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.

The Texas Health Steps Quick Reference Guide will be updated and available on February 1, 2023. Pneumococcal vaccine procedure code 90671 under the Immunizations Administered column will be updated to indicate that the vaccine is available through the Texas Vaccines for Children Program (TVFC).
