Summary
Illinois Medicaid (HFS) is transitioning from mailing paper provider notices and bulletins to electronic-only distribution via their website. Providers must register for email notifications to receive alerts when new notices are posted online, as paper mailings will be discontinued.
Action Required
Immediately: All billing staff and providers must register for email notifications at http://www.hfs.illinois.gov/provrel/ to receive alerts about Illinois Medicaid policy updates. Register for both your specific provider category AND the 'All Medical Assistance Providers' category. Each person must register separately. Update email addresses when they change by re-registering. Without registration, you will miss critical Medicaid policy updates that could affect billing and reimbursement.
