Frequently Asked Questions

Perhaps you have a few questions. Take a look at some that were commonly asked below. If your question isn't answered here, we're happy to help. Please email Jessica Emmerich and she will respond with the appropriate resources. 

Am I Required to Accept All Medicaid Patients? 

No. How often and how many Medicaid patients you decide to see is at your discretion. Some dental providers choose a percentage of their total patient-load to dedicate to Medicaid care. Others set a certain day of the week to see only Medicaid patients. The decision is yours.  

Is There a List of All Doctors Accepting Medicaid?

Yes! You can use the Provider Search Tool to find other providers in your area or providers for referrals.

How Long Does It Take to Get Credentialed?

About 60 business days depending on if the application is filled out correctly and if more documentation is needed. 

Where Can Providers Find the Updated Fee Schedule?

A link to the fee schedule is provided in the presentation. Providers should reference the fee schedule on the MO HealthNet provider page for the most current rates. Watch for Provider Bulletins about added codes and rate changes.
