5 Addressing Challenges in Adult Vaccine Financing Angela K. Shen, ScD, MPH CAPT, US Public Health Service Senior Science Policy Advisor US Department of Health and Human Services Objectives I. Provide an overview of vaccine financing in the United States II. Review some challenges facing providers of adult immunization III. Share some efforts to address barriers and available resources 5
6 Public & Private Sector I. OVERVIEW OF VACCINE FINANCING IN THE UNITED STATES Vaccine Financing in the United States Vaccines for Children (VFC, ~45% of children) Entitlement for children up to age 19 served by: Medicaid Without health insurance American Indians and Alaska Natives Underinsured children can receive VFC vaccines in Federally Qualified Health Centers (FQHCs) or Rural Health Clinics (RHCs) 6
7 Vaccine Financing in the United States Federal Government provides the vaccine and providers are paid an administration fee, based on a fee schedule. For children on Medicaid, the State Medicaid program pays the administration fee. The state sets the rate, based on the fee schedule. Section 317 Discretionary funding that has been stagnant Has objective to improve adult IZ Medicare Vaccine Financing in the United States Federal health insurance for those age 65 years and older, disability, permanent kidney failure Coverage under: Part B (named by statute) influenza, pneumococcal, hepatitis B for high risk Part D All other vaccines (e.g., Zoster, Tdap/Td) 7
8 Vaccine Financing in the United States Medicaid (non-vfc) No cost-sharing for adults in expansion population State Medicaid program reimburses providers for both vaccine and administration fee Reimbursement rate for administration fee is set by states (no fee schedule) State receives Federal match for both the vaccine and administration fee at the state s regular match rate (between 50-70% based on state per capita income) Vaccine Financing in the United States Private sector (~50% of children) Price of vaccine negotiated with purchaser (distributor/manufacturers) Payment negotiated with various payors Providers responsible for administering vaccine then seeking payment (compare with pharmaceuticals where patient fills the prescription) 8
9 II. CHALLENGES FACING ADULT PROVIDERS First Dollar Coverage Applies to the patient perspective First Dollar Coverage means: ACIP-recommended vaccines at no costsharing to the patient (no copays, coinsurance, deductibles) What does financing mean for the provider? 9
10 Managing the Business of Vaccination: providers THE NATIONAL VACCINE PROGRAM OFFICE Actually More Complex 10
11 CDC Vaccine Price List National Vaccine Advisory Committee (NVAC) National Adult Immunization Plan (NAIP) National Adult and Influenza Immunization Summit (NAIIS) III. EFFORTS TO ADDRESS CHALLENGES 11
12 Implementing NVAC Recommendations: Building on NVAC Work NVAC Pediatric Financing Working Group (March 2009) Assuring Vaccination of Children and Adolescents Without Financial Barriers NVAC Adult Working Group (February 2012) A Pathway to Leadership for Adult Immunization THE NATIONAL VACCINE PROGRAM OFFICE The Pediatric Experience Payor education: AAP business case Provider education: Coding, reimbursement, strategies lower cost (e.g., VPG), improve practice efficiency THE NATIONAL VACCINE PROGRAM OFFICE 12
13 Focus on Providers Patients: May be unaware of recommended ACIP vaccines (not know they are fully covered under the ACA) Providers: May be learning the business of vaccination (not know coverage for payment and how to code) Payors: Payment for vaccine (product) and administration (services) THE NATIONAL VACCINE PROGRAM OFFICE Questions to NVAC What are the data gaps to understanding financing barriers to providers for providing vaccination services? What are the types of studies needed to better understand vaccine and vaccination costs associated with providing adult vaccines? THE NATIONAL VACCINE PROGRAM OFFICE 13
14 One Answer The total cost of administering vaccines, including administration, storage, purchase, and other incidental costs; reimbursement received for administered vaccines; opportunity costs of purchasing and storing vaccines; and the average net profit and loss associated with vaccine administration among various provider types and provider settings. THE (FIRST EVER) NATIONAL ADULT IMMUNIZATION PLAN 14
