What 95117 covers

This service covers two or more subcutaneous allergen immunotherapy injections in one session, such as prescribed injections from separate pollen and dust mite extract vials. A nurse or medical assistant commonly administers the shots in an allergist’s, primary care, or ENT office under a physician’s immunotherapy plan. The service includes drawing up the ordered doses, giving the injections, and observing the patient afterward for local or systemic reactions. Patients may receive injections during buildup or maintenance treatment.

Report one unit for a session with two or more injections, regardless of the number of shots; use 95115 for a single injection. Record the extracts used, doses, injection sites, observation, and any reaction. This administration code excludes preparation and provision of the allergenic extract. When separately furnished and documented, extract preparation may be reported under the appropriate antigen code, with units based on doses prepared. CMS assigns no physician work value to 95117. Medicare treats it as an incident-to service, billable only when performed under physician supervision; the supervising physician must be in the office suite and immediately available during the injections.
