Enroll as a Medicare and/or Medicaid provider. Generally, to enroll, providers must be state licensed to provide their permissible scope of services.
If you are not an “enrolled” provider, it’s important to work for an enrolled individual or group of health care providers, under which your services can be billed and reimbursed.
Be aware that state budgets and funding priorities directly impact Medicaid programs’ appropriated funding levels.
