immunizations
There are two codes to bill for immunizations/vaccines:
the administration (for IM 90471 is the first, but there are a series of these codes)
and for the vaccine if you bought the vaccine. If you got it for free, you don't bill that. There is a brief article in the data base called, "immunization administration"
