Rhode Island Medicaid enrollment/screening

As a reminder, if you are a Rhode Island Medicaid provider who hasn’t completed screening and enrollment with the state Medicaid program, it is important to do so to ensure that you can continue participation in our Tufts Health RITogether network. 

The 21^st Century Cures Act requires states to screen and enroll all providers who treat Medicaid members, regardless of specialty. Providers who are not screened and enrolled risk removal from the Medicaid network.

If you haven’t already, make sure to complete the RI Medicaid screening and enrollment process so that you can continue to receive reimbursement for Tufts Health RITogether members and ensure you can remain in our Tufts Health RITogether network in the future. 

How to access the Medicaid enrollment/screening application:

• Go to the RI Medicaid Healthcare Portal to initiate a new provider application. There, you can also resume enrollment of an existing application, check the status of a submitted enrollment application, and view the Medicaid Provider Enrollment User Guide.
• For additional information, visit the Rhode Island Executive Office of Health and Human Services or call the Rhode Island Medicaid Customer Service Help Desk at 800-964-6211.

We encourage you to complete the process as soon as possible to avoid any interruption.
