The Department processes individual case information and fee-for-service bills every week. Files received by 5:00 p.m. on Monday are processed that week and sent to the Comptroller for processing by the following Monday. Files received after the deadline are processed during the next weekly cycle.
Below is a list of the most common reasons bills for developmental disabilities services are rejected, along with recommendations for correcting and retransmitting the bills. Also included is information about the Toll-Free Number and the MEDI Web Site that the Department of Healthcare and Family Services maintains so that enrolled providers can verify Medicaid information for individuals they serve.
After correcting these problems, rejected bills must be re-transmitted to DHS.
