What You Should Know About This Form

1. What is the purpose of the HDO Application form?

The HDO Application form is utilized for the initial credentialing or recredentialing of health delivery organizations with Molina Healthcare. This process ensures that organizations meet required standards for participation in Molina's network. Successful completion of the application does not finalize contract approval but is a necessary step for organizations seeking to contract with Molina Healthcare.

2. What information must be included in the HDO Application?

The application must be filled out completely and include information such as the organization's legal name, Medicare and Medicaid numbers, Tax Identification Numbers (TINs), and National Provider Identifiers (NPIs). Incomplete applications will be returned for corrections before processing. Additionally, supporting documentation such as current licenses, proof of liability insurance, and the W9 form are required to accompany the application.

3. How should I submit the completed HDO Application?

The completed application, along with all required attachments, should be submitted to the address specified on your cover letter. Ensure that the application is complete and free of white-out or alterations, as these can cause delays or rejection.

4. What if my organization has multiple locations?

If your organization operates multiple locations, you may need to complete separate applications for each location, depending on your accreditation status and past surveys. For locations covered by a single survey, one application may be sufficient. Each location must provide relevant details as specified in the application form.

5. What happens if the application is incomplete?

Submitting an incomplete application will result in its return for completion prior to processing. It is crucial to ensure all sections are answered, even if the information is not applicable, to avoid delays in the credentialing process.

6. What accreditation documents are required with the HDO Application?

If your organization is accredited, you must provide documentation such as the most recent survey results and the letter verifying approval from CMS, if applicable. If not accredited and required to be certified by CMS or the State, you will need to submit the latest on-site survey results conducted by the appropriate agency.

7. What is the attestation section of the HDO Application?

The attestation section of the application requires the authorized agent to certify that the information provided is complete, accurate, and current. It also grants Molina permission to verify the information provided and conduct on-site reviews if necessary. Misstatements or omissions can lead to denial of the application, so accuracy is vital.

Common mistakes

Filling out the HDO Application form can be a straightforward process, but there are common mistakes that applicants often make. These mistakes can lead to delays or even rejection of the application. Understanding these pitfalls is essential for a successful submission.

One common error is failing to provide complete information. Every section of the application must be answered completely. Incomplete applications will be returned for further information, causing unnecessary delays. This includes not only the organization information but also current insurance coverage and physical location details.

Another mistake is the use of white-out or correction fluid on the application. This practice is prohibited, as it can obscure important information and may lead to the perception that the application is not being handled with care. It is essential to double-check entries and make corrections only by striking out the incorrect information and writing the correct information beside it.

Not understanding the requirements for multiple locations can also complicate the process. If an organization has more than one location, a separate application must be submitted for each if they have undergone different state or accreditation surveys. If unsure, it’s better to seek guidance on this matter before proceeding.

Inadequate documentation is another frequent misstep. All necessary attachments, such as licenses, certification approvals, and insurance coverage documents, must be included. Omitting these documents can lead to processing delays. If an organization isn't accredited, it's necessary to include recent survey results, as required.

Failing to provide the required contact details is also common and can hinder communication. Applicants often forget to fill out the contact name, email address, and phone numbers clearly. Ensuring this information is accurate and easily readable is vital for any follow-up communication.

Another mistake stems from misunderstanding accreditation requirements. Applicants sometimes check boxes incorrectly related to accreditation status or fail to check additional required boxes. It’s essential to thoroughly review the section on accreditation to ensure compliance and complete understanding.

Lastly, some applicants do not realize the importance of the attestation section. This section requires the authorized agent to certify that all information is accurate and complete. Neglecting to sign, date, or provide a printed name here can result in application delays. This signature signifies the commitment to uphold the information provided, which is integral to the approval process.

By being aware of these common mistakes and taking the necessary steps to avoid them, applicants can streamline the process of completing the HDO Application. Approaching the form with attention to detail can significantly enhance the chances of successful credentialing with Molina Healthcare.

Documents used along the form

The Health Delivery Organization (HDO) Application Form serves as a critical document in the credentialing process for healthcare organizations seeking to partner with Molina Healthcare. In order to complete this application effectively, several other documents are often required. Each of these documents plays a significant role in verifying the eligibility and operational status of the applying organization.

  • Organizational Licenses/Certifications/Registrations: This document confirms that the healthcare organization holds the necessary state or federal licenses and certifications to operate legally. It ensures that the organization meets all relevant regulatory standards.
  • Letter of CMS Participation Approval: If applicable, this letter serves as proof that the organization has received approval to participate in Medicare programs. It acts as a validation of the organization’s compliance with specific Medicare guidelines.
  • Liability Insurance Face Sheet: This document details the organization's liability insurance coverage, including policy numbers and coverage amounts. It is essential for demonstrating the financial protection available in case of malpractice claims.
  • W-9 Form: Organizations must provide a completed W-9 form to disclose their Tax Identification Numbers (TINs). This form is necessary for tax reporting purposes and ensures compliance with IRS regulations.
  • CMS or State Survey Results: If the organization is not accredited, recent CMS or state survey results may be required. These results provide insight into the quality of care and operations of the organization, validating compliance with industry standards.

Submitting the proper accompanying documents with the HDO Application Form is crucial for a smooth credentialing process. Each document serves a purpose in establishing the qualifications and reliability of the healthcare organization, ultimately facilitating a successful partnership with Molina Healthcare.

