Application and credentialing process

Credentialing and recredentialing process for Medicaid providers

Georgia's Department of Community Health (DCH) now has an NCQA certified centralized Credentialing Verification Organization (CVO) that is responsible for credentialing and recredentialing Medicaid providers currently enrolled or seeking to enroll with Amerigroup in the state of Georgia.

  • Providers are required to credential through the Department of Community Health’s (DCH) Centralized Credentialing Verification Organization (CVO).
  • All individual practitioners and facilities currently enrolled or seeking to enroll with a Care Management Organization (CMO) will be credentialed and recredentialed through the centralized CVO. 
  • The CVO’s Credentialing Committee is responsible for credentialing Medicaid providers enrolled or seeking enrollment in the Georgia Families or Georgia Families 360°SM programs.
  • Independent Physician Practice Associations (IPA) and Physician Hospital Organizations (PHO) that conduct their own credentialing and to whom the CMOs delegate credentialing are excluded from this process.
  • Pharmacies are excluded from the DCH CVO requirements. Once they have established a National Council for Prescription Drug Program (NCPDP) profile with their Medicaid ID and NPI, new pharmacies must contact CVS/Caremark — which oversees the pharmacy network for CarelonRx, Inc. — to enroll into our network.

Submit an application for Medicaid provider credentialing through the GAMMIS web portal .

Questions regarding the centralized CVO initiative can be directed to cvo.dch@dch.ga.gov .

If you have questions regarding joining our pharmacy network, contact CVS/Caremark at 866-488-4708 or caremark.com .
