Summary
Michigan Medicaid now covers services provided by Certified Nurse Midwives (CNMs) including maternity care, gynecological services, and women's primary care. CNMs must enroll as Medicaid providers and bill under their own NPI, with reimbursement based on physician fee schedules.
Action Required
For Michigan practices: CNMs providing services to Medicaid beneficiaries must complete enrollment in CHAMPS with Individual (Type 1) NPI. Update billing procedures to ensure CNM claims include the CNM's NPI in the Rendering Provider field and supervising physician NPI when applicable. Verify CNM fee schedule rates at michigan.gov/medicaidproviders for proper reimbursement.
