Effective July 1, 2026

Starting July 1, 2026, both new and existing Indiana home health agencies enrolled in IHCP (provider type 05) will be required to also be enrolled and recognized as Medicare providers.

Why It Matters

This new mandate elevates standards and helps ensure uniform quality and compliance across the state. For home health agencies, meeting this requirement will be essential to continue providing services under IHCP.

By staying ahead of this change, your organization can:

  • Avoid potential disruption in reimbursement
