Provider Training 2022

Iowa Medicaid will hold quarterly provider training sessions in addition to the annual provider training that takes place each year. The quarterly and annual training sessions will likely be held virtually. All sessions, quarterly and annual, will include representatives from Iowa Medicaid and the MCOs.

Annual Provider Training

2022 Iowa Medicaid Annual Provider Training sessions will be held in-person and via Zoom live broadcast. There will be six 4-hour sessions. Each session will cover the same material; providers need only sign up for one session. Iowa Medicaid will record the sessions and post the recordings to the HHS website for providers who are unable to attend.
