Providers enrolled with Minnesota Health Care Programs (MHCP) as EIDBI agencies can create their Provider Hub account and begin the application.
Review this message for help getting started in the Provider Hub and reminders on required actions/timelines.
The individual who will serve as the Authorized Agent for the EIDBI agency should create a Provider Hub account. They’ll use their account to access the provisional license application in the Provider Hub.
What is an Authorized Agent?
The EIDBI agency must designate one of its controlling individuals to be the Authorized Agent (as defined in Minnesota Statutes, section 245A.02, subdivision 3b). The Authorized Agent is the person responsible for communicating with Minnesota Department of Human Services (DHS) Licensing.
Find more information about this role on page two of the Pre-Licensing Application Checklist (PDF).

Before the Authorized Agent starts the EIDBI provisional license application in the Provider Hub, it may be helpful to do these things first:
Review the Pre-Licensing Application Checklist (PDF). This checklist can help you prepare to complete your provisional license application. The checklist is not required; it is not the application for provisional licensure. It was originally shared with enrolled EIDBI agencies in December.
Gather the following information:
-
Enrollment record ID — Find this in the Minnesota Provider Screening and Enrollment (MPSE) portal by logging in to your MN-ITS account.
- Federal Employee Identification Number (FEIN)
-
Provider identifier — Either a National Provider Identifier (NPI) or Unique Minnesota Provider Identifier (UMPI). Find this in the MPSE portal or the Welcome Letter sent by the Minnesota Department of Human Services (DHS) when your enrollment was initially approved by Minnesota Health Care Programs (MHCP).
You’ll need this information to “claim” (or access) your provisional license application in the Provider Hub. Only enrolled EIDBI agencies are allowed to complete the application.

When ready, the Authorized Agent should log in to the Provider to start the EIDBI provisional license application.
