Joining Our Provider Network All out-of-network providers must obtain a PA prior to rendering all services. All Non-Par Providers require authorization regardless of services or codes. To join our network, please complete the Contract Request Form found on our website at https://www.molinahealthcare.com/providers/ms/medicaid/for ms/Pages/fuf.aspx and follow the instructions given. After completing, a representative from our Provider Contracting Department will reach out to you regarding the enrollment and credentialing process. For additional information, email MHMSProviderContracting@MolinaHealthCare.Com 6
DOM Centralized Credentialing Beginning July 1, 2022, providers seeking to join as providers in MississippiCAN will no longer have to credential individually with each CCO. For an interim period from July 1-Aug. 15, 2022, providers will simply need to follow DOM s screening process used for Medicaid fee-for-service instead of completing managed care-specific credentialing. (For technical reasons, CHIP providers will have to enroll with each CHIP CCO during the interim period.) This approach will offer immediate administrative relief as the new system is configured to handle all credentialing. Providers seeking to enroll during the interim period will be required to submit all necessary screening documentation to the current system, Envision, by August 15, 2022. In order to ensure a smooth transition, DOM will temporarily suspend enrollment from August 15 until the new system MESA goes live. Please access the link below for additional details. https://medicaid.ms.gov/wp-content/uploads/2022/06/June-2022-Provider- Bulletin.pdf 7
