Provider Enrollment
Provider enrollment training is designed for providers at various stages of the initial enrollment process with Health First Colorado. It provides an overview of the program and guidance on the provider application process, including enrollment types, common errors and enrollment with other entities (e.g., DentaQuest, Regional Accountable Entities [RAEs], Health First Colorado vendors). It also provides information on next steps after enrollment.
Beginner Billing Training
The Department offers two beginner billing trainings: professional claims (CMS 1500) and institutional claims (UB-04).
Providers who are not sure which beginner billing training is the most appropriate for their provider type are encouraged to click on the link for "Which Beginner Billing Training Do I Need?"
The beginner billing training sessions provide a high-level overview of member eligibility, claim submission, prior authorizations, Department’s website navigation, Provider Web Portal use and more.
Intermediate Billing Training
Intermediate Billing training covers claims processing and remittance advice via the Provider Web Portal and batch, secondary billing with commercial insurance and Medicare, attachment requirements, timely filing, suspended claims, adjustments and voids, reconsiderations and resubmissions and more. This training is a general training for all provider types.
Provider-Specific Training
Provider-specific trainings cover topics unique to providers.
Please note that these sessions offer guidance for Health First Colorado only. Providers are encouraged to contact the Regional Accountable Entities (RAEs), Child Health Plan Plus (CHP+) and Medicare for enrollment and billing training specific to those organizations. Training for the new Care and Case Management (CCM) system also is not covered in these training sessions. CCM-specific training and resources can be found on the Care and Case Management System web page.
Refer to the Provider Web Portal Quick Guides located on the Quick Guides web page for more training materials on navigating the Provider Web Portal.
