Need a fix for the missing CVX code

At risk for losing credit for IPV portion of the DTap-HiB-IPV immunization for the CMS 117 Childhood Immunization Status measure.
CMS 117-Childhood Immunization Status, the measure logic evaluates whether an immunization has been administered based on CVX codes linked to the immunization.
Pentacel is a combination DTaP-HiB-IPV with CVX code 120. In the NLM value set for Inactivated Polio Vaccine (IPV) evaluation, CVX 120 is missing. That CVX code is included in the value sets for DTaP and HiB.
If we’re administering Pentacel, we’re at risk for losing credit towards the IPV portion due to the omission of CVX 120 code in the NLM value set.
