1 INDIANA HEALTH COVERAGE PROGRAMS PROVIDER CODE TABLES Note: Due to possible changes in Indiana Health Coverage Programs (IHCP) policy or national coding updates, inclusion of a code on the code tables does not necessarily indicate current coverage. See IHCP Banner Pages and Bulletins and the IHCP Fee Schedule for updates to coding, coverage, and benefit information. Previous versions of code tables are archived for purposes of historical reference. For information about using these code tables, see the Surgical Services provider reference module.
