HFS NOTICE: IMPACT Provider Revalidation-Due Date Extensions





IMPACT Provider Revalidation-Due Date Extensions


To: Participating Medical Assistance Providers
Date: March 15, 2016
Re: IMPACT Provider Revalidation-Due Date Extensions

The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services has extended the due date for all Medicaid providers to be revalidated to September 24, 2016. Please note that to meet this date a provider’s enrollment must be submitted in IMPACT and approved by the State prior to this date in order to avoid delays in Medicaid claims processing.
                  
As a result, HFS is extending the due dates for provider revalidations as follows:
Facility/ Agency/Organizations (FAOs) revalidation has been extended to June 30, 2016.
Based on the above requirement and understanding that FAOs and groups must enter the IMPACT system prior to individual providers, HFS will further extend the revalidation due date for Individual/Sole providers to August 31, 2016.
More information on the IMPACT system plus frequently asked questions, webinars and other training guides are available at the IMPACT website.
