Utah Medicaid Provider Manual

Other documents

In December of 2011, the Utah State Bulletin published a series of proposed rules, which included a provision to allow for concurrent care for clients under 21 years of age. The rule also included a section clarifying that Medicaid shall reimburse the appropriate Medicaid enrolled medical care providers directly through the customary billing processes. In addition, the rule indicated that each pediatric hospice provider should develop a training curriculum to ensure that the hospice’s interdisciplinary team members on trained on pediatric-specific practices which address growth and development, pediatric pain and symptom management, loss, grief, and bereavement for pediatric families and the child, communication, psycho-social and spiritual care of children, and coordination of care with the child’s community. This can be found under the heading R414-14A-10. Concurrent Care for Client’s Under 21 Years of Age, on page 14, at this link.
