Flu Vaccine Amounts have been published for 2021-2022 Season

For SNF’s, Medicare B pays for patients that receive the influenza, pneumococcal and Hepatitis B vaccines. As a reminder, the vaccines are a separate Part B inpatient benefit when rendered to beneficiaries in a covered Part A stay. Therefore, the SNF can be reimbursed for the vaccines given to all patients that have Medicare B, regardless if the patient is using Medicare A benefits or not. Reference the Medicare Claims Processing Manual, Chapter 6, Section 20.4 for details.
