Enrollment Application Follow Up

After submitting the initial enrollment application using the MPSE portal, MHCP recommends logging into the MPSE portal at least once or twice per week to review the Status/Outcome of your request.

Example of a Submitted Request in the MPSE portal

· The Submit Date column on the left has the date your request was submitted

· MHCP has 30 calendar days from the Submit Date of your request to process your application.

· The Request Actions column has several actions you can take on your request.

· The View Request link allows you to review the submitted items. Note that users will not be able to make changes to a request using this function.

· The Revert To Draft link allows you to change the Status/Outcome to Draft which will then display an Edit link in the Request Actions column. Note that the Submit Date will change if a request is reverted to draft and resubmitted on a different day.

· The Summary Report link allows you to download a PDF version of your submitted request.

· The View Differences Report link is not useful in this scenario and you should not use this link.

Processing Timeline

The Status/Outcome column on the Manage Portfolio page of the MPSE portal indicates where your application is in the Processing Timeline.

· If it has been more than 30 calendar days since your Submit Date, and the Status/Outcome column still reads Pending Review, please contact the MHCP Provider Resource Center to request a ticket to be opened for Provider Enrollment.

· If the Status/Outcome column changes to Draft - Returned, that means you need to take action on the request in some way.

· You should be watch for a Request for More Information letter that MHCP sends through the U.S. Post Office when the Status/Outcome column changes to Draft – Returned status. The Request for More Information letter will detail missing items or items that need correction on your initial application.

· If the Status/Outcome column reads Completed – Approved, that means that MHCP has processed and approved your application.

· Look out for a Welcome Letter from MHCP detailing next steps you need to take. On the Manage Portfolio page, you can review your request at the bottom of the page to ensure that it was submitted properly. You will find other options for the request you submitted to delete, return it to draft status or print a summary report.
