Reimbursement Rate Updates for COVID-19 Related Procedure Code C9507 Effective December 28, 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, precertification, 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.

Starting March 31, 2022, for dates of service on or after December 28, 2021, reimbursement rates for COVID-19 related procedure code C9507 will be implemented for Texas Medicaid and the Children with Special Health Care Needs (CSHCN) Services Program.
