Answer
  1. The answer is B false
  2. The answer is A true
  3. The answer is B false
Explanation
Question 1:

EPSDT (Early and Periodic Screening, Diagnostic, and Treatment) services are part of Medicaid, not Medicare. Medicaid is a program that provides health coverage to low-income individuals and families, including children. Therefore, the statement that EPSDT provides services for children enrolled in Medicare is false.

Question 2:

Lead toxicity screening is indeed one of the healthcare screening services provided under EPSDT. The program is designed to ensure that children receive appropriate preventive, dental, mental health, and developmental, and specialty services. Screening for lead toxicity is a critical preventive measure, especially for children in environments where lead exposure is a risk.

Question 3:

Dental services under EPSDT are not limited to emergencies only. The program requires that dental services include relief of pain and infections, restoration of teeth, and maintenance of dental health. This means that comprehensive dental care is covered, not just emergency services.