Similar forms

  • Provider Credentialing Application: Like the HDO Application form, this document collects essential information for healthcare providers seeking to work with a specific health insurer. Both require detailed organizational information, including licensing, certifications, and insurance details.

  • Medicare Enrollment Application: This form is necessary for healthcare organizations or providers to enroll in the Medicare program. Similar to the HDO Application, it demands proof of current licensure and accreditation, ensuring that the applicants meet required standards.

  • State Licensing Application: Each state has its own licensing requirements for healthcare organizations. Much like the HDO Application, it mandates submission of detailed information regarding organizational structure, physical locations, and compliance with state regulations.

  • Facility Accreditation Application: When seeking accreditation from healthcare accreditation bodies, organizations must provide information about their policies, procedures, and standards. This process mirrors the HDO application in its depth of required documentation and commitment to quality care standards.

  • Insurance Provider Network Application: This application enables healthcare providers to become part of an insurance network, much like the HDO form. It entails documenting credentials, insurance coverages, and prior performance metrics.

  • National Practitioner Data Bank (NPDB) Report: This document collects data related to healthcare practitioners’ licenses, malpractice claims, and other professional behavior. It serves a similar purpose to the HDO application in assessing the validity and performance of healthcare organizations.

  • Credentialing Recredentialing Form: This form is completed at regular intervals for re-evaluation of healthcare providers. It resembles the HDO Application in its need for updated information regarding credentials, performance evaluations, and compliance with current regulations.

  • Corporate Insurance Information Form: This document outlines an organization’s liability coverage and risk management strategies. It parallels the HDO Application’s requirement for current insurance documentation, ensuring all entities have coverage in place.

  • Health Services Organization Application: This application is tailored for organizations providing a range of health services. Similar to the HDO Application, it requires comprehensive organizational details and a commitment to compliance with state and federal regulations.

  • Organizational Compliance Checklist: This checklist guides healthcare providers in ensuring adherence to legal and contractual obligations. It functions akin to the HDO Application by focusing on regulatory compliance and detailed documentation requirements.

Dos and Don'ts

10 Things to Do and Not to Do When Filling Out the HDO Application Form

  • Do: Read all instructions carefully before starting the application.
  • Do: Complete each section fully without leaving any blanks.
  • Do: Submit all requested documents along with the application, such as licenses and insurance information.
  • Do: Ensure the legal name of your organization matches the name registered with the IRS.
  • Do: Use correct and updated contact information for your credentialing contact.
  • Don't: Use white-out or any correction fluid on the application form.
  • Don't: Forget to provide separate applications for multiple locations with differing information.
  • Don't: Submit an incomplete application; it will be returned for correction.
  • Don't: Assume your application is approved just because it has been submitted.
  • Don't: Leave sections blank if there are no checkboxes indicating they are not applicable.

Misconceptions

  • Misconception 1: The HDO Application can be submitted without all documentation.
  • This is incorrect. A completed application must include all required documents. Incomplete applications will be returned, causing delays in processing.

  • Misconception 2: Only accredited organizations need to complete the HDO Application.
  • This is not true. All organizations seeking initial credentialing or recredentialing with Molina Healthcare must submit this application, regardless of their accreditation status.

  • Misconception 3: You only need to submit one application for multiple locations.
  • This depends on the situation. If each location has had separate surveys, a separate application is required for each. However, one application can be submitted if all locations have been surveyed on the same date or if they are not required to be surveyed.

  • Misconception 4: White-out can be used on the application if needed.
  • Actually, using white-out on the application is not allowed. It is essential to fill out every section completely and clearly without alteration.

  • Misconception 5: The application is the only step in the credentialing process.
  • This is misleading. While the application is crucial, credentialing approval does not finalize network participation. A contract must also be completed for participation with Molina Healthcare.

  • Misconception 6: You can use any version of the W9 form for submission.
  • This is incorrect; the application specifically requests Page 1 of a current W9 form showing all federal Tax Identification Numbers. It's important to use the correct version to avoid additional complications.

  • Misconception 7: All applicants are automatically granted credentialing approval.
  • This is not the case. Credentialing approval is contingent upon meeting all requirements outlined in the application and additional evaluations by Molina Healthcare.

  • Misconception 8: The application is optional for established facilities.
  • This is false. All facilities, including established ones, must submit the application for recredentialing or initial credentialing if seeking participation with Molina Healthcare.

  • Misconception 9: The application can be submitted via any method.
  • It is important to follow specific submission guidelines. The application and all attachments should be sent to the location specified in the cover letter, as outlined in the instructions.

Key takeaways

  • Complete Application: Fill out every section of the HDO Application form. Incomplete applications will be returned for completion.
  • Separate Applications: If your organization has multiple locations with different surveys, use a separate application for each one.
  • Attachments Required: Include necessary documents such as licenses, insurance information, and any CMS participation letters.
  • Avoid White-Out: Do not use white-out on any part of the application; corrections should be made by crossing out and initialing.
  • Contact Information: Provide accurate contact details for billing and credentialing purposes to ensure smooth communication.
  • Insurance Details: Attach a copy of the current liability insurance face sheet and indicate if your facility is required to carry insurance.
  • Survey and Accreditation: If the organization is not accredited, include the most recent CMS or State survey results if required.
  • Signature Required: The application must be signed by an authorized agent, confirming accuracy and completeness of the provided information.
  • Return Address: Send the completed application and attachments to the location specified in the cover letter, ensuring timely processing.
