6.13.2025 Direct reference code POS 81 for Adult Immunization Status (AIS-E) POS code 81 is included in the AIS-E measure specification but is not included in the Direct Reference Code tab of the VSD. Should the code be used when reporting Adult Immunization Status for MY 2025?

Yes. As described in Numerator 5—Immunization Status: Hepatitis B, use POS code 81 to exclude laboratory claims when identifying members with a history of hepatitis B illness. POS code 81 was mistakenly omitted from the Direct Reference Code tab of the VSD. Because the information needed for reporting is in the measure specification, NCQA does not intend to reissue the VSD.
