How to meet disclosure requirements with TennCare’s registration process

All healthcare providers — contracted and noncontracted — are required to adhere to federal regulations related to information disclosure. Tax‑reporting provider entities that bill and/or receive TennCare funds through their work with Wellpoint must regularly submit disclosures following the guidelines set forth by 42 CFR Part 455, subpart B, and TennCare, which include:

  • At the time of initial contracting
  • During contract renewal
  • Anytime there is a change to any of the information on the disclosure form
  • Within 35 days of any change in ownership of the disclosing entity
  • At least once every three years
  • Anytime upon request

To ensure compliance, please regularly submit your required disclosures through the provider registration process with TennCare according to the specified guidelines.
