MISSOURI MEDICAID PROVIDER ENROLLMENT INTRODUCTION
The Provider Enrollment Unit is responsible for enrolling new providers and maintaining provider records for all Missouri Medicaid provider types. There are approximately 60+ Medicaid provider types.
At this time select applications are available electronically, applications that are “paper” can be requested from MMAC Provider Enrollment. Please email MMAC.ProviderEnrollment@dss.mo.gov for the current version of the form(s).
Provider information is confidential Missouri Medicaid provider information is not released to ANYONE by telephone, facsimile, or any electronic method. MO HealthNet provider information is not sent by mail to any address other than the provider address listed on the MO HealthNet Provider Enrollment master file. It is the PROVIDER'S responsibility to notify billing agents, clinics, groups, corporate offices, etc., of all pertinent information regarding the provider.
It is the PROVIDER'S responsibility to ensure that their provider records are kept up to date. The provider must report any changes to the Provider Enrollment Unit. If the Provider Enrollment Unit is not properly informed of changes the provider number is made inactive.
Each MO program has different enrollment requirements. All providers of MO HealthNet must have a valid participation agreement with the Missouri Department of Social Services (DSS), Missouri Medicaid Audit and Compliance (MMAC). An investigation of the provider's professional background will be conducted pursuant to 13 CSR 70-3.020. The validation of the participation agreement depends upon the Director of Social Services or his/her designee's acceptance of an application for enrollment.
Each provider of services to Missouri Medicaid recipients must enroll separately.
If you have questions or need assistance completing the enrollment forms, contact the Provider Enrollment Unit by e-mail at providerenrollment@dss.mo.gov . For questions regarding billing, contact the Provider Communications Unit at 573-751-2896. For questions regarding claim filing training, contact the Provider Education Unit at 573-751-6683.
MO HEALTHNET PROVIDER ENROLLMENT APPLICATION PROCESS
Each provider application is reviewed and must go through the same audit process.
The application is processed in the date order received by the Provider Enrollment Unit. Paper applications that have been returned to the provider or Internet applications that are denied by e-mail are not processed as a priority.
When the provider enrollment is finalized, an e-mail stating the provider's name, address, NPI number and effective date of approval is sent to the contact person’s e-mail address. The effective date of enrollment cannot be prior to the effective date of required program documents, such as license, certification etc. The MO HealthNet Provider Manuals are available at no charge via the Internet at www.dss.mo.gov/dms. It is the provider's responsibility to notify their biller of their provider number and any other claim filing information or instructions.
Once a provider number is established, any future changes in the provider records must be submitted in writing to the Provider Enrollment Unit via the Provider Update Request form. If the provider is licensed or certified by another state agency such as the Department of Health & Senior Services, Department of Mental Health, or Medicare, that agency must approve the changes prior to Provider Enrollment Unit approval. New provider enrollment records are not issued for changes. If the Provider Enrollment Unit is not properly informed of changes the provider number is made inactive.
New provider records are not issued for any type of changes. Payments go to the provider currently indicated on the Provider Enrollment Master File at the time the claim is processed. The provider is responsible for, but not limited to: separating dates of service and payments, resubmitting denials, and submitting paper crossover claims for any Medicare/Medicaid services that do not crossover electronically, before and after the change is made to the Provider Enrollment Master File. If a new provider number is issued in error due to change information being withheld at the time of application, the new provider number is made inactive, the existing provider number is updated, and you may be subject to sanctions.
If backdating the enrollment is granted, this does not suspend the timely filing requirement for any claims, nor does it guarantee payment. Claims submitted after backdating the effective date and denied for timely filing, are not considered for reimbursement. An original claim must be received by the state agency within 12 months (365 days) from the date of service. Medicare crossover claims must be received within 12 months from the date of service or 6 months from the date of Medicare's notice of disposition.

