Important Operational Reminders for You
Please read below for updates on MCNA's operations and important information that could affect your practice. Verification of Member EligibilityMCNA continually updates eligibility based on the files we receive from the plans we serve. We encourage providers to verify eligibility on the date of service to reduce the likelihood of a claim denial due to the member not being eligible. Avoiding Claim DenialsWe have noticed an increase in claim denials due to the requested service not being covered under the member's benefit plan. Please verify that services are covered under the member's plan. You may do so by referencing your MCNA Provider Manual or by contacting our Provider Hotline at 1-855-776-6262. Please note, certain services have frequency limitations so you may also have to check the member's history in the Provider Portal to ensure he or she is within the appropriate timeframe for services.

Review of MCNA's Re-Credentialing Process
We would like to take a moment to provide you with a brief overview of our re-credentialing process. MCNA's Credentialing department initiates re-credentialing activities with a provider after 36 months of uninterrupted participation in our network. We will send you a re-credentialing application in the mail once you have been active in our network for at least three years. When you receive it, complete the application with all pertinent information and return it to us, ensuring that all supporting documentation is included. We will handle the rest to ensure your continued participation with us! If you have questions please call our Provider Hotline at 1-855-776-6262 to be connected with our Credentialing department. We look forward to hearing from you and to your continuing partnership with us!
