242.150 Nutritional Formulae for Child Health Services (EPSDT) Beneficiaries Under 21 Years of Age

The following list provides the enteral formula HCPCS procedure codes, any associated modifiers, code descriptions and the formula covered for each HCPCS code. The code description lists the formula included in the category of nutrients.

The coverage listed is payable only if the service is prescribed as a result of a Child Health Services (EPSDT) screening/referral.

There is no prior authorization required for nutritional formulas for EPSDT beneficiaries from age five years through twenty years.

Prior authorization is required for beneficiaries from birth through four years. Use of modifier U7 in the following list will be necessary, as indicated.

To request prior authorization, providers should complete the Arkansas Foundation for Medical Care, Inc. Prescription & Prior Authorization Request for Medical Equipment Excluding Wheelchairs & Wheelchair Components (DMS-679A), attaching a copy of the EPSDT screening/referral as well as a prescription signed by the beneficiary's PCP. View or print form DMS-679A.

NOTE: The Women, Infant and Children program (WIC) must be accessed first for children from birth to their fifth birthday.

The Arkansas Medicaid program mirrors coverage of approved WIC nutritional formulas. As stated in current policy, the WIC Program must be accessed first for Arkansas Medicaid beneficiaries aged 0 to five (5) years, prior to requesting supplemental amounts of WIC approved nutritional formula. The Medicaid nutritional formula list will be updated accordingly to continue compliance with the WIC Program in Arkansas. Changes will be reflected in the appropriate Medicaid provider manual.

For beneficiaries from birth through four years of age, the use of modifier U8,as well as additional documentation will be required when a non-WIC formula is prescribed or WIC guidelines are not followed when prescribing special formula.

An EPSDT screening, which documents the PCP's medical rationale for prescribing a formula, as well as medical records documenting the beneficiary's failed trials of WIC formula, must be submitted for review. Flavor preferences for formulas will not be considered for medical necessity.

One unit of service equals 100 calories with a reimbursable maximum of 30 units per day. Supplies furnished by prosthetics providers in conjunction with the nutritional formula must be billed to Medicaid with the prosthetics medical supply codes. These formulae are covered as nutritional supplements rather than as the sole source of nutrition.

NOTE: Beneficiaries who require enteral nutrition as the sole source of nutrition with the formulae being administered through a nasogastric, jejunostomy or gastrostomy tube should be referred to a hyperalimentation provider enrolled in the Medicaid Program.

Each claim should reflect a "from" and "through" date of service. The claims must not be filed until after the "through" date has elapsed. Claims may be submitted on either a weekly or a monthly basis.

NOTE: If a specific formula is not listed but is prescribed as the result of the EPSDT

screening of an Arkansas Medicaid beneficiary, the provider may forward a copy of the screening and prescription, along with product information, to Utilization Review for consideration.

242.120 Enteral (Sole Source) Formulas

The following pages provide the enteral formula HCPCS procedure codes, any associated modifiers, code descriptions and the formula covered for each HCPCS code. The code description lists the formula included in the category of nutrients.

Modifiers in this section are indicated by the headings M1, M2 and M3.

Enteral formulas are divided into several categories. Each unit of service equals 100 calories of formula. All supplies and equipment necessary to administer the nutrients in the beneficiary's place of residence, except the infusion pump and pump supply kit are included in the unit description.

For a non-covered prescribed formula, a review for medical necessity will be performed upon request. The product information, with assigned HCPCS code and physician documentation of the medical necessity of the formula for a specific beneficiary, must be submitted to Utilization Review. View or print the Utilization Review Section contact information. If approved, the formula will be added to the list of covered formulae and the provider will be notified. If denied, the provider and beneficiary will be notified.

For beneficiaries ages birth through four years of age, the use of modifier U8, as well as additional documentation will be required when a non-WIC formula is prescribed or WIC guidelines are not followed when prescribing special formula.

An EPSDT screening, which documents the PCP's medical rationale for prescribing a formula, as well as medical records documenting the beneficiary's failed trials of WIC formula, must be submitted for review. Flavor preference will not be considered for medical necessity.

A separate prior authorization must be obtained for the enteral infusion pump and the pump supply kit. The enteral infusion pump and the pump supply kit may be billed separately.

Exceptions to Use of Formula

The following exceptions must be followed in order to use formulas listed in this section.

A. Nutramigen Lipil - sensitivity or allergy to milk and/or soy protein - chronic diarrhea, food allergies, GI bleeds - Enfamil Gentlease Lipil must first have been tried.
