Primary Care Providers (PCPs. Primary Care Provider (PCP) means an individual physician (M.D. or D.O.), certain physician group practice/clinic (Primary Care Clinics [PCCs]), or an advanced practice nurse (APN) as defined in ORC 4723.43 or advanced practice nurse group practice within an acceptable specialty, contracting with an MCP to provide services as specified in paragraph (B) of OAC rule 5101: 3-26-03.1. Acceptable specialty types for PCPs include family/general practice, internal medicine, pediatrics, and obstetrics/gynecology (OB/GYN). Acceptable PCCs include FQHCs, RHCs and the acceptable group practices/clinics specified by ODJFS. As part of their subcontract with an MCP, PCPs must stipulate the total Medicaid member capacity that they can ensure for that individual MCP. Each PCP must have the capacity and agree to serve at least 50 Medicaid members at each practice site in order to be approved by ODJFS as a PCP. The capacity-by-site requirement must be met for all ODJFS-approved PCPs. ODJFS reviews the capacity totals for each PCP to determine if they appear excessive. DJFS reserves the right to request clarification from an MCP for any PCP whose total stated capacity for all MCP networks added together exceeds 2000 Medicaid members (i.e., 1 FTE). ODJFS may allow up to an additional 750 member capacity for each nurse practitioner or physician’s assistant that is used to provide clinical support for a PCP. For PCPs contracting with more than one MCP, the MCP must ensure that the capacity figure stated by the PCP in their subcontract reflects only the capacity the PCP intends to provide for that one MCP. ODJFS utilizes each approved PCP’s capacity figure to determine if an MCP meets the provider panel requirements and this stated capacity figure does not prohibit a PCP from actually having a caseload that exceeds the capacity figure indicated in their subcontract. ODJFS expects that MCPs will need to utilize specialty physicians to serve as PCPs for some special needs members. In these situations it will not be necessary for the MCP to submit these specialists to the PVS database, or other system, as PCPs, however, they must be submitted to PVS, or other system, as the appropriate required provider type. Also, in some situations (e.g., continuity of care) a PCP may only want to serve a very small number of members for an MCP. In these situations it will not be necessary for the MCP to submit these PCPs to ODJFS for prior approval. These PCPs will not be included in the ODJFS P...
