What 90472 covers

90472 represents administration of each additional vaccine after the first intramuscular or subcutaneous vaccine during an encounter. It covers the administration work, not the vaccine product; report the product separately when applicable. Nurses and other clinical staff commonly perform the service in an office or clinic. For pediatric visits, the standard administration codes may be appropriate when the face-to-face physician or qualified health professional counseling circumstance for 90460 and 90461 is not present.

Report 90471 for the first vaccine and 90472 for each additional vaccine administered by the intramuscular or subcutaneous route. Do not count the components of a combination vaccine as separate administrations. Documentation should identify the vaccine products, routes, and which administration was first versus additional. As an add-on, 90472 must be reported with a primary procedure and CMS payment is within that procedure’s global period. Under the CMS incident-to rule, report it only when performed under physician supervision.

This summary was written with AI assistance from CMS physician fee schedule data and checked against the CMS billing rules shown here. Rates on this page come directly from CMS files.

90472 billing questions

Which code reports the first intramuscular or subcutaneous vaccine?

Use 90471 for the first vaccine and 90472 for each additional vaccine administered by either route.

Can 90472 be reported without 90471?

No. It is an add-on code and must be reported with a qualifying primary procedure; for this administration sequence, report 90471 for the first vaccine.

Is the vaccine product included in 90472?

No. 90472 represents administration. Report the vaccine product separately when applicable.

How should a combination vaccine be counted?

Count the combination vaccine as one administered vaccine, not as separate administrations for each component.

What documentation supports reporting 90472?

Document the vaccine administered, its route, and that it was an additional vaccine after the first. CMS requires physician supervision for incident-to billing.

Where these rates come from

FeeBase calculates base physician payments from CMS work, practice-expense and malpractice RVUs, adjusted by each locality’s geographic indexes and the conversion factor. Services without a published rate are labeled, never given a made-up amount. Amounts are Medicare allowed amounts before claim adjustments: not a patient’s bill or a commercial rate.
