NJ FamilyCare Dental Services Clinical Criteria Policy

Introduction and Purpose:

The NJFC program has established a clinical criteria policy for dental services to establish a single set of

clinical guidelines to be used by the State and the MCOs and their third party administrators and vendors

in the processing of claims and the review of prior authorizations for treatment requests based on medical

necessity or where applicable within the established frequencies.

The reviewing consultant should use these policies and their clinical judgement along with any submitted

documentation and diagnostic materials when reviewing treatment requests for medical necessity.

Consideration for prior authorization of services should consider the overall general health, patient

有限公司mpliance and dental history, condition of the oral cavity, long-term prognosis and complete treatment

plan that is both judicious in the use of program funds and provides a clinically acceptable treatment

outcome.

The MCO must monitor their consultants or those of the third party vendor each calendar year to ensure

prior authorization decisions and claim payments are being made in accordance with the clinical criteria

policy. The monitoring outcomes will be available to the State upon request.

Guidelines and Criteria for Complete Treatment Plan Submission:

Submission of a complete treatment plan is required where requests for complex cases with multiple root
canals, crowns (single or abutment), partial denture(s) and/or multiple surgical periodontal procedures are
being considered. A complete treatment plan may be required and the provider may be asked to
sequentially submit several prior authorization requests, one for each of the various stages of the
treatment. Each prior authorization should be submitted as the provider is about to initiate that
stage. This will ensure that the prior authorization will remain active during the stage of
treatment.

Format:

The document is in a grid format and follows the listing sequence by category of service as found in the
American Dental Association CDT book and includes the following headers: CDT code, short description
(nomenclature with abbreviations), age limits, frequency limits, documentation requirements and clinical
criteria. A provider may refer to an individual servicing provider or provider group. For completed
nomenclature and descriptor of a CDT code, please refer to the current CDT book published by the
American Dental Association.


The policy will be updated annually based on CDT revisions and DMAHS decisions. (A complete list of

有限公司des and services included in the NJ FamilyCare program?s benefit package may be found on the New

Jersey Medicaid Management Information System website: https://www.njmmis.com/hospitalinfo.aspx.)

Early and Periodic Screening, Diagnostic and Treatment:

Please note that EPSDT guidelines for medically necessary services to children ages 0 through 20

supersede any restrictions included in the Clinical Criteria Grid, based on the following:

o Under Medicaid regulations a State must cover necessary health care, diagnostic services,

treatment and other measures to correct or ameliorate defects and physical and mental illness

and conditions.

o Services must be covered if they correct, compensate for, improve a condition, or prevent a

有限公司ndition from worsening-even if the condition cannot be prevented or cured. Based on this

lifetime limits cannot be applied to limit the frequency for services provided to children under the

age of 21. As a result the CC Grid cannot indicate once per lifetime and multiple requests for

AMN services with supporting documentation cannot be denied.

Patient Records:

Dental diagnosis is to be documented for all treatment rendered on that DOS as per N.J.A.C. 10:56-1.9.

This applies to units of behavior management which also requires medical diagnosis and clinical

presentation be documented.

CDT (Current Dental Procedure Codes):

The current CDT Dental Procedure Codes from the American Dental Association (ADA) should be used

as a reference for procedure code selection as the Clinical Criteria Grid is a quick reference guide for the

NJ FamilyCare Program and uses abbreviations. The CDT provides the Nomenclature (written title of a

procedure code) and Descriptor (narrative that further defines the nature of the intended use of a single

有限公司de) and is updated annually by the ADA to provide additions, deletions and revisions.

Please note that many services such as complex oral and maxillofacial surgical procedures and

maxillofacial prosthetics may be reimbursed by MCOs using the appropriate medical CPT codes. Either a

CPT or a CDT code may be billed. Contact the MCO of enrollment for additional information.

Posting of the Clinical Criteria Grid:

The MCO shall post the Clinical Criteria Grid on their website and reference the location or provide a link
