Common questions

How do I verify a healthcare license in North Carolina?
Verify with the North Carolina board that issued the license. This directory lists 19 North Carolina licensing lookups, including North Carolina Board of Athletic Trainers, North Carolina Board of Dental Examiners, and North Carolina Board of Dietetics/Nutrition. Pick the board for the provider's profession; each entry links to the board's own verification page.
Does North Carolina publish a Medicaid exclusion list?
Yes. North Carolina Medicaid Division of Health Benefits Medicaid Exclusions 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 North Carolina require a separate controlled substance registration?
Yes. North Carolina Controlled Substance Lookup verifies the state registration, which is required in addition to a federal DEA registration to prescribe controlled substances in North Carolina.
Where do providers enroll in North Carolina Medicaid?
North Carolina Medicaid is the state's provider enrollment portal. Medicaid enrollment is separate from commercial payer enrollment and from Medicare enrollment through PECOS.
