Increase in NCTracks Recredentialing Period

The N.C. Division of Medical Assistance has changed the length of time required before a provider must recredential in NCTracks from 3 years to 5 years, effective February 18, 2015.

NCTracks is adding 2 years to the due dates for recredentialing of existing providers. So if your current due date for recredentialing is 10/1/2015, your new due date will be 10/1/2017. For new providers who enroll in NCTracks, the due date for recredentialing will automatically be set to 5 years.

Providers who are currently recredentialing will complete the process already underway and then the due date for their next recredentialing will be set to 5 years from the approval date.

Providers who have received a letter notifying them that recredentialing is due soon, but have not yet started the recredentialing process, should disregard the letter. Your recredentialing due date will be extended for two more years.

Note: Recredentialing applies to providers who are enrolled for an indefinite period of time. It does not apply to any time-limited enrolled providers such as Out-of-State (OOS) providers. OOS providers must continue to complete the enrollment process every 365 days.
