Summary
Nevada Medicaid is reminding providers about medical record documentation requirements that became effective April 26, 2023. All Medicaid-billable services must have complete documentation including recipient name, dates, times, procedure codes, and provider signatures, or services may be denied and payments recouped.
Action Required
Immediately: Billing team and providers must ensure all Medicaid claims include complete documentation with recipient name, date of service, place of service, modality (telehealth/in-person), start/end times, procedure codes, and rendering provider name/credentials/signature. Update EMR templates to include all required fields. For multi-page records, add recipient name, date of service, and page numbers on each page. Failure to comply may result in claim denials and payment recoupment.
