Summary
Nevada Medicaid has launched a Justice Involved Reentry Initiative effective January 1, 2025, providing expanded services for eligible juveniles 30 days before and after release from institutional settings. Eligible providers can now bill for physical assessments, EPSDT services, and targeted case management during this transition period.
Action Required
Immediately: Nevada Medicaid providers (PT 14, 20, 22, 24, 26, 54, 77, 82) should review the new Justice Involved Reentry Initiative billing guide available on Nevada Medicaid's Billing Information page. Billing teams must update workflows to accommodate pre- and post-release services for eligible juveniles and ensure EPSDT screening services follow provider license scope and Medicaid Services Manual guidelines.
