Nevada Medicaid and Nevada Check Up are covering the administration of the H1N1 vaccine. Providers are to bill the administration rate by utilizing procedure code G9141. The vaccine is not reimbursed by Medicaid since the federal government is providing it free of charge to healthcare providers. There are no prior authorization requirements for this procedure. The vaccine is to be administered according to Centers for Disease Control (CDC) Guidelines. http://www.cdc.gov/h1n1flu/general_info.htm
