Minnesota's disability and addiction recovery service providers rely on payments from Medicaid programs. But many providers are now scrambling to figure out what's next after they received notice on Monday that they were removed from high-risk Medicaid programs.
This comes after the state Department of Human Services revalidated 5,000 providers. DHS was required to do so as part of the Trump administration’s campaign to address fraud in Minnesota.