The provider name(s), NPI number, and signature of the provider must be included on the form. New enrollment records are not issued for, but not limited to these changes:

Federal Tax Identification Number change at same practice location

payment name or address change
Once the Provider Update Request form is received, the Provider Enrollment Unit determines what action needs to be taken. Some changes can be made from the form, other changes require an update application be completed.
MO HealthNet providers must enroll and bill MO HealthNet in the same manner they enroll and bill Medicare in order for Medicare/MO HealthNet claims to crossover electronically and be reimbursed appropriately. MO HealthNet providers must enroll at the physical practice location the Medicare number is issued.
Physicians, APNs, and CRNAs are no longer required to enroll at each Medicare or MO HealthNet practice location. However, they are still required to submit Medicare documentation so the claims can crossover automatically.
It is the provider's responsibility to file claims to MO HealthNet for any Medicare/MO HealthNet crossover claims that do not crossover automatically; wait 60-90 days before submitting claims. Duplicate billing of crossover claims is considered MO HealthNet fraud.
MO HealthNet has a contract with several carriers to automatically crossover Medicare/MO HealthNet claims. If you have a Medicare number with more than one carrier please submit documentation for all carriers, separate MO HealthNet provider records may be necessary in some cases.
Some MO HealthNet providers are only permitted to be reimbursed for crossover claims on QMB-ONLY participants; therefore not all of their Medicare claims are paid.
SEPARATE MEDICARE NUMBERS FOR EACH OFFICE LOCATIONS:
If services are provided to MO HealthNet participants at different office locations that have separate Medicare numbers for each location, separate MO HealthNet enrollment records must be created for all providers and the providers must bill under the appropriate Medicare and MO HealthNet record for each location. This applies to all providers except: Physicians, APNs, and CRNAs.
SAME MEDICARE NUMBER FOR MORE THAN ONE OFFICE LOCATION:
If services are provided to MO HealthNet participants at different office locations and all locations are approved by Medicare to use one Medicare number, then all providers must enroll with MO HealthNet in the same manner and bill with one Medicare number and MO HealthNet enrollment record. Since all offices are permitted to use the same Medicare number in this instance, all providers must enroll at the physical location the Medicare number is issued even if they do not practice at that location.
CLINIC MEDICARE NUMBERS
Medicare/MO HealthNet services that have been issued a Clinic Medicare number must automatically crossover to a Clinic MO HealthNet provider record. If the clinic is not enrolled, the Medicare/MO HealthNet claims do not crossover automatically. Physician, Advanced Practice Nurse, CRNA, Podiatrist, and Diabetes Self-Management individuals must enroll and bill as MO HealthNet performing providers. All other provider members must enroll and bill under their individual provider name and record.
Kansas City MO Medicare/MO HealthNet carrier crossover claims:
When the clinic is issued a Medicare number, each individual provider is also issued a number as a member of the clinic. The clinic Medicare number is three digits followed by zeros and sometimes an alpha character. The member of the clinic is enrolled as a performing provider. The Medicare number will be the clinic's first three digits followed by at least four digits indicating their individual Medicare number with the clinic. The Medicare clinic and performing provider records are matched to the MO HealthNet clinic and performing provider records. The Medicare claims crossover automatically and are reimbursed under the Clinic MO HealthNet provider record. Therefore, if the clinic is not enrolled, an individual member of the clinic who is providing Medicare/MO HealthNet services is not enrolled, or, if the Medicare number is not showing on the MO HealthNet provider enrollment file, the Medicare numbers cannot be matched and crossover claims are not reimbursed.
