Medicare is requiring providers to report code Q2038 for the Fluzone influenza vaccine in place of CPT code 90658.
Now for a question....the description of code 90658 is for the influenza vaccine, split virus The terminology says nothing about preservative free. The problem is that some Fluzone vaccine such as those who come in single dose units are preservative free.
So the question is, if the preservative free version is given, do you report Q2038 or code 90656? The description of Q2038 is for the Fluzone vaccine.
Hope this question makes sense.
All insight appreciated. Thanks.
