SUD Treatment Provider Credentialing
All providers must participate in the credentialing process required by MDHHS in order to initiate and/or continue a contractual relationship with the CMHPSM region. MDHHS has revised this process to include Universal Credentialing, intended to provide reciprocity and reduce duplication when a provider contracts with more than one entity.
Universal Credentialing
Public Act 282 of 2020 required MDHHS to create a Universal Credentialing (UC) program, to establish, maintain, and revise, as necessary, a uniform CMH services credentialing program. The Universal Credentialing Customer Relationship Management (CRM) function allows for the process of credentialing or recredentialing (link to state policy) Licensed Independent Practitioners (LIP’s) as well as Organizational Providers.
For SUD providers, this means that the organizational credentialing the CMHPSM or our CMHSPs completes with your organization initially and every three years will be done through this system. The UC was built in the MDHHS CRM system which you may have become familiar with when completing ASAM LOC designations.
Once the CMHPSM/CMHSP you contract with sets up your profile/account UC-CRM, the designated contacts for your agency will receive an email indicating that a profile has been created for your organization. Your agencies' contacts will then be able to access and complete the credentialing application and upload the necessary documents; you can save and return to the application if needed. The initial process of submitting an application can be lengthy, but once all is entered initially, updating every three years will be more succinct.
While the application has moved to the UC-CRM, there are still credentialing steps that need to be done outside the system with CMHPSM/the CMHSP you contract with, and you will be contacted about these next steps. This includes needing to complete Attachments A-D available as links below and sending the completed documents to the CMHPSM/the CMHSP contact. For providers that contract with CMHPSM, you can send these documents to contracts@cmhpsm.org.
Once your agency completes the application and submits it in the system, CMHPSM/the CMHSP will be alerted, and we will complete our sections (i.e. uploading primary source verification, audit info), including requesting any revisions to the application. Within 90 days after your application is completed, your agency will be notified by the CMHPSM/CMHSP when the credentialing process is finalized and the outcome.
What to Do If Your Agency is Already Credentialed With Another PIHP:
There is a way for our region to use the application your agency has in the UC-CRM through a subscription process. When this is the case, the CMHPSM/CMHSP will be in touch with you on the steps needed to subscribe to your application. The CMHPSM Universal Credentialing Procedure in resources on this site and job guides in the UC-CRM have information on the process.
Your agency will still need to complete the credentialing steps done outside the system with the CMHPSM/CMHSP that you contract with, including completing and sending Attachments A-D.
