Reminder to complete the 2021 D-SNP Model of Care provider training

2021 PriorityMedicare D-SNP Model of Care provider training required through CMS

Providers play an integral role in the care teams that support our dual-eligible special needs members. That's why the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) requires us to make sure providers who are contracted with us to see PriorityMedicare patients are trained on our Model of Care. Our Model of Care is a quality improvement tool that ensures the unique needs of our D-SNP members are met and describes the processes and systems we use to coordinate their care.

Who needs to complete Model of Care training?

All providers who are part of the Priority Health Medicare Advantage network need to complete training because PriorityMedicare D-SNP uses the Priority Health Medicare network.

How to access training

Training can be completed using one of two options:

Option 1 (highly recommended): Providers can access Model of Care training as an on-demand webinar. It takes 15 minutes to complete and can be accessed here. Providers who register for the online training will automatically be attested for training, with no form required. If selecting this option, send the below link to your providers:

Option 2: We can supply the training deck to your group to be distributed in your preferred format. This option works best if an existing process is in place for other provider training obligations, like compliance training. If this option is selected, you will need to:

  • Distribute training to providers
  • Return the attached roster with providers who have received the training. Only the attached provider roster template will be accepted by our compliance team.

All training and attestations must be completed no later than Dec. 31, 2021.
