Ask & Code: Documenting Homelessness Throughout the Health Care System

A National Health Care for the Homeless Council Webinar

Alyssa Thomas 0 20056

This webinar complemented our policy brief and discussed how the ICD-10-CM code for homelessness (Z59.0) was implemented at a Health Care for the Homeless grantee in Colorado, and how a hospital system instituted a housing status screening tool in Pennsylvania. A leading managed care entity shared why Medicaid plans need to have this information, and preliminary results from a pilot project in Texas using the Z59.0 code to identify homelessness among Medicaid beneficiaries were reviewed.
