Apple Health (Medicaid) Provider Alert
The Ground Emergency Medical Transportation (GEMT)
Provider Participation Agreement (HCA 42-0002) is
available on the Health Care Authority’s (HCA’s) website.
What is the purpose of this agreement?
The purpose of the agreement
is to let HCA know which qualifying publically owned or operated ground
ambulance providers want to participate in the GEMT supplemental payment
program.
When is the deadline?
You must complete, sign, and
return the agreement to HCA no later than January 31, 2018. This deadline
ensures that HCA has time to send you the data needed to complete your annual
cost report (due March 31, 2018).
How long is the signed agreement effective?
The signed agreement is
effective for one year. A separate
participation agreement is required for each year the provider would like to
participate in the program. HCA is accepting agreements for state fiscal years 2016
through 2019.
Please direct questions or
concerns to Shauna Penn, GEMT program
manager, at HCAGEMTAdmin@hca.wa.gov.
