CMS Pub. 100-04, ch. 18, § 10.1.3
Hepatitis B Vaccine
Effective for services furnished on or after September 1, 1984, the hepatitis B vaccine and
its administration is covered if it is ordered by a doctor of medicine or osteopathy and is
available to Medicare beneficiaries who are at high or intermediate risk of contracting
hepatitis B, e.g., exposed to hepatitis B. Effective January 1, 2025, a doctor’s order will no
longer be necessary for the administration of a hepatitis B vaccine under Part B. Therefore,
mass immunizers can use the roster billing process to submit Medicare Part B claims for
hepatitis B vaccines and their administration.

Unofficial copy of government-published law, reproduced from official sources with full provenance. Not an official publication; verify against official sources before relying on it in a filing. Records in the 'guidance' corpus, and only that corpus, are sub-regulatory (interpretive guidelines, survey procedures) and are not binding law. Validity bounds follow each jurisdiction's declared temporalBasis.
