The bulletin references March 2016 as being the due date/last day for provider revalidation.

Is that the last day that I can submit my provider revalidation application? Is that the day I will receive provider revalidation confirmation from South Carolina Healthy Connections Medicaid?

South Carolina Healthy Connections Medicaid mailed revalidation notification letters for phase 1 of provider revalidation on June 4th, 2015. South Carolina Healthy Connections Medicaid provider revalidation will occur in phases from June 2015 to March 2016. When it is time to revalidate your enrollment as a South Carolina Healthy Connections Medicaid provider, you will receive a revalidation notification letter in the mail. Revalidation FAQs PDF

What if my revalidation notification letter is returned due to an incorrect address?

If the revalidation notification letter is returned to South Carolina Healthy Connections Medicaid as undeliverable mail, we will call you using the phone number on file in order to update your address. You will need to follow the standard procedure to update your address. To update your address, please fax or mail a letter requesting an address change to MCCS Provider Enrollment on company letterhead. The Provider Enrollment fax number is (803) 870-9022. The address is Medicaid Provider Enrollment, P.O. Box 8809, Columbia, SC 29202-8809. The letter should include the provider’s legacy and NPI numbers, as well as the new address, along with the provider’s or an authorized person’s signature and a contact person’s name and telephone number in case there are any questions. Once the address information is updated and the revalidation notification letter is re-sent, the provider will still have 30 days from the date on the original revalidation notification letter to fully complete the provider revalidation process.

If you are unable to be reached using the phone number on file, your inability to complete the provider revalidation process means that you have voluntarily terminated as a South Carolina Healthy Connections Medicaid provider and will need to enroll as a new provider.

If I do not receive the revalidation notification letter, what can I do?

Have you recently changed your mailing address? Was the proper procedure followed to inform SCDHHS of the change? To update your address, please fax or mail a letter requesting an address change to MCCS Provider Enrollment on company letterhead. The Provider Enrollment fax number is (803) 870-9022. The address is Medicaid Provider Enrollment, P.O. Box 8809, Columbia, SC 29202-8809. The letter should include the provider’s legacy and NPI numbers, as well as the new address, along with the provider’s or an authorized person’s signature and a contact person’s name and telephone number in case there are any questions. Once the address information is updated and the revalidation notification letter is remailed, the provider will still have 30 days from the date on the original revalidation notification letter to fully complete the provider revalidation process.

If you have not recently changed your mailing address, please remember that South Carolina Healthy Connections Medicaid provider revalidation will occur in phases beginning in June 2015 and ending in March 2016. Providers should not take any steps to revalidate until they receive their revalidation notification letters. If you have not received a revalidation notification letter and your contact information is current with SCDHHS that is a strong indication that your provider revalidation phase has not begun.
