you need to submit the invoice??
