Summary
Maryland Medicaid is waiving certain enrollment requirements for Registered Behavior Technicians (RBTs). This allows RBTs to provide covered services under Maryland Medicaid without meeting all standard provider enrollment criteria.
Action Required
Immediately: Behavioral health practices should review current RBT enrollment status with Maryland Medicaid. Contact Maryland Medicaid provider services to determine which enrollment requirements are waived and ensure RBTs can bill for services. Update credentialing records and notify billing team of any RBTs now eligible to provide billable services.
