SCOPE

DESCRIPTION
The flu is a contagious respiratory illness caused by influenza viruses that infect the nose, throat, and lungs. It can
cause mild to severe illness, and at times can lead to death. Vaccination to prevent influenza is particularly
important for persons who are at increased risk for severe illness and complications from influenza and for
influenza-related outpatient, emergency department, or hospital visits. The best way to prevent the flu is by getting
a flu vaccine each year. Pneumonia vaccine is an infection of the lung, and can be caused by nearly any class of
organism known to cause human infections, bacteria, viruses, fungi and parasites.

Vaccines prevent disease in the people who receive them and protect those who are exposed to unvaccinated
individuals. Immunization, also known as vaccination, is a means of triggering acquired immunity against certain
infectious diseases. This is a specialized form of immunity that provides long-lasting protection against specific
antigens, such as certain diseases. Small doses of an antigen (such as dead or weakened live viruses) are given to
activate the body’s immune system. Persons who receive the vaccine will be immune only to those strains of the
virus from which the vaccine was prepared.

Vaccinations/immunizations are covered when recommended by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention
(CDC) and the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) and when US Food and Drug Administration (FDA)
guidelines are met.

The Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP) of the Centers of Disease Control and Prevention
(CDC) web site contains the most current information regarding the use of vaccines and immunizations in the
United States, including both recommendations/schedules and precautions. ACIP Recommendations:

Routine immunizations with a U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) licensed vaccine are covered as medically
necessary when used in accordance with a recommendation by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s
(CDC) Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP).

Coverage criteria are adjusted when national guidelines are revised to address new vaccines or changes in

  PG0196 – 10/01/2021
vaccine indications, or when the CDC makes recommendations for changes in administration schedules related to
national vaccine shortages.

Influenza and Pneumonia Immunizations are a covered preventive benefit, both for adults and for children

      90662, high dose flu vaccine (Fluzone) is covered for members 65 and over only.

Pneumococcal Vaccination
Pneumococcal vaccines are considered medically necessary according to the recommendations of the Centers for
Disease Control and Prevention’s (CDC) Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP).
    13-valent pneumococcal conjugate vaccine (PCV13, Prevnar13®)
    23-valent pneumococcal polysaccharide vaccine (PPSV23, Pneumovax®23)

13-valent pneumococcal polysaccharide-protein conjugate vaccine (PCV13) or 23-valent pneumococcal
polysaccharide vaccine (PPSV23) is considered medically necessary and, therefore, covered for the following
individuals:

Children
     Routine childhood PCV13 vaccination at ages 2 months, 4 months, 6 months, and 12 months through 15
       months. The first dose of PCV13 is covered as early as 6 weeks of age.
     Catch-up PCV13 vaccination for under-vaccinated healthy children up to 5 years of age at subsequent
       visits.
Adults

  PG0196 – 10/01/2021
   Standard 23-valent pneumococcal polysaccharide vaccine (PPV23, e.g., Pneumovax, Pnu-immune) is
       considered medically necessary for all individuals aged 65 years or older.

Vaccination considered covered for members with high-risk conditions with PCV13 and PPSV23:
    Children
           o For children 2 years through 18 years of age with any of the following conditions: chronic heart
              disease (particularly cyanotic congenital heart disease and cardiac failure); chronic lung disease

              asplenia; HIV infection; chronic renal failure; nephrotic syndrome; diseases associated with
              immunosuppressive drugs or radiation therapy, including malignant neoplasms, leukemias,
              lymphomas, and Hodgkin disease; solid organ transplantation; acquired or congenital
              immunodeficiency; multiple myeloma.
           o For children aged 6 through 18 years with alcoholism or chronic liver disease.
    Adults
           o Adults aged 19 or older with immunocompromising conditions, (e.g., congenital or acquired
              immunodeficiency disorders [including B- and T-lymphocyte deficiency, complement deficiencies,
              phagocytic disorders], HIV infection, anatomical or functional asplenia [including sickle cell disease
              and other hemoglobinopathies], chronic renal failure, leukemia, lymphoma, Hodgkin disease,
              generalized malignancy, iatrogenic immunosuppression [e.g. drug or radiation therapy], solid organ
              transplant, multiple myeloma, and nephrotic syndrome), cerebrospinal fluid leak, or cochlear implant.
           o Adults aged 19 years through 64 years with chronic medical conditions (e.g. chronic heart disease
              (excluding hypertension), chronic lung disease, chronic liver disease, diabetes mellitus), alcoholism,
              or who smokes cigarettes.

      PCV13 and PPSV23, when indicated, will be covered for members whose pneumococcal vaccination
       history is incomplete or unknown.

