From the October 3, 2022 edition of DODD's Memo Monday:
Provider Network Management Go Live Information
Attention: All Providers, County Boards, Business Managers, CEOs, COG Directors, DCs, ICFs
On October 1, 2022, the Ohio Department of Medicaid (ODM) launched Stage 2 of the Next Generation of the Ohio Medicaid program. This launch includes the Provider Network Management (PNM) module, which is the new single point of entry to DODD’s Provider Services Management (PSM) system.
All DODD providers will utilize the new PNM module for all activities related to their certification for DODD waiver and non-waiver services. This includes applications for initial certification, renewal certification, address changes, etc.
Questions related to the PNM module, OH|ID, and portal password support should be directed to the ODM Integrated Help Desk at (800) 686-1516 or to visit the PNM and Centralized Credentialing webpage on ODM’s website.
Questions related specifically to certification activities within PSM should continue to be directed to the DODD Support Center at 1-800-617-6733.
Other components of Phase 2 include the distribution of new Medicaid identification cards, the implementation of the Single Pharmacy Benefit Manager (SPBM) for Medicaid eligible people who are enrolled with a managed care plan, and centralized credentialing for providers who contract with Medicaid managed care plans.
To learn more about Ohio Medicaid’s Next Generation program and mission, visit the Ohio Medicaid Next Generation website, managedcare.medicaid.ohio.gov.
