      The measure requires change to the value set.

      We will make the following changes to the value set: Add CPT 90687 to the influenza vaccine value set (this vaccine was recently approved by the FDA). If there are any additional edits to the HEDIS value set, those codes will will be included as well.

      QUESTION: see ATTACHED

      CPT 90687 is not included in either the 2016 or the 2017 CMS117 value set, however, 90687 is in use as a valid code representing a CDC-approved vaccine. Is there a reason why this code is not included in CMS117 value set? Is there a plan to update the value set to include 90687, if so, could you please let us know when? We wanted to bring this to your and the measure steward's attention as clients using our product are requesting this code be included.

      Thank you,
      Elissa
