    Any kid that we have that is in foster care, is on straight medicaid. We have them come in for shots and I can’t get medicaid to pay them. I don’t have any issues with the Managed Care Plans but billing throught emomed, I get nothing. And of course, I have no idea what their codes mean for denial because I can’t seem to find them.

    You can send emomed an email to ask why they are denying it. Are you using diagnostic code Z23? We get $8.07 per procedure code for individual vaccines, Example Hep A 90633 with modifier SL. Feel free to call me at the Lawrence county health department with questions. 417-466-2201 April

    Yep. I’ve billed for years and suddenly they aren’t paying.

    By any chance, have those children been transferred over to the Show Me Healthy Kids plan code?

    In our area (Benton County) most children in State care/custody are enrolled in the Show Me Healthy Kids which is a division of Home State Health Medicaid. So they are billed through HSH not EmoMed. I would double check in EmoMed eligibility that they have not been reassigned to the Show Me Healthy Kids program.

    Yes! You are correct! Thank you so much for the help. I am going to be able to go back and bill for quite a few!

    Thank you everyone!
