Enrollment checklist
Use these steps before trying to bill Louisiana Medicaid doula services.
- Step 1Confirm the program path: Louisiana Medicaid doula services.
- Step 2Set up provider identifiers: Louisiana Medicaid provider ID.
- Step 3Check registry or certification: Individual doulas must have approved registration with the Louisiana Doula Registry Board and enroll as Louisiana Medicaid provider type DL specialty 1V; groups use specialty 1W.
- Step 4Open the billing portal or plan path: Louisiana Medicaid / lamedicaid.com.
- Step 5Before the first claim, connect setup to eligibility, visit notes, rates, and payer routing.
NPI and taxonomy check
Provider identifiers help the payer know who is billing; they do not replace the state enrollment path.
Check whether 374J00000X belongs on your doula provider record.
If Louisiana Medicaid doula services or a health plan asks for the doula taxonomy code, 374J00000X is the national doula taxonomy code. Still confirm certification, enrollment status, portal access, direct or group billing, and managed care contracting before billing.
