Immunization Administration for
Vaccines/Toxoids
Codes 90465, 90466, 90467, 90468 deleted and replaced
 with new immunization administration codes 90460 and
90461 for patients 18 years of age and under who receive
                       counseling.

• 90460- immunization administration through 18 years of
   age via any route of administration, with counseling by
  physician or other qualified health care professional; first
     vaccine/toxoid component.          Work RVU= 0.15
 • 90461- each additional vaccine/toxoid component (List
    separately in addition to code for primary procedure)
                             Work RVU= 0.15
Copyright 2010 | Advanced Billing Consultants, Inc.



90460 and 90461 (counseling) vs. 90472-90474
(without counseling or over 18
        • Use 90460 for each vaccine administrated
  • For vaccines with multiple components (combination
   vaccines), report 90460 in conjunction with 90461 for
      each additional component in a given vaccine.

                               • Rationale:
       Each component requires specific counseling and we did not
   want to      have disincentives to the use of combination vaccines.
       The work of counseling issue does not apply to 90471-90474:
         they remain per vaccine and by route of administration.

                           • Use 11047 in conjunction with 11044
Copyright 2010 | Advanced Billing Consultants, Inc.




Active Wound Care Management
• Active would care procedures are preformed to remove
 devitalized and/or necrotic tissue and promote healing.
 Provider is required to have direct (one-on-one) patient
                          contact.

       • (Don not report 97597-97602 in conjunction with 11042-117047 for the same

    suction, sharp selective debridement with scissors, scalpel and
    forceps), open wound, (e.g., fibrin, devitalized epidermis and/or
  dermis, exudate, debris, biofilm), Removal of devitalized tissue from

Copyright 2010 | Advanced Billing Consultants, Inc.




Active Wound Management
                           Rationale
• In support of the changes in the Debridement subsection, the Active
 Wound Care Management codes 97597, 97598 were also revised to
  reflect the spectrum of debridement at the surface levels while still
 accounting for the area. Reference to anesthesia services were also
  removed since services can be supplied regardless of anesthesia
                               services.

• When performing an endoscopy on a patient who is scheduled and
     prepared for a total colonoscopy, if the splenic flexure, due to

External Cardiovascular Device Monitoring Code Deletions
                      Cardiology
       Telephonic transmission codes 93012 and 93014 have been
     deleted. Telephonic transmission services are now reported with
     coeds 93268-93272, which have been revised to include remote
                        download up to 30 days.

         The cardiovascular monitoring services guidelines have been
 revised         and relocated to a new section titled Cardiovascular
                      Monitoring      Services.

• (93012, 93014 have been deleted. To report telephonic transmission of post-
         symptom electrocardiogram rhythm strips, see 93268-93272)
