Instructions for Completion of the EPSDT Claim Form ? DMS-694

EDS offers providers several options for electronic billing. Therefore, claims submitted on paper are paid once a month. The only claims exempt from this process are those which require attachments or manual pricing.

To bill for a Child Health Services (EPSDT) screening service, use the claim form DMS-694. The numbered items correspond to numbered fields on the claim form. The DMS-694 is used as a combined referral, screening results document and a billing form. Each screening should be billed separately, providing the appropriate information for each of the screening components. The following numbered items correspond to numbered fields on the claim form.

Medical services such as immunizations and laboratory procedures may also be billed on the DMS-694 when provided in conjunction with a Child Health Services (EPSDT) screening, as well as other treatment services provided.

The following instructions must be read and carefully adhered to, so that EDS can efficiently process claims. Accuracy, completeness and clarity are important. Claims cannot be processed if applicable information is not supplied or is illegible. Claims should be typed whenever possible.

Completed claim forms should be forwarded to the EDS Claims Department. View or print the EDS Claims Department contact information.
