Medicare and TDap Hi Neecole, I work in a Family Practice office and I see denials all the time regarding Medicare and TDap. No, Medicare doesn't cover the TDap in an office setting. It might be covered under the patient's Part D benefits. Medicare Part B only covers Influenza, Pneumococcal and Hepatitis B.
Pt is over 18 years old came for TDAP vaccine, whats the correct cpt codes to use?? is it 90471 and 90715.. or 90715, 90471, 90472 X2 since DTAP has 3 components.
