USPSTF recommendation-Clinical Considerations–Patient Population under Consideration-These recommendations apply to adults 50 years of age and older, excluding those with specific inherited syndromes (the Lynch syndrome or familial adenomatous polyposis) and those with inflammatory bowel disease. The recommendations do apply to those with first-degree relatives who have had colorectal adenomas or cancer, although for those with first-degree relatives who developed cancer at a younger age or those with multiple affected first-degree relatives, an earlier start to screening may be reasonable. Furthermore, when the screening test results in the diagnosis of clinically significant colorectal adenomas or cancer, the patient will be followed by a surveillance regimen and recommendations for screening are no longer applicable.

The Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (ACA) defines preventive care services as follows:

  • Items or services recommended with an A or B rating by the U.S. Preventive Services Task Force.

  • Immunization recommended by the Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP) of the Center for Disease Control (CDC). (children , adolescent, and adult)

  • Preventive care and screening for infants, children, and adolescents supported by the Health Resources and Services Administration (Bright Futures).

  • Preventive care and screening for women supported by the Health Resources and Service Administration. (These guidelines have not been defined yet.)

 

All providers must use the codes provided in this document when filing claims for healthcare reform mandated preventive services for a Blue Plan member.

 

If the preventive services section of your plan's benefit booklet refers to any of the preventive services and immunizations in this document, they will be covered by your health plan. However, a group may decide to delay the effective date for coverage until the group's plan year for any new preventive services and immunizations recently added to this list. If a plan covers these services, please be aware that in some cases, routine preventive services and routine immunizations may be billed separately from an office or other facility visit. In that case, the applicable office visit or outpatient facility copayments described in the physician benefits and outpatient hospital benefits sections of the benefit booklet may apply. In any case, applicable office visit or facility copayments may still apply when the primary purpose for a visit is not routine preventive services and/or routine immunizations. If you have any questions about a plan’s benefits, you may call our Customer Service Department at the number on the back of the ID card.
