Physicians are reminded that the California Department of Health Care Services has started winding down the provider enrollment flexibilities authorized under COVID-19 State of Emergency, which ended on February 28, 2028. Medi-Cal providers who were temporarily and provisionally enrolled as Medi-Cal providers who wish to remain enrolled must submit a complete application and meet all program requirements if they would like to continue treating Medi-Cal patients.

Providers will have until June 27, 2023 (90 days from the end of the waiver period), to submit an application via the Medi-Cal Provider Application and Validation for Enrollment (PAVE) portal. Providers who have not submitted an application by that date, will have their temporary enrollment deactivated effective June 28, 2023.
