On September 1, 2020, the MO HealthNet Division (MHD) implemented a Diabetes Prevention Program (DPP) for eligible adult participants.
These services are Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) recognized DPP services for at risk individuals, intended to prevent Type-2 Diabetes or delay the progression. DPP services are provided during sessions that occur at regular periodic intervals over the course of one year, and, if eligible based upon individual measurable health-outcomes, additional ongoing maintenance sessions at regular, periodic intervals for another year. At these sessions, DPP services include ongoing nutrition or behavioral counseling focusing on weight reduction and lifestyle changes and physical activity and fitness assessments.
More information about the DPP program can be found in Section 13.73 of the Physician’s Manual found on our website at: http://manuals.momed.com/collections/collection_phy/print.pdf.
If you are already an enrolled provider and would like to participate in this new program to provide DPP services and have the proper CDC recognition status, you will need an additional provider number to bill for these services (Provider Type 37).
