Section 388-147-1640 - When must I get an EPSDT exam for a child?

Children who enter out-of-home care must receive an early and periodic screening, diagnosis and treatment (EPSDT) exam within thirty days, unless they have had an EPSDT exam in the previous thirty days. Exception: Children placed by DDA through a voluntary placement agreement (for children placed by DDA, follow the direction of DDA regarding the need for an EPSDT exam after placement). Children also receive subsequent periodic EPSDT exams; information on these required exams may be obtained from the child's DSHS worker.