Medicare Services (BC/BS Arkansas) crossover claims:
When the clinic is issued a "Clinic or Group Medicare number" (i.e. 000012345), each individual is also issued a number as a member of the clinic, in this instance the clinic must enroll in order for the Medicare/MO HealthNet claims to crossover automatically. The Medicare claims crossover and pay under the clinic MO HealthNet provider record. The performing providers are not verified during this process, therefore, a list of all members must be submitted and all members of the clinic must be enrolled with MO HealthNet or a clinic MO HealthNet provider record is not created. If the clinic enrolls but each member is not enrolled and the clinic receives Medicare/MO HealthNet payment for non-enrolled members of the clinic, it is considered MO HealthNet fraud. If any physicians, advanced practice nurses, CRNAs, or podiatrists refuse to enroll as performing providers and MO HealthNet pays for Medicare claims that automatically crossover, it is considered fraud. MO HealthNet claims must be billed using the clinic provider name and number as the billing provider and the individual physician, advanced practice nurse, CRNA, podiatrist, and diabetes self-management as the performing provider.
Medicare documentation to be submitted to MO HealthNet so the Medicare number can be added to the provider file: all providers must submit a copy of the letter received from Medicare, the letter must show the clinic name, Medicare provider number, and practice address if possible. The letter must include the names and Medicare numbers of all members within the clinic. If the letter is not available, request a letter from Medicare verifying the clinic Medicare number and the Medicare number of all members within the clinic.
INDEPENDENT PROVIDERS PRACTICING IN A
HOSPITAL OR NURSING HOME SETTING ONLY
Independent podiatrists, radiology groups, pathologists, or independent CRNA groups may enroll at the administrative office location as long as none of their services are performed in an actual office setting and the administrative office is located in Missouri or bordering state. If the administrative office address is used, the provider must submit a cover letter stating they do not perform services in an office, state the name and address of the facility(s) where the services are performed, and must maintain a permanent license in the state where the services are performed. If the provider has separate Medicare numbers for each hospital or nursing home they serve, the provider must submit documentation of all Medicare numbers, Provider Enrollment determines if separate MO HealthNet numbers are necessary.
New providers whose applications are available on the Internet must complete the Electronic Funds Transfer (EFT) Authorization Agreement included with the online application. These applications have a separate signature page that covers the entire application.
An Electronic Funds Transfer (EFT) Authorization Agreement will be included in the enrollment packet for those applications that remain on paper.
The Electronic Funds Transfer (EFT) Authorization Agreement is available at the MMAC website under MO HealthNet Forms. The form must be printed and completed, must contain the provider's signature, and must be submitted by mail. If the provider is enrolled as an individual, he/she must sign the form with his/her signature. Applications for facilities such as nursing homes, hospitals, home health agencies, etc. must be signed by a person listed on the CMS-855 as an owner. If enrolled as a clinic or business entity (except those listed above) the form must be signed by the person with fiscal responsibility for the same.
A separate Electronic Funds Transfer (EFT) Authorization Agreement must be completed for each National Provider Identifier (NPI) enrolled with the MO HealthNet Programwhether beginning electronic funds transfers or when changes occur. If one NPI is being used for multiple MO HealthNet programs, the taxonomy code for each program pertaining to the Electronic Funds Transfer (EFT) Authorization Agreement must be entered on the form.
Electronic funds transfers is initiated after a properly completed Electronic Funds Transfer (EFT) Authorization Agreement is approved by the Missouri Medicaid Audit and Compliance (MMAC) and the successful processing of a test transaction through the banking system. The provider receives a paper check at the current payment name and address recorded on the Provider Enrollment Master File during the test transaction period.
Provider electronic funds transfers continue to be deposited into the designated account at the specified financial institution until the MMAC receives an Electronic Funds Transfer (EFT) Authorization Agreement requesting a change. Do not close an old account until the first payment is deposited into the new account.
The MMAC terminates or suspends the electronic funds transfer option for administrative or legal actions including, but not limited to, ownership change, duly executed liens or levies, legal judgments, notice of bankruptcy, administrative sanctions for the purpose of ensuring program compliance, death of a provider and closure or abandonment of an account.
If any information completed on the Electronic Funds Transfer (EFT) Authorization Agreement form cannot be verified, the form is not fully completed or completed incorrectly, the form(s) are returned without being processed for electronic funds transfer.
