2004 ICD-9-CM Implementation Postponed
Implementation of the annual 2004 International Classification of Diseases 9th Revision Clinical Modification (ICD-9-CM)
diagnoses, procedures and diagnosis-related groups (DRGs) has been postponed until 2004. As a result, the implementation of Grouper 21 has also been postponed. Providers will be notified of the actual effective date and affected policies
at a future date. Continue to use 2003 ICD-9-CM and Grouper 20 information for claims and authorizations until further
notice. ■
Influenza Coding Changes
There is a change in coding related to the influenza vaccine and its administration. See the table below for appropriate
codes for claims submission for this vaccine and its administration. To determine the appropriate code(s) for submission,
the provider determines the type of service, age of the client receiving the vaccine, and whether or not the influenza vaccine
is provided by the Texas Vaccines for Children (TVFC) program. If a claim related to the influenza vaccine or its administration has been denied since September 1, 2003, submit an appeal of the claim using the appropriate codes:
THSteps
(During a THSteps medical
check-up)
Acute Care/Medical
(Outside of THSteps medical
check-up)
Client age and
vaccine source
Less than 19 years
and

Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW)
The Texas Medicaid Program has been informed of a recent change of licensure designation for licensed master social
worker-advanced clinical practitioner (LMSW-ACP). The Texas State Board of Social Worker Examiners announced that
effective September 1, 2003, LMSW-ACPs are now designated as licensed clinical social workers (LCSW).
The Social Work Licensing Board indicates that they understand that there will be a transition period for all licensees.
Reportedly, many licensees have stated that, in order to avoid confusion, they will not begin using the new credentials until
they are in receipt of the new license. All licensees must begin using the new titles by September 1, 2004.
At the direction of HHSC, the LMSW-ACP designation will not change until the 2005 manual revision cycle. ■
Medically Needy Spend Down Program Available to Adult Pregnant Women
The Medically Needy Spend Program is again available to adult pregnant women who are not otherwise eligible for Medicaid
because of income. The effective date of the restoration is retroactive to September 1, 2003, when the program was
discontinued for all adults. Only pregnant women are now allowed this coverage, no other adult applicants. Resume
referring pregnant women to this program. ■
Preferred Drug List (PDL)
Early next year, the Texas Health and Human Services Commission (HHSC) will begin implementing the Preferred Drug List
(PDL) for the Medicaid and Children's Health Insurance Program (CHIP) programs. In February 2004, HHSC will establish
the PDL for the 15 drug classes reviewed by the Pharmaceutical and Therapeutics (P&T) Committee at its December
meeting. HHSC will later expand the list to include additional drug classes.
With the implementation of the PDL, HHSC will establish a prior authorization function that will allow prescribers to obtain
prior authorization for nonpreferred drugs. Nonpreferred drugs are drugs that have been reviewed by the P&T Committee,
but that were not selected by HHSC to be on the PDL. Prior authorization will not be required for drugs and drug classes

that have not been reviewed by the P&T Committee. Policies and procedures for requesting prior authorizations will be
posted on the Vendor Drug Program @eb site (www.hhsc.state.tx.us/HCF/vdp/vdpstart.html) 30 days before program
implementation. ■

