Out of State Providers 

“Out of State provider” means a provider who is located more than 50 miles from a North Dakota border within the United States. ND Medicaid does not enroll out of state providers if the service is available in state. To enroll as an out of state provider, a service authorization is required with the exception of services provided in response to an emergency. Please see the Out of State Services policy for detailed information. Out of state emergency services require a retroactive authorization to receive payment. Out of state providers may apply for a retroactive enrollment date for the date of services provided to a member. Please see the Enrollment Effective Date 

Telehealth 

Telehealth services provided to members while they are located in the State of North Dakota by providers complying with all licensing requirements applicable to the designated practitioner type are not considered out of state care. The requirement to request authorization for out of state services does not apply in these situations.  

To enroll as an out of state provider, complete the appropriate application requirements outlined below and include the OOS Telehealth Attestation with your submission.

Revalidation

Revalidations are required to be done for all provider records, regardless of provider type, at least every five years.  DME suppliers are required to revalidate every three years.   

Review the revalidation list for providers who have upcoming or past due revalidations.  Click on the list and do a Ctrl F to search for your name.

To expedite the revalidation process, ND Medicaid relies on Medicare screening if the Group or Individual Provider is ACTIVELY enrolled in Medicare. To do so, providers must ensure the below information matches exactly what is in the Medicare record:

  • Individual: Name, NPI, and Social Security number
  • Group: Legal Business Name, Tax Identification number (TIN), Practice Location, and Ownership information 

After the provider confirms the above information matches, the following documents are the only required documents to submit to complete revalidation:

  • Individual: SFN 615 (Medicaid Program Provider Agreement) and PE Coversheet
  • Group:
    • General - SFN 615- Medicaid Program Provider Agreement; and), SFN 1168 (Ownership/Controlling Interest Conviction Information), and PE Coversheet
    • Pharmacy- SFN 1169- Pharmacy Agreement/Medical Assistance Program, SFN 1168 (Ownership/Controlling Interest Conviction Information), and PE Coversheet
    • NEMT- SFN 620- NEMT, SFN 1168 (Ownership/Controlling Interest Conviction Information), and PE Coversheet

If the Group or Individual Provider is NOT ACTIVELY enrolled in Medicare, revalidation is to be completed by following Step 3 and Step 4 above.
