Required Documentation
As a provider you are required to maintain documentation to ensure your continued certification. Below are a SOME of the required documentation for a provider. Depending on your certification your requirements may be different. If you have questions please contact Muskingum DD Provider Support staff at providersupport@muskingumdd.org.
MUI/UI Information and Forms:
This form is to be used when something unusual happens in a person’s life.
Unusual Incident Log Review Form must be completed monthly even if there are no Unusual Incident Reports that month.
MUI Analysis Form is completed annually in January.
As an HPC or Shared Living Provider: If you provide transportation you must complete transportation documentation.
Providers of HPC services are required to use EVV to clock in and out and record their times of service. Electronic Visit Verification, or EVV, is a requirement under the 21st Century Cures Act, a federal law passed in December of 2016. Under the 21st Century Cures Act, states must implement an electronic system to verify certain home and community-based services were delivered in order to continue receiving federal financial support toward the costs of those services.
*Shared Living Providers are not required to use EVV
Optional Forms:
5123-9-06 Providers of home and community-based services shall maintain the records necessary and in such form to disclose fully the extent of home and community based services provided, for a period of six years from the date of receipt of payment or until an initiated audit is resolved, whichever is longer. The records shall be made available upon request to the department, the Ohio department of Medicaid, the centers for Medicare and Medicaid services, and/or the auditor of state. Providers who fail to produce the records requested within thirty calendar days following the request shall be subject to denial, suspension, or revocation of certification and/or loss of their Medicaid provider agreement.
Disclaimer: These are not official documents, and there is no requirement that providers use these particular documents, nor is there any guarantee that this form will be in compliance with later rules. It remains the responsibility of the provider to be familiar with all applicable rules, including those covering service delivery and documentation. Use of these forms for documentation is not a guarantee of payment, and services must be provided before claims are submitted for reimbursement.
