Reimbursement Rate Updates for Some Drug Procedure Codes Effective January 1, 2021

Last updated on

Note: Texas Medicaid managed care organizations (MCOs) must provide all medically necessary, Medicaid-covered services to eligible clients. Administrative procedures such as prior authorization, pre-certification, referrals, and claims/encounter data filing may differ from traditional Medicaid (fee-for-service) and from MCO to MCO. Providers should contact the client's specific MCO for details.

Effective February 2, 2021, for dates of service on or after January 1, 2021, the reimbursement rates for some drug procedure codes have been updated.

Affected claims with dates of service from January 1, 2021, through February 2, 2021, if any are identified, will be reprocessed. Providers are not required to appeal the claims unless they are denied for additional reasons after the claims reprocessing is completed.
