What Is Rabies Vaccine and How Does It Work? Rabies vaccine is an immunization used to prevent rabies in people who have been bitten by an animal or otherwise exposed to the rabies virus. Rabies vaccine is available under the following different brand names: HDCV, Imovax, and rabies vaccine human diploid cell culture.
Code 90471 is used when the drug is administrated by a medical assistant or nurse and the patient does not see the physician at all. This code would also be used for any patient 19 years of age or older regardless if physician is present and does face-to-face counseling.
o Rabies vaccine ▪ 90675 – Rabies vaccine, for intramuscular use; or ▪ 90676 – Rabies vaccine, for intradermal use • Appropriate ICD-10 diagnosis code(s) for the exposure.Apr 27, 2017
If the immunization is related to exposure (eg, the administration of a Tdap vaccine as a part of wound care), the ICD-10 code describing the exposure should be used as the primary diagnosis code for the vaccine, and Z23 should be used as the secondary code.
The Z23 code includes the following note: “Code first any routine childhood examination.” Therefore, when you provide immunizations in conjunction with a well-child visit, a code for routine child health examination should be reported first, followed by Z23 for any immunizations.
Code Z23 is used to indicate any encounter for a vaccination. The procedure codes are used to identify the type of the immunization given and how it was administered.Nov 24, 2020
