Frequently asked questions
For Medi-Cal, screenings for children/adolescents (< 21 years) may be repeated annually when medically necessary; for adults (21–64), only one screen per lifetime is reimbursable.
When social needs are identified and referrals made, G9919 must be billed with one or more ICD-10-CM Z-codes (Z55–Z65) that correspond to the identified SDoH domains, as required in some incentive programs like TI 2.0.
