10.15.2016 Follow-Up After Care for Children Prescribed ADHD Medication In the Technical Update memo, the reference to “February 28” in the Intake Period definition was replaced with “February 29” because 2016 is a leap year. Should organizations make the same change to the “Ages” criteria in the Eligible Population of Rate 1 and Rate 2?

No.  Use February 28 of the measurement year when identifying the Age of the member for Rate 1 and Rate 2.  NCQA does not make changes that impact software programming after the release of the Technical Update memo.
