Medicaid Provider Enrollment Must be Completed by June 30, 2023
Date: 06/01/23
Louisiana Healthcare Connections is reminding providers to complete their enrollment process, if not already complete. If providers still need to register the Provider Enrollment Portal at www.lamedicaid.com remains open for providers required to complete enrollment.
Any providers who have not completed enrollment by June 30, 2023, will be deactivated.
Deactivated Primary Care Providers will have their patients assigned to another primary care physician. Providers should expect impacts to claims processing, and risk not getting paid if enrollment is not complete by June 30. Providers with multiple provider types must complete enrollment for each type.
Providers that are unsure of their enrollment status may use the Provider Portal Enrollment Lookup Tool. Results will show the provider’s status as either enrollment complete, action required, application not submitted, or currently in process by Gainwell Technologies. Providers that are not shown in the results are not required to enroll at this time. Invitation letters for those providers will be sent at a later date. The Lookup Tool is updated daily. Providers can find additional information and submit questions on the provider enrollment webpage and in the Informational Bulletin 22-38: Provider Enrollment Requirements.
What if my Provider Type, Provider Specialty, or Taxonomy is listed incorrectly on my provider portal file?
Provider Specialty, Provider Type and Taxonomy change features are now available in the Medicaid Provider Portal. To make changes log in to https://www.lamedicaid.com/account/login.aspx.
Details about the new feature are available in the Provider Enrollment Portal Manuals. Additional information can be found: Provider Enrollment | La Dept. of Health
