26 Assisting Clients New to ICP Are the client s provider s in the plan(s) network(s)? Check Enrollment Broker website: or call Enrollment Broker at (877) Verify by contacting plan directly. If a provider is not in any ICP plan networks, client can ask/encourage provider to consider joining plan networks. Clients will have 90 day transition period from the beginning of the ICP program (can continue seeing current providers during that period even if they are not in network). For waiver services, will have 180 day transition period. 26

27 Assisting Clients New to ICP Turning 65 and becoming eligible for Medicare Individual should enroll in Medicare and will begin receiving services from Medicare and fee-for-service Medicaid as a dual eligible. Dual eligibles will be enrolled into Managed Care Organizations in 2014, but for now, these individuals will be put back into regular fee-for-service Medicaid to supplement their Medicare coverage. Department of Healthcare and Family Services (HFS) must disenroll the person from ICP if person gets stuck, need to call HFS ( ). ICP plans cannot fix this. 27
