21st Century Cures Act
According to state and federal regulations, all providers who participate in a Medicaid Managed Care Organization (MCO) are required to register with the State of New Jersey under the 21st Century Cures Act.
Here is what this means for you:
- Compliance is mandatory.
- Providers who want to join our Horizon NJ Health networks must already be registered under the 21st Century Cures Act.
- Providers who are not registered under the 21st Century Cures Act may be terminated from our Horizon NJ Health networks.
- We confirm 21st Century Cures Act registration information with the State of New Jersey. Practitioners do not need to send us proof of their registration.
- Registering under the 21st Century Cures Act is an action you take with the State of New Jersey. Although this registration is required for providers to be considered for participation in our networks, it does NOT mean that you have applied to be credentialed in our networks.
Need to know how to submit a request to be credentialed in our networks? Please read the pages within the Join Our Networks tab.
