MHCP wants your feedback
MHCP wants feedback from enrolled providers and invites you to take the MHCP Provider Survey. We want to hear from you about what works well, what needs improvement, and what else we should be considering when we work with you to accomplish our shared goals.
Effective January 1, 2025, direct support workers in Personal Care Assistance (PCA) Choice and the budget model of Community First Services and Supports (CFSS) must be paid at least the tiered wage floor based on the experience of the direct support worker.
A tiered reimbursement rate will be paid to PCA and CFSS provider agencies for PCA and CFSS services based on the experience of the direct support worker. The new reimbursement rates beyond the base rate will not increase until March 2025. Minnesota Department of Human Services (DHS) will automatically reprocess claims submitted between January 1, 2025, to March 2025, to pay PCA and CFSS providers the appropriate tiered reimbursement for those claims.
DHS has provided additional information about the tiered wage floors and tiered reimbursement rates in a memo in PCA and CFSS providers’ MN–ITS PRVLTR folder. (pub. 12/13/24)
The Minnesota Department of Human Services (DHS) would like your feedback about barriers and potential solutions to simplify electronic visit verification (EVV) compliance for live-in caregivers. There are still opportunities to provide feedback using one of the following options.

Resubmit an individual provider assurance statement (for example, EIDBI Level I Provider Assurance Statement (DHS-7120D) (PDF)) and a copy of your license by April 30, 2025.

Reminder to all providers: Always check MN–ITS before providing any service.
As of Sept. 1, 2024, the Minnesota Department of Human Services (DHS) is actively enforcing electronic visit verification (EVV) compliance for all providers including financial management service (FMS) providers and managed care organizations (MCOs).
DHS remains committed to monitoring the usage and compliance of EVV systems. Compliance notices will be issued to providers as needed to address and resolve any compliance-related concerns.
On Nov. 13, 2024, DHS began sending memos to providers via their MN–ITS mailboxes alerting them to take immediate action to address EVV compliance issues. Providers receiving a compliance notice must complete the required action steps within 30 days of memo date.
If you have not yet registered for MN–ITS mailbox, you must do so to access important information from DHS about EVV. Refer to the MHCP MN–ITS User Manual for instructions on how to register for MN–ITS and access your mailbox.
Failure to complete the required actions outlined in the memo within 30 days of the memo date may result in stopped payments.
If you believe you received the memo in error or have additional questions, contact the EVV Team using the DSD Contact Form. Include the following information on the DSD Contact Form:
All enrolled national provider identifiers (NPIs) or unique Minnesota provider identifiers (UMPIs)
A list of all the services each enrolled NPI or UMPI provides
Minnesota Department of Human Services will reprocess and pay all incorrectly denied claims with RA code N362 biweekly until the system is fixed.

Minnesota Health Care Programs (MHCP) updated the Robotic Arms section of the MHCP Provider Manual.
We added clarifying information under the Covered Services heading about activities of daily living and instrumental activities of daily living.

Additionally, we updated to require a three-month trial period instead of a rental program. Providers may submit the authorization request for purchase four weeks into the three-month trial period. Members who were authorized under the prior rental program must complete the rental period. Members who are authorized after Nov. 25, 2024, will use the trial period. Under Billing, we explain the warranty period, rental reimbursement, and provider responsibility when adding a robotic arm to the member’s power wheelchair.
