In March 2020, the Ohio Department of Medicaid (ODM) stopped producing the “Universal Roster” of practitioners affiliated with behavioral health (BH) agencies (MITS provider types 84 and 95) and moved to the MITS Provider Master File (PMF) as the system of truth for Medicaid provider enrollment (see the March 2020 MITS BITS bulletin).
However, BH providers requested that ODM continue producing and updating the Community Behavioral Health Center (CBHC) Medicaid Provider File listing all practitioners affiliated with behavioral health provider agencies. ODM has continued to produce and update the CBHC Medicaid Provider File as a convenience for provider agencies.
As a step toward full transition to the Provider Network Management (PNM) module, effective April 28, ODM has discontinued producing and posting the CBHC Practitioner Enrollment File from MITS data. Providers can now access practitioner affiliation information through the PNM module by selecting the Group, Organizations & Hospital Affiliations panel.
To learn more about the PNM module and Centralized Credentialing, visit the PNM and Centralized Credentialing page on the Next Generation website. If you are experiencing technical issues accessing the PNM module or have specific questions, please contact the ODM Integrated Helpdesk at 800-686-1516 or IHD@medicaid.ohio.gov. The ODM Integrated Helpdesk is open 8 a.m.-4:30 p.m. Monday-Friday, Eastern time.
