Second Round of Revalidation for DHS Enrolled Providers Announced

December 8, 2022
By Bobbie Guidry

The Department of Human Services (DHS) will send Provider Revalidation notices to HCBS providers with names beginning with S and T at the end of December. Affected settings provide waiver services in home and community-based settings, including Adult Day Services and Assisted Living (Customized Living).

All providers must complete revalidation at least once every five years.

Check your MN–ITS PRVLTR file regularly for important notices, including letters to notify you that you are due for revalidation. If you have not set up a MN–ITS mailbox, MHCP will send your notice of revalidation to the credentialing address recorded on your enrollment record.

If you are enrolled as more than one provider type, you will receive a separate notice for each type. If you are consolidated and have more than one file for a provider type, you will receive one notice with instructions to send the required information for each file.

If you are subject to a fee, you must pay when you submit your revalidation documents.

You are subject to a site visit if you are assigned a high or moderate risk level. The post-enrollment site visit may occur any time within the five years before your next revalidation. You can continue receiving payments from MHCP while the site visit is pending

More information about the revalidation schedule and process can be found in the Provider Screening Requirements section of the Provider Basics Manual. 

Do not send any revalidation documents until you receive your initial revalidation notice. You will receive a revalidation notice when you are due for revalidation. Review the Revalidation Schedule in the MHCP Provider Manual for more information. Do not call the MHCP Provider Resource Center unless you know you are due for revalidation and have not received a revalidation notice.

DHS has scheduled revalidation training for Home and Community-Based Services (HCBS) on:

LeadingAge Minnesota also has the recorded training provided by DHS in November available to members in the LeadingAge store at no charge.
