TAKE ACTION: State Medicaid/ROPA Registration Needed for Claim Payments

CMS requires that all managed care network providers are screened and enrolled with the applicable state(s) to receive payment for Medicaid services. This federal requirement applies to all provider types and specialties, and specifically requires both your rendering and billing NPI be appropriately registered.

In addition, billing providers must include the referring, ordering, prescribing, or attending practitioner’s name and individual NPI, as well as the referring, ordering, prescribing, or attending practitioners, NPI taxonomy or state Medicaid ID, in the appropriate claim field(s), most commonly for vision hardware.

Failure to take action may result in the suspension of payments. Our Provider Services team can help validate your information. If you have questions or want to confirm your information, please call our Customer Service department.

Find general information about Medicaid registration and specific information for select states at envolvevision.com/notice.
