COVID-19 vaccine and Monoclonal Antibody Billing for Part B Providers

Guidelines for COVID-19 vaccines and monoclonal antibodies Billing

The patient can get the vaccines including of booster dose and or additional doses.

The patient administered the vaccine with no out of pocket cost for both vaccines and administration of the vaccines.

Vaccinate everyone, including the uninsured, regardless of coverage or network status.

When COVID-19 vaccine and monoclonal antibody doses are provided by the government without charge, only bill for the vaccine administration. Don't include the vaccine codes on the claim when the vaccines are free.

If the patient is enrolled in a Medicare Advantage (MA) plan, submit your COVID-19 vaccine and monoclonal antibody infusion claims to Original Medicare in 2020 and 2021. On or after January 1, 2022, claims for vaccine or mAb administrations for Medicare Advantage enrollees should be submitted to the Medicare Advantage plan. 

For services provided to Medicare Advantage enrollees on or after January 1, 2022, contact the Medicare Advantage for guidance on coverage and billing.

Usage of CPT Index - Instructions

The alphabetic index is not a substitute for the main text of the CPT codebook. Even if only one code is present, the coder must refer to the main term to ensure that the code is selected accurately and correctly to identify the services rendered. Main Terms The index is organized by main terms. Each main term can stand alone or can be followed by up to three modifying terms. There are four primary classes of main entries, Procedures or Services - E.g, Scopic, Anastomosis, Splint, Opening Organ or Other Anatomical Site - E.g, Knee, Arm, Ear, Tibia, Colon Conditions - E.g, Abscess, Entropion, Tetralogy of Fallot. Synonyms, Eponyms, and Abbreviations. - ECG, EEG, PET, Brock Operations, Clagett Procdures Modifying Terms The main term may be followed by up to three indented terms that modify the terms they follow. EG. The main term "Endoscopy" is subdivided by the anatomical sites in which the procedure is used. And within these anatomical sites, the specific purpose of the pr

Additional Information About Modifiers

Sequencing of modifiers  How can that be if the modifiers used were accurate?  There is an order to reporting modifiers and there are three categories that modifier usage fall under:  1. Pricing  Pricing modifiers are always sequenced “before” payment modifiers and/or location modifiers.   The only exception to this rule is when a global surgery package is involved.  For example, you would code modifier 58 first and modifier 82 second in a global surgery.  A few examples of pricing modifiers are: 22, 26, 50, 52, 53, 62, 80, and P1-P6.   2. Payment   Payment modifiers alert the insurance carrier that there is a special situation within the claim  Some examples of payment modifiers would be: 24, 25, 51, 57, 58, 59, 76, and 78.  3. Location  Examples of location modifiers are: E1-E4, FA, F1-F9, LC, LD, LT, RT, RC, TA, and T1-T9.  The general order of sequencing modifiers is ( 1) pricing (2) payment (3) location. Location modifiers, in all coding situations, are coded “last”.  If you code

Domiciliary, Rest Home, or Custodial Care Services CPT codes 99324 - 99337 Domiciliary, Rest Home (e.g. Boarding Home), or Custodial Care Services, are used to report E/M services to individuals residing in a facility which provides room, board, and other personal assistance services, generally on a long-term basis.  These codes are also used to report E/M services in an assisted living facility.
