(viewable in excel)

IMPORTANT PROVIDER NETWORK REQUIREMENTS
•
PSS networks must be as complete as possible in order for the initial attribution to be
accurate.
•
Each PPS must attest that each network partner included in the provider network tool
has officially consented to be part of the PPS. This requirement applies to BOTH initial
and final attribution. The week of September 15th, DOH will email the lead PPS’ with
information on how to fulfill this requirement.
•
Do NOT add network partners that have not formally agreed to be part of your PPS! Rule:
If you are unsure - leave the provider out.
•
Get ready - Have your file ready to go (in the correct format with all current network
providers) when the file import capability is added on September 15th.
•
Pay particular attention to 3 critical fields:
 Provider Name
 Provider NPI #
 Provider MMIS #
