They are still counting provider applications at DSS for participation in PCCM, but early returns are encouraging. Dozens of providers have applied, including physicians, nurse practitioners and physician assistants, from across the state. All but one community health center has applied. We’ll let you know when we have a definitive list for the opening of the program January 1st. It is important to know that providers can still apply, they just may not be in the network as of Jan. 1 – DSS has promised to get people into the program as quickly as possible. Participating providers can join the PCCM Provider Advisory Group and guide the program’s design including operations, provider feedback and program evaluation. For an application, click here.
