FQHC and RHC Reimbursement for CoCM Services

Last updated on

During the 2026 annual Healthcare Common Procedure Coding System (HCPCS) update, the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) discontinued the procedure code that was used by federally qualified health center (FQHC) and rural health clinic (RHC) providers for the Collaborative Care Model (CoCM) (procedure code G0512), effective January 1, 2026. 

On June 1, 2026, effective for dates of service on or after January 1, 2026, Texas Medicaid will add the FQHC and RHC provider types to CoCM services procedure codes 99492, 99493, 99494, and G2214 for claims processing and reimbursement.

Texas Medicaid may reimburse claims for procedure codes 99492, 99493, 99494, and G2214 in addition to the FQHC or RHC encounter rate.

The Texas Medicaid & Healthcare Partnership (TMHP) will identify and reprocess any claims submitted by FQHC and RHC providers before June 1, 2026, that are affected by the change in procedure codes. If there are any adjustments to claim reimbursement amounts, they will appear on future Remittance and Status (R&S) Reports.

For more information, call the TMHP Contact Center at 800-925-9126.

Note: Texas Medicaid managed care organizations (MCOs) must provide all medically necessary, Medicaid-covered services to Medicaid members who are enrolled in their MCO. Administrative procedures, such as prior authorization, precertification, referrals, claims and encounter data filing, may differ from traditional Medicaid (fee-for-service) and from MCO to MCO. Providers should contact the member’s specific MCO for details.
