Billing the consult, not just the shot
The counseling before every vaccine is a separate billable encounter. 99401 covers the consult. 90460 covers the administration. Together they pay every single time — and most pharmacies bill neither.
Every vaccine consult you're already doing is a billable encounter. Most pharmacies collect nothing for it. 45 minutes on which codes pay, how to document it, and what you can still collect this season.

Figures reflect what pharmacies capture after putting a vaccine consult billing workflow in place with RxBB.
What's covered
Built around vaccine consult billing. Works the same whether you're in Texas, New York, or anywhere in between.
The counseling before every vaccine is a separate billable encounter. 99401 covers the consult. 90460 covers the administration. Together they pay every single time — and most pharmacies bill neither.
What payers need in the chart note for a vaccine consult — and the denial codes you'll hit when documentation is thin.
Every vaccine consult you documented but never billed — the timely filing window is still open for most of them.
The shift
Same pharmacy. Same patients. Different billing.
The playbook
Six steps. Vaccine season is the best time to start.
Who should come
The shot takes 30 seconds. The consult — the counseling, the recommendation, the documentation — is what pays. You're already doing it.
Thin documentation is the #1 reason. We show you exactly what the chart note needs — and it takes 3 minutes.
If you give 500 vaccines this fall and bill the consult on each one, come see what that number looks like.
See the exact workflow — what to document, when, and how it fits into a busy flu-shot day.
