Summary

Nevada Medicaid will now correctly deny endodontic procedure claims (D3110-D3999) when a tooth extraction was previously performed and paid on the same tooth number. Claims that paid incorrectly from August 2023 through May 2026 will be automatically reprocessed and may result in recoupments.

Action Required

Action needed
Immediately: Billing team must review all Nevada Medicaid endodontic claims (D3110-D3999) from August 14, 2023 through May 18, 2026 to identify potential recoupments from automatic reprocessing. Update billing system to flag endodontic procedures when prior extractions exist on same tooth. Monitor future remittance advices for reprocessed claim results and prepare appeals if necessary.
