Overview

This section in the Minnesota Provider Screening and Enrollment (MPSE) portal contains information about the provider’s physical address, mailing address(es), and file location address. Note that the Mailing Address and File Location Address sections of the MPSE portal do not become available until you have completed the Physical Address section and if you did not select the physical address as the mailing or file location address.

Add or Update a Physical Address

The physical address is the practicing address of your organization. It may also be the address Minnesota Health Care Programs (MHCP) uses to send documents like authorizations and paper checks. This address will be used when billing for services.

Minnesota Health Care Programs (MHCP) uses SmartyStreets, a USPS-certified address verification service, to confirm that addresses entered into MPSE are valid and deliverable. If you believe your address is correct but are getting an error message that the address is not found in the USPS system, contact USPS and let them know that SmartyStreets is unable to validate your address and they can assist in correcting it.

Note: If you use a National Provider Identifier (NPI) as your provider identifier, you must update your physical address with the National Plan and Provider Enumeration System (NPPES) before updating your physical address in the MPSE portal. If applicable, you may also have to update your address with the Minnesota Department of Health (MDH) Licensing, the Department of Human Services (DHS) Licensing, the Office of the Minnesota Secretary of State, or other credentialing or insurance licensing agencies.
