CAQH Set-up and Re-attestation

The Council for Affordable Quality Healthcare (CAQH) is a non‑profit organization created by major U.S. health plans to streamline administrative processes in healthcare and reduce costs. It serves as a central hub for provider data, credentialing, and industry operating rules. CAQH maintains national provider data used for credentialing, directory management, and payer operations. MEDEX can help establish your initial CAQH if you don’t have one setup and/or can provide required attestations every 120 days.

Most providers must re‑attest every 120 days in CAQH ProView to confirm that their profile information is accurate and up to date. This is the standard requirement used by the majority of health plans.

  • Missing the re-attestation deadline can cause:
    • Credentialing delays
    • Claim denials
    • Network termination risk
    • Forced recredentialing

Medicare Revalidation

Medicare revalidation is the process where providers and suppliers must renew and confirm their Medicare enrollment information to keep their Medicare billing privileges active. CMS requires this to ensure that all provider data on file is current, accurate, and compliant.

You must:

  • Review your Medicare enrollment record
  • Update any outdated information
  • Upload supporting documents
  • Electronically sign and submit the revalidation through PECOS, the Medicare enrollment system
  • Most providers revalidate every 5 years
  • CMS may request off‑cycle revalidations at any time. CMS posts due dates 7 months in advance, and MACs send notices 3–4 months before the deadline.

Medicaid Revalidation

Medicaid revalidation, also called Medicaid renewal, redetermination, or recertification—is the process where the state Medicaid agency reconfirms that a beneficiary or provider is still eligible to participate in Medicaid.

Medicaid Revalidation for Providers (General Overview):

  • Providers must revalidate every 5 years (similar to Medicare).
  • DMEPOS suppliers revalidate every 3 years.
  • States may impose additional requirements.
  • Revalidation is done through the state’s Medicaid portal (e.g., PRISM in Utah or PAVE in CA).

If you don’t Re‑attest for Medicare and Medicaid :

CMS is very strict about this. If you miss your revalidation:

Medicare may hold your payments
