Molina Healthcare Credentialing for Mental Health Providers

Molina Healthcare administers Medicaid managed care plans in many states, which makes it an important panel for providers who want to serve a broader range of clients, including those with limited access to in-network behavioral health care. Because Molina operates as a managed Medicaid plan, enrollment often depends on having your state Medicaid enrollment in place first.

What Molina Credentialing Involves

Most states require active Medicaid enrollment before Molina will process a behavioral health network application, since Molina operates as a managed care organization within the state Medicaid system.

A complete, attested CAQH profile and any state-specific Molina provider forms are required for submission.
