Third Party Billing

Third Party Billing is the process for the Maryland Medical Assistance Program (Medicaid) for health related services, as well as service coordination (case management), provided by the Cecil County Public School System (CCPS) or the Cecil County Infants and Toddlers Program, for children with disabilities. Third Party Billing provides CCPS with an opportunity for increased funding to supplement programs and services for children with special education needs. Although all children are guaranteed a "free appropriate public education," Part B and Part C of the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA) explain that while education agencies are fiscally responsible for educational services, they are not the only agency fiscally responsible for related services. In addition, Public Law 100-360 authorizes the school system to seek reimbursement from all sources for health related services as long as there is no cost to the family.

What Services are Eligible for Reimbursement?

CCPS can apply for reimbursement for services required by a child's Individualized Family Service Plan (IFSP) or Individualized Education Program (IEP). Services eligible for reimbursement include:

Audiology
Psychology services
Nutrition services
Service coordination/Case management
Nursing services
Social work services
Occupational therapy
Speech and language services
Physical therapy
Transportation