Texas Medicaid Bulletin, No. 177
Revised Influenza Vaccine Recommendations
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has announced an expansion of the routine recommendations for
influenza vaccine during the 2003-2004 influenza season. All children eligible for the TVFC should be vaccinated in accordance with the revised Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP) and the Federal Vaccines for Children (VFC)
Program resolution. (A copy of the resolution can be downloaded from www.cdc.gov/mmwr/PDF/rr/rr5208.pdf.) Eligible
groups are identified as:
•
•
Children age 6 months through 23 months
•
Children and adolescents age 6 months through 18 years who have required regular medical follow-up or hospitalization during the preceding year because of chronic metabolic diseases (including diabetes mellitus), renal
dysfunction, hemoglolbinopathies, or immunosuppression (including immunosuppression caused by medications)
•
Children and adolescents age 6 months through 18 years who are receiving long-term aspirin therapy and may
therefore be at risk for developing Reye syndrome after influenza
•
Children and adolescents age 2 years through 18 years who are household contacts of people in high-risk groups (e.g.,
people age 65 years or older, transplant recipients, people with AIDS, and children younger than age 2 years)
•
Children and adolescents age 6 months through 18 years who are residents of nursing facilities and other chronic-care
facilities that house people at any age who have chronic medical conditions
Children and adolescents age 6 months through 18 years with chronic disorders of the pulmonary or cardiovascular
systems, including asthma
•
Adolescent females less than age 19 years who will be in the second or third trimester of pregnancy during influenza
season
Influenza vaccine orders for Medicaid children and all TVFC-eligible children should be placed following the TVFC vaccine
ordering procedures currently in place for routine childhood vaccines.
Contact the nearest Public Health region (PHR) Immunization Program Manager with questions regarding influenza vaccine
recommendations. For influenza vaccine ordering information, contact Lisa Davis at 800-252-9152 or 512-458-7284. ■
TMHP Electronic Funds Transfer (EFT) Information
Providers currently participating in electronic funds transfer (EFT) with NHIC are not required to resubmit or change their
current EFT agreements. All current agreements will transfer to TMHP. Only providers who do not currently have an existing
agreement or newly enrolled providers will need to complete the revised EFT application.
Refer to:
TMHP Electronic Funds Transfer (EFT) Information on page 11. ■
DME Providers
Hydrophilic Intermittent Urinary Catheters
Effective for dates of service on or after October 16, 2003, all hydrophilic intermittent urinary catheters (such as, SpeediCath, Bard Interglide, and LoFric) may be considered for prior authorization and reimbursement using procedure code
A9900, Miscellaneous DME supply, accessory, and/or service component of another HCPCS code, manually priced at
manufacturer’s suggested retail price (MSRP) less 18 percent, with a maximum fee of $3.53. ■
THSteps Medical Providers
TDH Laboratory Billing of THSteps Medical Providers
All laboratory specimens, obtained as part of a THSteps medical checkup, must be submitted to the TDH Bureau of Laboratories. There is no cost to the THSteps medical provider for laboratory supplies and services that are part of a THSteps
medical checkup for THSteps-eligible clients. However, THSteps does reimburse the TDH Laboratory for the cost of these
supplies and services.
THSteps must have information sufficient to verify that the client is Medicaid-eligible on the date of the medical checkup
to reimburse the TDH Laboratory for the cost of these services. Without sufficient client information for a Medicaid eligibility
verification, THSteps cannot reimburse the laboratory. Therefore, THSteps supports the TDH Laboratory billing to any
Texas Medicaid Bulletin, No. 177

January/February 2004
THSteps provider for any laboratory test conducted on a specimen that is not accompanied with client information sufficient
to verify Medicaid eligibility. Sources: 2003 TMPPM-Texas Health Steps, page 22; 2004 TMPPM-Texas Health Steps,
page 23.
THSteps laboratory specimens submitted to TDH must include the client’s name and Medicaid number as they appear on
the Form 3087 on a THSteps Laboratory Request (Form NBS-3, G--1A, G-1B). Write PENDING in the Medicaid number space
if a number is not currently available but is pending (such as, a newborn or a newly certified client patient verified by a Form
1027 as eligible for Medicaid).
Important: These services and supplies are limited to THSteps medical checkup and laboratory services provided in the
course of a medical checkup to THSteps clients. Unauthorized use of services and supplies is in violation of
federal regulations. The $70 reimbursement for the complete medical checkup includes specimen collection,
shipping, and receiving test results from the TDH laboratory. Claims for tests listed in the following table
submitted by a provider or an outside laboratory for the same date of service as a THSteps medical checkup
are denied and subject to retrospective review:

Excluded Providers
In compliance with the Medicare and Medicaid Patient Protection Act of 1987, HHSC identifies providers or employees of
providers who have been excluded from state and federal health care programs.
Providers excluded from the Medicaid and Title XX programs must not order or prescribe services to clients after the
exclusion date. Services rendered under the medical direction or under the prescribing orders of an excluded provider also
will be denied. Providers who submit cost reports cannot include the salaries/wages/benefits of employees who have been
excluded from Medicaid. Also, excluded employees are not permitted to provide Medicaid services to any patient/client.
Review the entire Exclusion List for Texas Medicaid at www.hhsc.state.tx.us/OIE/exclusionlist/exclusion.asp. Report
Medicaid providers who engage in fraud/abuse by calling 512-424-6519 or 888-752-4888, or by writing to the following
