Appealing Credentialing Decisions

Providers have the right to appeal credentialing determinations with which they disagree.

Client requirements and applicable federal and state laws may impact the appeals process; therefore, the process for appealing credentialing determinations is outlined in the credentialing notification letter.

To comply with this policy, your responsibility is to:

  • Follow the instructions outlined in the ineligibility letter if you wish to appeal an ineligibility determination

Magellan's responsibility is to:

  • Notify you in a timely manner of the determination that you do not meet Magellan’s credentialing criteria and therefore will not be included in the provider network
  • Consider any appeals submitted in accordance with the instructions outlined in the ineligibility notification letter, subject to applicable state law
