Common questions
- How do I verify a healthcare license in Minnesota?
- Verify with the Minnesota board that issued the license. This directory lists 14 Minnesota licensing lookups, including Minnesota Board of Behavioral Health & Therapy, Minnesota Board of Chiropractic Examiners, and Minnesota Board of Dentistry. Pick the board for the provider's profession; each entry links to the board's own verification page.
- Does Minnesota publish a Medicaid exclusion list?
- Yes. Minnesota 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 Minnesota require a separate controlled substance registration?
- This directory does not list a separate Minnesota controlled substance registration lookup. Prescribers there operate under the federal DEA registration; confirm current requirements with the state board of pharmacy.
- Where do providers enroll in Minnesota Medicaid?
- Minnesota Health Care Programs is the state's provider enrollment portal. Medicaid enrollment is separate from commercial payer enrollment and from Medicare enrollment through PECOS.
