The Health Care Authority (HCA) recently sent the following alert to dental Medicaid providers.

Proposed Rule Making - Public Hearings (CR102)

WAC 182-535A-0040, Orthodontic treatment and orthodontic related services - Covered, noncovered, and limitations to coverage.

To read the filing notice and view the proposed rules, see WSR 23-17-086.

HCA is amending this rule to make language less restrictive in subsection (5)(c) from covering a “case study when done in conjunction with limited or comprehensive orthodontic treatment only” to a “case study when done in conjunction with orthodontic treatment.”