15 Four Overarching Goals Strengthen the adult immunization infrastructure Improve access to adult vaccines Increase community demand for adult immunizations Foster innovation in adult vaccine development and vaccination related technologies THE NATIONAL VACCINE PROGRAM OFFICE National Adult and Influenza Immunization Summit (NAIIS) Our charge: Determine what we can do as the NAIIS and as individual organizations to improve adult and influenza vaccination rates: Identifying data gaps and filling them Identifying barriers and addressing them Working Groups Provider and Access Influenza Quality Measures Maternal, Adult composite, ESRD 15
16 Reminder Coverage with no cost-sharing Actual dollar payments often vary by insurer and individual insurance plans Each claim submission requires appropriate Current Procedural Terminology (CPT ) and ICD-10- CM codes even if the insurer considers immunization a routine service Coding and Billing Website 16
17 Manufacturers Provide Hotlines Many manufacturers provide hotlines to assist coders; these may also offer guidance for claims preparation, appeals, and specific payers vaccine coverage and reimbursement policies Contact your vaccine representative to learn more about their reimbursement support services Resources Websites Subscribe to Updates

20 The Process of Office Immunization Step One: order vaccine Step Two: receive and reconcile vaccine quantity against order Step Three: store the vaccine safely and securely Step Four: distribute vaccine to the intermediate user (vaccinator) Step Five: identify and administer vaccine to end user (patient)-pre-visit planning Step Six: document vaccinating event in the medical record and State Registry Step Seven: enter a charge in the practice management system Step Eight: bill for both the administration fee and the vaccine charge Step Nine: generate an insurance claim and collect copayment (Part D only) Step Ten: reconcile all charges with collections Step Eleven: reconcile inventory begin day - vaccine doses given = vaccine doses end of day) Step Twelve: produce cash flow (Income and Expense) statement How You Are Paid 1. Two fees for each shot, one for the vaccine and one for the administration 2. Must code correctly for each in order to be paid for any 20
21 How You Are Paid 1. Once a year, update your vaccine fees 2. Reconcile this against all your insurance fee schedules 3. Document the Vaccine Administration 4. Generate an Insurance Claim (collect a co-pay only for Medicare Part D) 5. Receive payment within three weeks; if no payment, follow-up calls 6. Audit the payment against the cost Vaccine Pneumovax- 23 CPT code $89.95 Prevnar $ Influenza Quadrivalent $19.03 Average Reimbursement Administration Administration 1st dose (Commercial) CPT code Average Reimburse ment $21.86 Influenza High Dose $42.72 Zostavax $ Hepatitis A $63.88 Hepatitis B $61.48 Menactra $ Bexsero $ Gardasil $ Tdap $47.00 Yellow Fever $ Typhim $99.21 Administration 2nd dose (Commercial) $11.29 Flu (Medicare) G0008 $25.72 Pneumococc al (Medicare) Hep B (Medicare) G0009 $25.72 G0010 $

23 How to Find Medicare Payment Information 23
24 Payment for Vaccine Component-Medicare Documenting the Vaccine Administration The Role of Quality Control in Documentation 24
25 PDSA Daily Worksheet for Vaccines Completed PDSA Daily Run Sheet 25
26 Generate an Insurance Claim Form 1500 Box 21. Diagnosis code A. Should reflect the ICD 10 code describing the reason for the office visit. In this case the patient s asthmatic condition Box B. Should reflect the location where the service is provided. In this example 11 indicates the service was provided at an office Box D. Procedures, Services, or Supplies. NCCI edits require a modifier 25 to recognize the office visit as a distinct service from the vaccine administration The SK modifier can be used to indicate that the patient is considered high risk Box F. Charges. Should reflect the HCP s usual and customary charges The reporting of the vaccines National drug code (NDC) may be required by some payers including Medicaid and TriCARE. 26
27 Filling Out The Form Generate Reports Why generate reports? What reports to generate? How often to generate these reports? 27
28 Using Daily Run Sheet for Reporting 1) Formalizes pre-visit immunization planning 2) Documents the ask rate at 100% 3) Documents the Refusal Rate easily 4) Can augment this with a signature required refusal form 5) Filled out contemporaneously by the nurse will double check documentation 6) Can be used to verify that the dose was given and check at end of day against vaccines documented as administered and charged in the Electronic Record 7) Keeping it allows for running count of progress (% of patients vaccinated) PDSA Daily Worksheet for Vaccines 28
