Florida Medicaid MNT coverage: codes

The short answerFlorida Medicaid's 2026 Practitioner Fee Schedule does not list 97802, 97803, G0270 or G0271. The only nutrition service we found in an official Florida Medicaid document is in the Early Intervention Services coverage policy, which is for young children.

Not for most dietitians. 97802, 97803, G0270 and G0271 are not listed (not on the 2026 Practitioner Fee Schedule). The member's plan still decides coverage, visits and cost sharing, so verify benefits before the first visit.
