NC Integrated Care for Kids Closeout and Related Billing Code Changes
NC Medicaid is closing the NC Integrated Care for Kids (InCK) pilot program effective December 2026. Two food/housing screening G codes (G9919, G9920) will be rejected after December 31, 2026, while the Kindergarten Readiness Promotion Bundle code (CPT 1003F with modifiers SE, TS) will continue indefinitely for well-child visits in children ages birth to 6. Billing teams must stop using the discontinued G codes and ensure proper use of CPT 1003F with appropriate modifiers to document bundle completion.
