Minnesota Revalidate 2026

Providers that deliver high-risk services and benefits must complete off-cycle revalidation by May 31, 2026. Learn more. If you are seeking assistance, there are multiple weekly provider portal training sessions about revalidation navigation in MPSE. And don't forget the MPSE portal is available 24/7 to check enrollment records, submit documentation, and more.
