This fall, changes are coming to Minnesota's Medicaid program due to a federal law that passed last year. Nothing has taken effect yet but the changes are around the corner — the first provision, which impacts noncitizen adults, goes into effect October 2026. Our focus is on helping people understand whether they may be affected, what coverage options may be available and where to get trusted help.
Keep an eye on the "What the new federal budget law means for Medicaid" site over the coming weeks and months for up-to-date news, information and access to resources such as the Renewal Lookup Tool, partner communications toolkits, and much more.
We have answers! Common questions about revalidation, termination, appeals, and much more are addressed in the online provider-specific FAQs. The page is updated regularly with new content informed by what we are hearing most often from providers.
Wondering about LoginMN?
There is also a section in the provider FAQs dedicated to LoginMN, the new secure statewide sign-on system that will be used to access all Minnesota programs and services.
For even more information about the new system, watch Accessing MN–ITS through LoginMN (video, 4 min) and download MN-ITS move to LoginMN FAQs (PDF).
Currently, providers can bill obstetric services globally or by component. However, on Jan. 1, 2027, the American Medical Association is eliminating the global CPT codes. Global codes bundle all prenatal visits, delivery, and postpartum care into a single claim. Under the new system, each phase of care will be billed separately as services are provided. DHS will follow updated billing guidance from the American College of Obstetricians & Gynecologists, posted in a July 2 provider news message on our site.
Due to the high volume of inquiries about revalidation, callers to the Provider Resource Center (PRC) will likely experience longer than usual wait times. Consider using the online contact form to submit your question.
