This knowledge path about
Early and Periodic
Screening, Diagnostic, and Treatment
(EPSDT) services in Medicaid has been
compiled by the Maternal
and Child Health Library at
Georgetown University. It offers
a selection of current, high-quality
resources about providing and
strengthening EPSDT services.
The path includes
guidelines for the frequency,
timing, and content
of health-promotion
and disease-prevention services
for infants, children, and adolescents.
Separate sections
present resources for professionals
(health professionals, program
administrators, policymakers,
and researchers) and for families.
A special topics area lists resources
about oral health services as
part of the EPSDT benefit. The
knowledge path will be updated
periodically.
