After some great follow-up from the DMAS staff we have learned that since most of the prescribing practitioners we deal with for our ID/DD individuals are already Medicaid providers (they bill Medicaid for services currently), that we should not have significant issues.
Be alert, however, to any scripts written by a “hospitalist” as they may not be enrolled in Virginia Medicaid. We may have to ask pointed questions before we accept scripts on behalf of any individual.
