Common questions

How do I verify a healthcare license in Pennsylvania?
Verify with the Pennsylvania board that issued the license. This directory lists 3 Pennsylvania licensing lookups, including Pennsylvania Bureau of Professional and Occupational Affairs , Pennsylvania Certification Board, and Pennsylvania Nurse Aide Registry. Pick the board for the provider's profession; each entry links to the board's own verification page.
Does Pennsylvania publish a Medicaid exclusion list?
Yes. Pennsylvania Department of Human Services 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 Pennsylvania require a separate controlled substance registration?
This directory does not list a separate Pennsylvania 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 Pennsylvania Medicaid?
Pennsylvania PROMISE is the state's provider enrollment portal. Medicaid enrollment is separate from commercial payer enrollment and from Medicare enrollment through PECOS.
