IHCP to Implement Extended Transition Period for Providers in Move Toward Brokered NEMT Services

​The Indiana Health Coverage Programs (IHCP) began brokering nonemergency medical transportation (NEMT) services for fee-for-service members through Southeastrans Inc. effective June 1, 2018. The IHCP implemented a 30-day transition period from June 1 to June 30 to allow members and providers time to adjust to the new requirements and processes. Effective immediately, IHCP is extending the implementation transition period through Sept. 30 specifically for health care facilities and emergency medical services transportation providers that may have established ongoing transportation arrangements in place. The additional time will allow for further training and communication to facilitate the transition of these services to the Southeastrans network and the brokering processes. Read more here. ​​​
