Written-only billing-company qualification

Become a Medicaid billing partner for independent doulas

Apply to support Washington ProviderOne or Michigan fee-for-service Medicaid billing. Qualified billing agents and clearinghouses only. No calls or uploads. Do not enter patient or claim information.

One-state companies may qualify.
No phone call or application fee.
No patient or claim data enters DoulaPaid.

Eligible billing services

Applications are limited to Washington ProviderOne and Michigan CHAMPS fee-for-service billing. Submitting does not approve your company or promise referrals.

Washington HCA / ProviderOne

The exact applicant entity must be able to document the HCA billing-agent or clearinghouse path, accepted trading-partner terms, and tested 837 Professional capability. Under the current birth-doula guide, these claims go to HCA through ProviderOne even when the member is enrolled in an HCA-contracted MCO.

Michigan straight Medicaid / CHAMPS

The exact applicant entity must be approved as a CHAMPS billing agent, complete applicable B2B/837P testing, support provider association, and keep MDHHS data access and storage within the United States. Every Medicaid Health Plan is excluded.

Applications are open. DoulaPaid verifies legal, enrollment, electronic-claim, security, exclusion, insurance, agreement, and payment requirements before approving work.

What qualified companies must be ready to prove

If shortlisted, you will provide supporting documents through a secure business channel. Do not upload or email them to DoulaPaid.

State authority

Exact legal-entity enrollment, billing-agent or clearinghouse status, provider association, and tested 837P authority for each requested lane.

HIPAA operations

Direct provider agreements and BAAs, a documented security program, U.S.-only Michigan operations, incident response, and controlled subprocessors.

Compliance and risk

Current exclusion screening, professional and cyber coverage, accurate claims controls, provider-owned reimbursement, and counsel-approved fixed terms.

Apply without a call

Answer the qualification questions and confirm the company email. Do not enter credentials, documents, patient information, or claim information.

Company qualification information only.

Do not enter patient, claim, banking, credential, document, screenshot, or portal information.

No fee to apply. Applying does not promise approval, referrals, volume, exclusivity, or a contract.

What happens after confirmation

DoulaPaid verifies each requirement before approving work.

  1. 1. DoulaPaid reviews the company’s answers.
  2. 2. Shortlisted companies receive a written request for supporting documents through a secure business channel.
  3. 3. DoulaPaid records whether each requirement is met but does not store the supporting files.
  4. 4. Approved companies receive written notice. Work begins only after separate provider consent.

Keep records in the billing company’s secure system

The billing company receives patient and claim information directly from the provider under its own agreement. DoulaPaid does not receive it.

Do not email supporting documents, credentials, patient information, claims, portal screenshots, bank information, or attachments to DoulaPaid. If selected, the billing company must receive PHI directly from the provider through its own approved system. DoulaPaid receives none of it.

Common questions

Can a company apply for only one state?

Yes. Washington and Michigan are qualified as separate billing routes. A company may apply for one or both, and approval for one never implies approval for the other.

Is a phone call required?

No. Apply, answer follow-up questions, and complete contracting in writing.

Does DoulaPaid provide patient or claim data?

No. DoulaPaid does not accept patient or claim information. A selected billing company would contract directly with each provider and receive necessary information in its own approved system.

Does applying guarantee clients or revenue?

No. This is not a paid-lead marketplace, job listing, white-label subcontract, exclusivity offer, or guarantee of referrals, claim volume, collections, or compensation.

Can a percentage-of-collections company apply?

The pilot requires willingness to use fixed written terms that are independent of claim value, collections, reimbursement, referral volume, or introductions. Final compensation must be approved by healthcare counsel.
