​Providers: Payment Error Rate Measurement (PERM) Review - Reminder to Submit Medical Records

The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) Payment Error Rate Measurement (PERM) Program for Reporting Year (RY) 2023 is currently reviewing the West Virginia Medicaid and West Virginia Children's Health Insurance Program (WVCHIP) to measure improper payments in order to maintain the integrity of the Medicaid program. The Review Contractor, Empower AI, is authorized to collect information from providers and to review documentation to ascertain adherence to Medicaid regulations.

Empower AI may require additional documentation and/or clarification of medical records to complete the desk audit review. To facilitate this desk audit review, West Virginia Medicaid and WVCHIP appreciate your cooperation in providing the documentation within the allotted time to Empower AI. This documentation is necessary to verify compliance with Federal and State regulations. Due to the extent of the PERM review, West Virginia Medicaid and WVCHIP ask for timeliness of submissions to aid in expediting the PERM review process.

Failure to return documentation by the due date will result in West Virginia Medicaid or WVCHIP recovering the payments by either the provider refunding the amounts or recouping the amounts from future payments.  A pay-hold will be placed on the provider until the amounts are recovered. If you are unable to provide the requested documentation, please respond to Empower AI in writing within the time allotted. Should you require additional information or have questions you may call CMS' Review Contractor's Customer Service Representatives at (800) 393-3068, for West Virginia Medicaid, your state PERM representative, Lisa Landers at Lisa.K.Landers@wv.gov or 304-558-1700 or for WVCHIP, you may contact Paula Atkinson at Paula.M.Atkinson@wv.gov or 304-414-5965.

Providers: Payment Error Rate Measurement (PERM) Review - Reminder to Submit Medical Records

The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) Payment Error Rate Measurement (PERM) Program for Reporting Year (RY) 2023 is currently reviewing the West Virginia Medicaid and West Virginia Children's Health Insurance Program (WVCHIP) to measure improper payments in order to maintain the integrity of the Medicaid program. The Review Contractor, Empower AI, is authorized to collect information from providers and to review documentation to ascertain adherence to Medicaid regulations.

Empower AI may require additional documentation and/or clarification of medical records to complete the desk audit review. To facilitate this desk audit review, West Virginia Medicaid and WVCHIP appreciate your cooperation in providing the documentation within the allotted time to Empower AI. This documentation is necessary to verify compliance with Federal and State regulations. Due to the extent of the PERM review, West Virginia Medicaid and WVCHIP ask for timeliness of submissions to aid in expediting the PERM review process.

Failure to return documentation by the due date will result in West Virginia Medicaid or WVCHIP recovering the payments by either the provider refunding the amounts or recouping the amounts from future payments.  A pay-hold will be placed on the provider until the amounts are recovered. If you are unable to provide the requested documentation, please respond to Empower AI in writing within the time allotted. Should you require additional information or have questions you may call CMS' Review Contractor's Customer Service Representatives at (800) 393-3068, for West Virginia Medicaid, your state PERM representative, Lisa Landers at Lisa.K.Landers@wv.gov or 304-558-1700 or for WVCHIP, you may contact Paula Atkinson at Paula.M.Atkinson@wv.gov or 304-414-5965.

EFT PROJECT 

IMPORTANT - A MUST READ

The WV Bureau for Medical Services is implementing an Electronic Fund Transfer (EFT) payment initiative and will no longer be sending paper checks. 

WV Medicaid/WVCHIP Providers who are currently receiving reimbursement by a paper check will receive letters, emails, and calls as a reminder to update their EFT documentation.

Please contact Gainwell Technologies to set up your EFT immediately to continue receiving payments.  EFT Forms are available on the State Auditor's Website https://www.wvsao.gov/ElectronicPayments/#WVMedicaid.  Please select the WV Medicaid WVCHIP Direct Deposit (Setup) Form and submit this form to create your EFT.

The deadline for completing your EFT is January 1, 2024.  Your account will be placed on PAY HOLD if your EFT information is not received by this deadline.  The PAY HOLD will remain in effect until EFT information is submitted.

If you have questions, please email WVProviderEnrollment@gainwelltechnologies.com or call (888)483-0793.

​If you are also enrolled in Managed Care, you will receive a card from that plan, as well. 
  • Medicaid Member Card:  When you qualify as a Medicaid Member, you get a Medicaid card.
  • Only you can use your card.  It is against the law to let anyone else use it.
  • Important Information about your card.   Please be sure to keep it in a safe place so you will have it when you need it. If you lose your card, you may ask for another one by:
    • Calling your case worker at your local Department of Health and Human Resources (DHHR) office, or
    • Calling the DHHR Customer Service Center at 1-877-716-1212.

    If you, or someone in your household, have a medical appointment and you cannot find your Medical Card, you can get a Letter of Creditable Coverage. This letter is only good for the day it is printed. Go to www.wvmmis.com and click "Sign In" at the top of the page. Enter your username and password.  

    If you do not have internet access, your health care provider can confirm your Medicaid eligibility.

    If you have any questions, contact your case worker or the DHHR Customer Service Center at 1-877-716-1212.
