Effective Jan 1, 2022, the applicant's gross monthly income may not exceed $2,523.00 (up from $2,382.00). The applicant may retain $130 per month for personal expenses. However, even having excess income is not necessarily a deal-breaker in terms of Medicaid eligibility.
Providers are required to use the WellCare payer ID 14163 for FFS submissions sent through Connect Center.

Better integration amongst agencies and health plans as well as a more intuitive provider user interface would improve the current provider enrollment process. An improved provider enrollment process would create a better provider experience, potentially creating benefit across the Medicaid Enterprise via the following: ▪ Wider access to care for Medicaid recipients as more providers will go through the credentialing process when health plans address areas where access to care is lacking ▪ Lower administrative burdens for both the Agency, health plans, and providers by having one credentialing process for the Agency and health plans
Multiple drivers, enablers, and constraints will affect the MES transformation. Discussion of each of these factors follows.
Organizational Change Management (OCM) will play a critical role not only in transforming the MES project needs within the Agency but in joining the Enterprise (external entities) together toward the common goals. The Agency must be aligned with these changes and key staff must be engaged in how these system changes will modify and improve how processes are carried out, as the new system will create opportunities to streamline many current manual processes.
The Integration Services Platform capabilities provide the highway and network for information needed for subsequent modules and systems to contribute to an excellent experience by all stakeholders, leading to better outcomes across the continuum of care. Specific integration components planned for the Integration Module include: ▪ Enterprise Service Bus (ESB) – connects any request for data or processing to the data or processing service provider ▪ API Gateway – controls access to small APIs that do processing ▪ Publish and Subscribe Alerting – notifies interested systems or parties of information updates relative to a recipient or provider ▪ Managed File Transfer – enables fast and secure transmission of files between systems ▪ Single Sign-on and Secure Authentication – allows users to authenticate to multiple systems using the same user id across systems ▪ Master Person Index and Master Provider Index – processing that identifies records about the same person within a system or found in other systems to link them ▪ Master Data Management – system or rules to evaluate conflicting data about a person or organization to present a best or “golden record” ▪ Service Registry and Service Repository – tracks web services and usage information Based on these design considerations, the Integration Services Platform will enable the Agency to realize benefits in both the nearer and longer-term: Benefits to be Realized Over the Near-Term: ▪ New module integration with the legacy Medicaid Management Information System (MMIS) information and processing ▪ Information access and alert notifications for authorized information consumers at any frequency, including real time. ▪ Improvements in the quality of information ▪ Module to module integration and intercommunication ▪ Role-based security and access control framework for processing within modules and information sharing across modules and systems Benefits to be Realized Over the Long-Term: ▪ A 360-degree view of information about recipients and providers to improve coordination of care
As the Agency evolves, it will add new modules, partners, and data types. The Agency needs a big-data centric Enterprise Data Warehouse (EDW) to store this growing amount of information while maintaining current Service Level Agreements for responsiveness and accuracy. The EDW will improve the Agency’s capabilities to consolidate, organize, analyze, and report on information in the Medicaid enterprise and provides the foundational structure supporting integration of current data collected by the legacy MMIS system and information provided by new module implementations. The EDW will provide the foundation for decoupling data from proprietary applications. To the extent the system decouples data from applications, the interoperability of the system will grow and reduce the intermodular sequencing dependencies. From an outcome perspective, modularization of capabilities that improve data quality and enabling secure real-time data exchange may benefit from specific sequencing. For example, providing recipient data needed for use by pre-submission data edits and validation may accelerate improvements in data quality. The EDW will also increase the quality of data analysis due to better data quality, better increased processing capacity, and improved response time. The EDW will also be a single source of the truth, improving the consistency of information and analysis provided to stakeholders of the program. The components enabling these analytics within the EDW include the following: ▪ Implementation of an operational data store that improves the quality and consistency of information used by that contributing, using, or analyzing data ▪ A reporting Data Store and Data Warehouse containing real-time information optimized for performance ▪ Data marts optimized to support the different analytic needs of different usage profiles (e.g. tactical operations, compliance reporting, investigation, financial analysis, experience analysis, policy analysist, etc.) within the Agency ▪ Business intelligence and analysis tools optimized for Agency usage profiles New data sources for the EDW may include: ▪ The All Payer Claims Database the Agency is currently implementing to expand consumer information by allowing Floridians to search prices, health care quality, and outcomes for services at Florida hospitals
