Published 01/17/2025

The following Medicaid payers will require providers to submit a DEX Z-Code® identifier for Molecular Diagnostic Test Services on claims:

  • UnitedHealthcare® Community Plan, effective February 1, 2025

Payers participating with the DEX Z-Code program will direct you to register in the DEX® Registry to obtain Z-Codes with specific requirements. Providing the Z-Code on a claim, with the appropriate CPT® code, will clearly identify the test being performed and eliminate some of the administrative burden encountered surrounding billing for these services.
