Influenza cvx code 171

    • Type: EC eCQMs - Eligible Clinicians

    • Priority: Moderate
    • Component/s: ValueSet

      We recognize that CVX code 171 is not in the ‘Influenza Vaccine’ value set for 2017 reporting. In the meantime, we suggest that a generic code (i.e., CVX code 88) be reported in lieu of CVX code 171. CVX 88, ‘Influenza vaccine, unspecified formulation’, is a generic concept that does not specify the type of influenza vaccine, but captures that the influenza vaccine was administered. We will be working through the annual updates for this measure and make updates to the value sets as we are able.

      cvx code 171 for influenza is valid per CDC but it is not in the updated value sets for 2017 reporting period. Is there a timeline for when this will be added? Can providers get credit for it in eCQMs and PQRS when used for Influenza Immunization measures?