      Adults 65 years or older who have not previously received the PCV13 vaccine when indicated by shared
       clinical decision-making.

      If PPSV23 was administered prior to age 65 years, adults 65 years or older for a routine dose of PPSV23 at
       least 5 years after the previous PPSV23 dose.

      After heptavalent pneumococcal conjugate vaccine (PCV7) in Alaska Native or American Indian children
       aged 24 through 59 months who are living in areas where the risk of invasive pneumococcal disease is
       increased.

      Alaska Native and American Indian persons aged 50 to 64 years who are living in areas where the risk of
       invasive pneumococcal disease is increased, when recommended by public health authorities

Routine re-vaccination is not recommended by the CDC for pneumococcal vaccines.

In accordance with the CDC’s recommendations, re-vaccination is considered medically necessary only for the
following groups:
      Persons aged 65 years or older if they received vaccine 5 or more years previously and was less than 65
        years of age at the time of vaccination;
      Persons aged 2 to 64 years with the following conditions in which the second dose of PPSV23 is given at
        least 5 years after the first dose of PPSV23:
            o Anatomic or functional asplenia;
            o Chronic renal failure or nephrotic syndrome;
            o Congenital or acquired immunodeficiency (including HIV infection);
            o Generalized and metastatic malignancies;
            o Hodgkin disease;
            o Iatrogenic immunosuppression, including radiation therapy;

  PG0196 – 10/01/2021
o   Leukemia or lymphoma;
           o   Multiple myeloma;
           o   Sickle cell disease or other hemoglobinopathies;
           o   Solid organ transplant;
           o   Sickle cell disease or other hemoglobinopathies.

In addition, re-vaccination with the 23-valent pneumococcal polysaccharide vaccine is considered medically
necessary for high-risk individuals who received the 14-valent polysaccharide vaccine, which was in use prior to
1983.

Pneumococcal 13-valent Conjugate Vaccine (PCV13, Prevnar 13)
    Note: In 2010, heptavalent pneumococcal conjugate vaccine (PCV7, e.g., Prevnar, Prevenar) was replaced
     by PCV13 (e.g., Prevnar 13).

      The use of 13-valent pneumococcal conjugate vaccine (PCV 13; Prevnar 13 is considered in series with
       PPSV23 (e.g. Pneumovax) medically necessary for adults aged 19 years or older (including those aged 65
       years and older) with immunocompromising conditions, CSF leaks, or cochlear implants.

      The use of a dose of PCV13 (e.g., Prevnar 13) is considered followed by a dose of PPSV23 (e.g.,
       Pneumovax) medically necessary for adults aged 65 years and older who want to receive PCV13 and do
       not have an immunocompromising condition, cerebrospinal fluid leak, or cochlear implant and have not
       previously received PCV13.

      Note: if member already received PPSV23, a dose of PCV13 may be given at least one year after they
       received the most recent dose.

      Pneumococcal 13-valent conjugate vaccine (PCV13) is considered experimental and investigational for
       other groups because its effectiveness for groups other than the ones listed above has not been
       established.

CDC recommends some adults receive up to 3 doses of PPSV23 in a lifetime. Adults who have functional or
anatomic asplenia or immunocompromising conditions should receive two doses of PPSV23, given 5 years apart,
before age 65 years. Those adults should then receive a third dose of PPSV23 at or after 65 years, as long as it
has been at least 5 years since the most recent dose.

CDC recommends all adults receive 1 dose of PCV13, if indicated and if they have not received PCV13 previously
(including childhood series). For most people, this will be as part of the routine recommendation to administer
PCV13 to all adults 65 years of age or older. However, if an adult received a dose of PCV13 prior to turning 65
years of age (due to a medical indication), they do not also need to receive a dose of PCV13 when they turn 65.

Note
      Codes may not be all inclusive as the American Medical Association (AMA) and Centers for Medicare and
       Medicaid Services (CMS) code updates and FDA approvals may occur more frequently than policy updates.

      Vaccines and immunizations for the sole purpose of travel outside of the continental United States are not
       covered.

      Paramount does not reimburse for vaccines that are available free from the state.

      Paramount does not reimburse for vaccines that are not FDA-approved

Definitions
    Immunity – is protection from an infectious disease
    Immunization – is an inoculation against a vaccine preventable disease
    Vaccination – the act of introducing a vaccine into the body to produce immunity to a specific disease

  PG0196 – 10/01/2021
   Vaccine – a preparation of a weakened or dead pathogen that stimulates a person’s immune system to
       produce immunity to a specific disease, protecting the person from that disease. Vaccines are usually
       administered through needle injections, but can also be administered by mouth or sprayed into the nose
