Attention: Community Alternatives Program for Children (CAP/C) Stakeholders Announcement of the expiration of two CAP/C HCPCS codes

The single G-code of G0154 for skilled nursing services expired effective Dec. 31, 2015. Claims for G0154 submitted with a date of service on or after Jan.1, 2016 will deny.
