Common questions
- How do I verify a healthcare license in Alabama?
- Verify with the Alabama board that issued the license. This directory lists 23 Alabama licensing lookups, including Alabama Behavior Analyst Licensure Board, Alabama Board of Chiropractic Examiners, and Alabama Board of Dental Examiners. Pick the board for the provider's profession; each entry links to the board's own verification page.
- Does Alabama publish a Medicaid exclusion list?
- Yes. Alabama Medicaid Exclusion List is the state list. Check it alongside the federal OIG LEIE and SAM.gov, since state exclusions are not always reflected in the federal lists.
- Does Alabama require a separate controlled substance registration?
- Yes. Alabama Controlled Substance Lookup verifies the state registration, which is required in addition to a federal DEA registration to prescribe controlled substances in Alabama.
- Where do providers enroll in Alabama Medicaid?
- Alabama Medicaid is the state's provider enrollment portal. Medicaid enrollment is separate from commercial payer enrollment and from Medicare enrollment through PECOS.
