We are working with and learning the new GE HTML immunizations form. We are looking for a way to charge a CPT code (place an order) for both the immunization and the administration of the immunization when we use the form. Is any one else doing this or is there a different method or workflow or config. We expect to see this workflow reflected in the chart note under orders.
We want to charge a code for the immunization and a 90471 or similar for the administration.
We asked the same question when we began using the form and were told there's not a way to link both the admin and the vaccine charge.
You can probably build a trigger, won't build but it is possible, but it's something custom.
That is an interesting question. The Immunization table does not stored CPT code - only CVX. You can get conversion from CDC at: http://www2a.cdc.gov/vaccines/iis/iisstandards/vaccines.asp?rpt=cpt. But it has to be something that you can use. For example you can create a Web Service (on IIS for example) that send you corresponded CPT code for your CVX request. You can store it with document by adding some custom code to document text portion or may be create a flag for the value.
Just a thought.
Let me know if this is still a problem. I did a test this morning and the form added both the medication order as well as the admin order. I am on version 12.0.9.

The form does push both codes. We also had issues with it, after a call with GE we were told that you need to use the GE Immunizations list in orders when setting them up. We were trying to use our own list from the old form. When you use their list, it will push charges for both the vaccine and the administration. I would recommend watching the CBT on Immunizations. It did help a little bit. If I can help, let me know.
We are getting different admin fee codes when ordering the same vaccine on different patients. Where can we change/update the admin fee codes? Not sure how and where it is mapped. Please let me know. Thanks. sramos@kphc.org
I am not sure where the Admin orders are. I do know that it will add Medicare codes for Medicare patients and non Medicare codes for the others and their maybe some age criteria in some others. Also a know bug is that the form adds the Flu Medicare Code for all vaccinations given to Medicare patients.
Over all the form works very well for us. My users like it as well. That is rare...
Just to add on the previous comment.

This maybe where the admin orders come from, you will see them listed. Be sure to make a copy of the original before you make any changes.
