# §441.59. Treatment of requests for EPSDT screening services.

- (a) The agency must provide the screening services described in [§ 441.56(b)](/cfr/42/441.56.md?p=b) upon the request of an eligible beneficiary.
- (b) To avoid duplicate screening services, the agency need not provide requested screening services to an EPSDT eligible if written verification exists that the most recent age-appropriate screening services, due under the agency's periodicity schedule, have already been provided to the eligible.
