When must I get an early and periodic screening, diagnosis, and treatment (EPSDT) exam for a child?
(1) Children who enter out-of-home care, except for children placed by DDA through a voluntary placement agreement, must receive an EPSDT exam within 30 days, unless they have had an EPSDT exam in the previous 30 days. DCYF caseworkers will notify you when subsequent EPSDT exams are required.
(2) For children placed by DDA through a voluntary placement agreement, follow the direction of DDA regarding the need for an EPSDT exam after placement.
