Two Options for Electronic Payment and Remittance Advice

1. Please create a PaySpan account, which will save time, ensure secure electronic payments, and eliminate unnecessary printing. Note that even if you prefer a paper check with an electronic remittance, you will still need a PaySpan account. 
2. Complete an Online Electronic Data Interchange (EDI) Enrollment form if you want a paper check and electronic remittance from your clearinghouse. 

Required Training and Attestation 

MVP Providers are required to complete various trainings and attestations throughout the year. Not every Provider is necessarily required to take every training or complete attestations.

Prior Authorization Policy Guides can be accessed for New York and Vermont Providers. Please review the Medical and Behavioral Health Prior Authorization forms 

To ensure that your patients have your most up-to-date information and access to care, Providers are asked to notify MVP immediately when they have changes to their demographics. This includes verifying that phone and fax numbers are current, as well as office location information and more. 

Use the Online version of the MVP Provider Demographic Change Forms to submit changes to MVP. 

Access and Availability Standards 

Per New York State and Vermont requirements, Providers are asked to meet access and availability standards to ensure health care services are provided in a timely manner. MVP encourages you to review the current standards to verify that your patients have timely access to necessary health care. From time-to-time MVP and regulators may contact you to validate that these requirements are being met.
