Summary
Health Net has issued new guidance for treating patients with Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs) and toxic stress. Providers can bill for ACEs screenings after completing required 2-hour online training and submitting self-attestation to DHCS, with training available for those who missed the July 1, 2020 deadline.
Action Required
Providers who want to bill for ACEs screenings must: 1) Complete the 2-hour online training at training.acesaware.org/, 2) Submit the DHCS Trauma Screening Training Attestation form for self-attestation. Providers who missed the original July 1, 2020 deadline can still complete training and begin billing the month they complete attestation.
