Yes, EIDT services can continue to be billed during a planned transition/discharge notice period as long as the child is still attending and receiving services that meet EIDT program requirements for the services being billed.
Key guidance:
– If a child has tested out of a **specific therapy** (e.g., OT) but still receives other EIDT services (other therapies, ECDS), billing for those continuing services is appropriate through the notice period.
– Billing for the specific therapy the child has tested out of should stop once those sessions cease.
– A 2-week transition notice to allow families to locate another early childhood provider is a reasonable standard practice; document this notice in the client file.
– During the transition period, focus on family education, home program instruction, and referral coordination — these are billable activities in some EIDT billing structures.
– Confirm with your PASSE whether the transition/discharge notice period affects your authorization end date.
