Attention: Certified Family Home Providers – Rate Changes for Aged & Disabled Waiver Participants
Certified Family Home (CFH) providers who provide care to participants on the Aged & Disabled waiver must reprocess any claims that were submitted for dates of service on or after April 1, 2023 to receive the new S5140 daily rate. CFH providers may adjust and correct claims that were billed to Gainwell Technologies (GWT), Blue Cross of Idaho or Molina Healthcare of Idaho.
  • For claims processed by GWT, Certified Family Home providers must adjust their claims for dates of service 04/01/2023 and any dates after to add the new prior authorization number in order for the rate increase to be applied to the claims already submitted.
  • For claims processed by Blue Cross of Idaho and Molina Healthcare of Idaho, you will receive communication directly from the managed care vendor on how to proceed.
  • New prior authorizations with updated daily rates will be issued by June 1, 2023. When available, they can be viewed online through the View Authorization tile.
  • When adjusting your claim, be sure to modify the billed charges and the prior authorization number. Tips on adjusting your claim can be found here.  
  • For support with the necessary adjustments, you may contact your Provider Relations Consultant – their contact information can be found here.
Eligibility Verification Reminder

During the Public Health Emergency (PHE) the Families First Coronavirus Response Act kept Medicaid enrollees from being disenrolled from coverage, while the PHE was in force. As a result of the PHE unwinding, Medicaid coverage for individuals who were qualified in this manner may be ending. Idaho Medicaid re-evaluation for participant eligibility is underway.

IDHW is responsible for determining eligibility and any Medicaid participant who has questions should be directed to contact Self Reliance at 1(877)456-1233. Gainwell is not able to address eligibility qualification questions.

Gainwell Technologies is encouraging all providers to diligently review the participant's eligibility on the date of service by verifying their coverage online at www.idmedicaid.com through the secure provider portal, using the Medicaid Automated Customer Service (MACS) line by calling us at 1(866)686-4272 or by sending a Secure Message to us using the provider portal if you have any questions on what is returned on the eligibility information.

Attention All Hospital and Long Term Care Facility Provider Types! Additional Terms Documentation

​An enhancement to the Provider Enrollment Application and the current process in collecting Additional Terms documentation for Hospitals reimbursed using 3MTM All Patient Refined DRG (APR DRG) Software and Long Term Care Facility provider types is moving through our implementation process and we anticipate this change to have provider impact by 05/01/2023. Many providers have already completed the Additional Terms documentation, however, we must require Hospital and Long Term Care Facilities to repeat their acknowledgement and electronically sign the terms that are presented on the Documents tab in the application during their next maintenance. If a change in ownership is reported the Additional Terms will require re-acknowledgement. Thank you for your cooperation in this matter.
