The American Medical Association (AMA) issued new Current Procedural Terminology (CPT) vaccine and administration codes for pediatric doses of the COVID-19 vaccine developed by Pfizer. The provisional codes will be effective for use if Pfizer’s two-dose COVID-19 vaccine for children ages 5 to 11 receives U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approval or emergency use authorization.
The CPT codes for the pediatric Pfizer COVID-19 vaccine are as follows:
