referring, prescribing, or provision of services to MassHealth members within the scope of his or her

D. to order, refer, prescribe, or provide services to eligible members without regard to religion, race, color,

regulations at 45 CFR Part 84), and without regard to age in compliance with Section 6102 of the Age
Discrimination Act of 1975 (42 U.S.C.§6101 et seq. and its implementing regulations at 45 CFR Part

these records for at least six years, or for such a length of time as may be dictated by the generally
accepted standards for recordkeeping within the applicable provider type, whichever period is longer;
F. to furnish MassHealth, the United States Secretary of Health and Human Services, the Attorney
General’s Medicaid Fraud Division, the State Auditor, and any other state and federal agency to

records, about any services that the nonbilling provider orders, refers, prescribes, or provides to
MassHealth members;
G. to comply with the federal disclosure requirements specied in 42 CFR Part 455, Subpart B;
H. to furnish to MassHealth the nonbilling provider’s national provider identier (NPI), and include such
NPI on all orders, referrals, and prescriptions for MassHealth members;
I. to permit the federal Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services and the MassHealth agency, and their
agents and designated contractors, to conduct unannounced onsite inspections of any and all provider
locations for the limited purpose of investigating suspected fraud or abuse related to MassHealth; and

PE-NBP (Rev. 09/18) PROVIDER APPLICATION: Nonbilling Provider
APPLICATION TRACKING NUMBER (ATN)
Please ensure that all sections of this application are completed before submission.
CONTACT INFORMATION FOR INDIVIDUAL COMPLETING THIS APPLICATION (MassHealth may contact you if there are questions about this application.)
Name Tel. #
Email
This form is used to enroll providers who do not submit claims to or receive payment from MassHealth, but whose National
Provider Identifier (NPI) is included on claims submitted by billing providers.
All providers whose NPI must be included on claims due to any state or federal requirement, such as the ordering and
referring requirement referenced below, HIPAA 5010, or other requirements; and providers whose NPI is included on a claim
by a billing provider for other reasons must be enrolled with MassHealth at least as a nonbilling provider.
For example, if MassHealth requires a service to be ordered, referred, or prescribed by any of the provider types listed in
Section 1 of this form, then federal law requires that:
1. the ordering, referring, or prescribing provider’s NPI must be included on the billing provider’s claim; and
2. the ordering, referring, or prescribing provider be enrolled with MassHealth at least as a nonbilling provider.
This requirement applies to independent providers as well as facility-based providers. In addition, when a clinician not listed
in Section 1 below orders or refers a service, then the NPI of a provider listed in Section 1, such as the supervising physician’s
NPI, must be included on the claim. In that situation, the physician would also need to enroll as a nonbilling provider.
Note, however, that this form should not be used for providers who work in a group practice, since those providers must be
fully enrolled with MassHealth.
Please also note that there is also a separate nonbilling provider application for pharmacists who are authorized to prescribe.
Please call MassHealth Customer Service (CSC) at the number listed below to request the pharmacist application if you
qualify as a pharmacist who is authorized to prescribe.
Providers enrolled in MassHealth through this form are not permitted to submit claims to or receive payment from
MassHealth. Providers who are in a category that MassHealth recognizes as billing providers, and who wish to enroll in
MassHealth as a billing provider, should contact MassHealth Customer Service at 1-800-841-2900 to request an enrollment
packet.
You should have already obtained an individual NPI from an NPI Enumerator. You should ensure that the Primary Practice
Address registered with the NPI Enumerator reflects the street address entered in the Primary Service Location portion of this
application associated with the organization with which you are affiliated. If you are authorized to prescribe medications,
you are required to enter a Primary Taxonomy Code that indicates that you have the appropriate clinical discipline to write a
prescription. Additionally, prescribers writing prescriptions for CII–CV medications are required to enter a DEA number.
If you are not fully licensed, and have limited license status, please attach a copy of your limited license to your application.
Please complete, sign, and return this form and the Nonbilling Provider Contract by mail to the MassHealth Customer Service
Center (CSC), Attn: Provider Enrollment, P.O. Box 121205, Boston, MA 02112-1205. You can address questions about the form
to CSC. Dentists should submit the form and signed contract by mail to DentaQuest at MassHealth Dental Program, Attn:
Provider Enrollment and Credentialing, P.O. Box 2906, Milwaukee, WI 53201-2906. All information is subject to audit.
