Wiki Code changes

[ASH001]

Need documentation on code changes, BMI Current code G8417 being replaced by G0270 and Depression Screening current code 96161 replaced by 96127, does anyone else use these codes for Quality Measures and do you know where the documentation is for these changes. This notification came from our clearinghouse, just trying to verify before changing codes. Any help is appreciated.
