Summary
Indiana Medicaid (IHCP) has issued updated guidelines for Home and Community-Based Services (HCBS) waiver providers regarding certification and enrollment processes. The policy clarifies that providers must first obtain certification from appropriate Indiana state divisions before enrolling with IHCP, and outlines specific procedures for different waiver types including PathWays, Health & Wellness, TBI, CIH, and Family Supports waivers.
Action Required
HCBS waiver providers in Indiana should review their current certification status and ensure they are following proper enrollment procedures. Providers seeking to add services or change locations must contact the appropriate Indiana FSSA division (OMPP or DDRS BDS) before updating their IHCP enrollment. All HCBS waiver billing must use IHCP Provider ID rather than NPI numbers.
