Provider Enrollment Application

To become an Iowa Medicaid provider, you must submit an enrollment application to the Iowa Medicaid Provider Enrollment Unit. You will not be paid for any services provided before your application is approved.

The application helps Iowa Medicaid ensure that providers meet all federal and state requirements before they can enroll.

To make the process easier, Iowa Medicaid created a Provider Enrollment Process Chart, which explains each step of enrollment. Once approved, providers must also complete the Managed Care Organization (MCO) credentialing process.

  • Enrolling for the first time
  • Adding a new practice location
  • Re-enrolling

This is required under federal regulations (CFR §455.460).
