Medicare calling all Counselors and MFTs

Marriage and Family Therapists will become eligible to provide services to Medicare clients as of January 1, 2024. To be eligible to be paid by Medicare, you will need to be enrolled as a Medicare provider.  Enrollment will likely be opening in the 2nd or 3rd week in November and the earliest you could see a Medicare client would still be January 1, 2024.  Submit your application via https://pecos.cms.hhs.gov.  You will be assigned a Medicare analyst, who will review your application and may request additional information or clarification.  Respond promptly and you will become a Medicare provider in approximately 45 days.
