65ED correction (HP249)

Overview/Purpose

65ED (Seasonal influenza vaccination) was the code used for a number of years to document vaccinations done in Practice. This has been superseded but some users still select it if they are not using an up-to-date template or protocol. The code should not be used if Practices want to be paid for all activity. The protocol only works on patients who have not already got a valid flu vaccination code on their record this season (from 1st September until 31st March).

Product

This protocol is part of the PCIT toolset product.

What does it do?

This protocol will automatically flag if the incorrect flu code is added to the patient's record. It will then inform the user and add the correct code.

Why is it important?

This saves admin time within general practice, ensures accuracy of coding and prevents missed payments.

What does it look like?

HP249 will automatically add the most common correct code (Administration of first inactivated seasonal influenza vaccination), irrespective of age so children given Fluenz will still have this code added.
The protocol has been enhanced for 2024/25 by alerting the user to their mistake, instead of running quietly in the background and allowing the user to continue making the same mistake.
