ATTENTION ALL PROVIDERS: Important Enrollment Requirement – Action Needed by January 1, 2026

Effective January 1, 2026, all providers must obtain a Medicaid ID number by enrolling with Wisconsin Medicaid through the ForwardHealth Portal.

Key Points:

  • Enrollment is required to continue providing services and receiving payment from Managed Care Organizations (MCOs) or IRIS (Include, Respect, I Self-Direct).
  • Some providers may need to enroll separately for each service location.

Providers who are not enrolled and do not have a Medicaid ID by the deadline will not be eligible to provide services or receive payment.

For more information, refer to details sent to you by DHS, or direct questions regarding enrollment to ForwardHealth Provider Services at 800-947-9627.
