Louisiana Medicaid launched its Medicaid Provider Enrollment Rebaseline on October 25, 2024, and future rebaselines for new providers will occur every two months thereafter.
Rebaseline means new managed care organization (MCO) credentialed providers not enrolled with Louisiana Medicaid will receive an invitation to enroll through the web portal. The invitation letter will provide specific provider information and detailed instructions needed for the enrollment process.
Providers who receive an enrollment invitation letter must enroll with Louisiana Medicaid to avoid impacts on claims processing. Providers with multiple provider types must complete an enrollment for each type.
Providers will have 120 days to complete enrollment and must allow several weeks for application processing. If they do not complete enrollment within 120 days of receiving the enrollment invitation letter, they will be denied claims and deactivated from the Louisiana Medicaid program.
Providers who are still determining their enrollment status or want to check their application status may use the Provider Portal Enrollment Lookup Tool at https://www.lamedicaid.com/portalenrollmentstatus/search. The results will show the provider’s status as either complete enrollment, action required, application not submitted, or currently being processed by Gainwell Technologies. Providers not shown in the results are not required to enroll at this time. Invitation letters for those providers will be sent at a later date.
For additional information, visit www.ldh.la.gov/medicaidproviderenrollment. Providers needing assistance with enrollment should contact Gainwell Technologies by emailing louisianaprovenroll@gainwelltechnologies.com or calling 833-641-2140 Monday through Friday between 8 a.m. and 5 p.m. CST.
