      In recording information about vaccinations, patient data should either contain a CVX code consistent with the expected vaccination, or a code for the appropriate vaccination procedure (or both). Value sets containing CVX codes may change over time to add newly crafted concepts as necessary, but timing for this is currently controlled by the MU annual update process. The annual update review will include a review of the suggestions offered below.

      The following are the allowed CVX codes for Influenza immunizations but there are two new vaccines with codes 149 and 150. Since Value sets are determined far ahead of reporting periods and ideally the vaccines administered should only need to be coded once for the patient and coded correctly, I would suggest that coding only that an immunization was administered be sufficient.

      Code System Description
      111 CVX influenza virus vaccine, live, attenuated, for intranasal use
      135 CVX influenza, high dose seasonal, preservative-free
      140 CVX Influenza, seasonal, injectable, preservative free
      141 CVX Influenza, seasonal, injectable
      144 CVX seasonal influenza, intradermal, preservative free
