Allergy and immunology

About 95115: Single allergen immunotherapy injection administration

Administration of one subcutaneous allergen immunotherapy injection during an encounter, reported separately from any preparation and supply of the allergenic extract.

This service is the administration of one allergy shot, usually into the upper arm, during a build-up or maintenance schedule. Staff observe the patient for a reaction after the injection. Nurses or medical assistants commonly administer shots in allergy, ENT, and primary care offices under a physician’s treatment plan. The extract may have been prepared by that practice or supplied by another allergy practice.

Report one unit for an encounter in which one allergen immunotherapy injection is given; use 95117 when two or more are given during the encounter. The administration code excludes preparation and supply of the extract, which may be reported separately when performed and supported. Document the extract or vial, dose, concentration, injection site, observation, and any reaction. CMS classifies this as an incident-to service, payable only when performed under physician supervision; its physician work RVU is zero. For Medicare, use the separate administration and extract preparation codes rather than the combined injection-and-extract codes.

95115 billing questions

When should 95117 be reported instead of 95115?

Use 95117 when two or more allergen immunotherapy injections are given during an encounter, such as injections from separate vials. Do not report one unit of 95115 for each shot or report both codes for the same set of injections.

Does 95115 include the allergenic extract?

No. It covers administration of the injection. Preparation and supply may be reported separately when performed and documented, such as with 95165 for doses prepared for immunotherapy.

Can an E/M visit be billed on the same day as an allergy shot?

A significant, separately identifiable E/M service beyond the routine pre-injection check may be reported with modifier 25 on the E/M code. Do not separately report 99211 solely for the routine check before the shot.

Who can perform the injection for Medicare billing?

Clinical staff such as nurses or medical assistants commonly administer it. CMS treats 95115 as an incident-to service, so physician supervision requirements must be met.

Should 96372 be used for allergy shots?

No. Allergen immunotherapy injections have dedicated administration codes: 95115 for one injection and 95117 for two or more during an encounter.

Where these rates come from

FeeBase calculates base physician payments from CMS work, practice-expense, and malpractice RVUs, adjusted by each locality’s geographic indices and the applicable conversion factor. Unavailable or separately priced services are labeled rather than assigned a made-up amount.
