What’s Newnew_symbol-1

  • Corrected the generation of CPT 90461 for VAXELIS when documented with Counselling Given selected.
  • VAXELIS configured with five components now generates:
    • CPT 90460 – Quantity 1
    • CPT 90461 – Quantity 4
      • Corrected CPT 90461 quantity calculations when multiple multi-component vaccines are documented within the same Provider Note.
      • CPT 90460 continues to generate one unit per vaccine documented with counselling.
      • CPT 90461 now generates one unit for each additional component beyond the first component of each vaccine.
      • When multiple vaccines are documented together, their additional-component quantities are correctly combined on the Superbill.
      • Administration quantities are calculated using the No. of Components value configured in Vaccine Setup.
      • Updating a vaccine’s component count affects subsequently generated Superbills.
      • Existing Superbills can be regenerated to reflect updated component configurations.

How It Works

  • Navigate to Settings > EHR > Vaccine and open the applicable vaccine configuration.
  • Verify that the No. of Components field contains the correct number of vaccine components.
  • Open the patient’s Provider Note.
  • Document the applicable vaccine or vaccines.
  • Select Counselling Given for each vaccine where counselling was provided.
  • Create the Superbill.
  • CureMD automatically calculates CPT 90460 and 90461 quantities using the configured component counts.
  • When multiple vaccines are documented within the same note, the system combines their administration quantities correctly.
