7 Health and Human Services Transformation The Rauner Administration is committed to an ambitious Health and Human Services (HHS) Transformation initiative that is grounded in five themes: Prevention and population health; Paying for value, quality, and outcomes; Rebalancing from institutional to community care; Data Integration and Predictive Analytics; and Education and Self-Sufficiency. The issuance of a Purchase of Care Request for Proposals aimed at transforming the Medicaid managed care system is key element of the Health and Human Services Transformation initiative.

15 HFS Series: Succeeding in the New Managed Care #1. What is my relationship with plans that weren t awarded a contract for the new program? #2. Five key ways the new managed care will mean less work for providers #3. Simplified credentialing: Cutting back on provider overhead costs #4. How HFS and the health plans will communicate transition details to clients #5. How you can help your patients understand what they need to know about this transition

16 Simplified Credentialing From HFS: Under the new program, registering with the Department s online provider enrollment program will become the only requirement to begin developing relationships with every Medicaid managed care health plan Medicaid providers will need to only register with HFS IMPACT website Once an application is approved by HFS, the provider is considered credentialed with the Health Plan. Please be aware of two important features of this upgrade. First, the change applies only to Medicaid, not Medicare or other products. Second, although providers will be credentialed through IMPACT, they should continue to provide specific information requested by MCOs that is not included in the credentialing process but is needed for MCO Operations, such as provider office hours. Credentialing on it s own does not mean a provider and a health plan will be doing business together. Provider and plans must still enter into contractual relationships and satisfy all necessary operational requirements.
