The Pennsylvania Department of Human Services (DHS) has implemented the Affordable Care Act (ACA) provision requiring all CHIP network providers and practitioners who render, order, prescribe or bill for items or services to CHIP enrollees to be screened and enrolled with DHS.
Effective July 1, 2019, claims for services rendered to a CHIP enrollee that are submitted by a provider who does not have a PROMISe ID that corresponds to the location where the service(s) were rendered will be denied in accordance with DHS requirements.
If you would like to continue receiving payment for services rendered to CHIP enrollees, please complete your enrollment with the Department as soon as possible.
Enrollment information and the ability to enroll electronically are available at the following website: http://dhs.pa.gov/provider/promise/enrollmentinformation/CHIPProEnrollInfo/index.htm.
Providers are encouraged to enroll electronically.
If you have any questions or issues with the enrollment process, contact the Provider Enrollment Hotline at 1-800-537-8862, select options 2, 4 and finally option 2 to speak to a representative.
