Which application to complete and submit?
Enrollment applications are based on how reimbursements are reported to the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) and provider type. Some provider types must enroll using a federal Employer Identification Number (EIN) and some must enroll using a Social Security Number (SSN).
Standard Provider Application enrollment most often requires the use of an EIN , with a few exceptions for enrollment using a SSN. This is a direct pay, or billing entity, where reimbursements are reported to the IRS under the EIN. Enrollment using an EIN may require at least one association, or affiliation, with the individual that will directly render services to the Medicaid client. The direct pay entity submits claims on behalf of the rendering individual when appropriate.
Rendering Provider Application enrollment requires a SSN only. A rendering provider is the individual that provides services to a Medicaid client. In most instances, a rendering provider has the option to be either a direct pay entity or an indirect pay entity under only his/her SSN. If an individual has obtained an EIN to identify a business entity, both a rendering and a standard application may need to be completed. For instance a dentist will need to enroll once as an indirect pay, or rendering provider, using his/her SSN and as a direct pay provider using the EIN to complete the Standard Provider Application for a dental clinic.
Change of Ownership (CHOW) or Change in EIN Information for Providers
Providers must contact Provider Services prior to the effective date of the Change of Ownership (CHOW) or change in EIN. Advance notice is crucial for claim submissions regarding both the termination of the old provider number and assignment of the new provider number.
