Rate Increase for Pregnancy Risk Screening (PRS) Form.

To promote the early detection of pregnancy, effective 1/1/23 Carolina Complete Health (CCH) increased the rate for the pregnancy risk screening (PRS) tool from $50 to $100. In accordance with NC DHHS Clinical Coverage Policy 1E-6, providers shall bill the HCPCS code S0280 after the PRS screening tool has been completed. CCH providers can complete the PRS using the forms available on the Pregnancy Medical Home website and fax to CCH Care Management: 833-417-0446. Providers may also complete the PRS on the CCH Secure Provider Portal. Once in the member’s health record, view the Assessments tab on the left, and complete the notice of pregnancy (NOP).

The PRS tool is used to notify Carolina Complete Health of the member’s pregnancy and to identify women in need of pregnancy care management services. Providers can also securely send the PRS to the Local Health Department (LHD) as a referral into the Care Management for High Risk Pregnancy (CMHRP) program.

Additionally, CCH reimburses for the postpartum visit using HCPCS code S0281 in accordance with guidelines from NC DHHS Clinical Coverage Policy 1E-6.
