CPT code list

ReimbursementCodes.com is an online HCPCS Reimbursement code pricing database providing the most up to date, accurate reimbursement information for CPT code list information which may be administered in a provider's office, clinic or home health agency using current CMS (formerly HCFA) guidelines.

What is a Reimbursement Code?

Reimbursement codes are a component of the CMS (formerly HCFA) Common Procedure Coding System (HCPCS) and Current Procedural Terminology (CPT) for Vaccines, Immune Globulins and Toxoids. Reimbursement codes are designed to bill for drugs that are administered in the provider's office, clinic or home health agency either injected sub-cutaneously, intramuscularly, or intravenously as well selected orally administered chemotherapeutic agents. The reimbursement only covers the cost of the medication using CMS (formerly HCFA) guidelines. Office charges associated with the administration of the medication are billed separately.

What is a Vaccine/Immune Globulin/Toxoid Code?

CPT code list (Current Procedural Terminology)

CPT code list for Immune Globulins, Vaccines & Toxoids. Immune globulin products listed include broad-spectrum and anti-infective immune globulins, antitoxins, and various isoantibodies. Vaccines/Toxoids: Multiple codes for a particular vaccine/toxoid are provided in the CPT code list when the schedule (number of doses or timing) differs for two or more products of the same vaccine type (e.g., hepatitis A, HiB) or the vaccine product is available in more than one chemical formulation, dosage, or route of administration. A separate code list is available for combination vaccines (eg, DTP-Hib, DtaP-Hib, HepB-Hib). It is inappropriate to code each component of a combination vaccine separately. If a specific vaccine code is not available, the unlisted procedure code should be reported, until a new CPT code list becomes available.
