Medicaid Provider Manual

The Medicaid Provider Manual, created by the Michigan Department of Health and Human Services (MDHHS), provides guidance (billing, reimbursement, policies) for all providers that are implementing the Medicaid School Services Program. The manual is updated quarterly and the latest changes are color-highlighted and dated. There are three dedicated chapters to the Medicaid School Services Program (SSP):

  • The School Services Program portion of the chapter outlines the general requirements and direct services for the program.
  • The School Services Program Administrative Outreach Program Claims Development portion of the chapter outlines the program's administrative outreach requirements.
  • The School Services Program Random Moment Time Study (RMTS) portion of the chapter focuses on the RMTS requirements for the program.
