On July 1, 2019, all Substance Use Disorder (SUD) Waiver services, except for Opioid Treatment Programs (Methadone), will be covered by Medicaid Managed Care Organizations (MCOs) for their members. SUD providers will receive prior authorizations for services from and submit billing for services to the MCOs for members enrolled within their health plan. All SUD providers should prepare for this upcoming transition by ensuring they are enrolled and credentialed with the MCOs below:
