Frequently Asked Questions

The FAQ covers getting started, licensing, Medicaid enrollment, compliance, pricing, and how engagements with WCG run. Common topics include:

• How long does it take to become a Medicaid waiver provider? Typical startup timelines run 90 days to 12 months depending on the state, the service line, and whether a license, certification, or enrollment-only pathway applies.
• Do I need a license before enrolling with Medicaid? In most states, yes for licensed service categories — the license or certification is a prerequisite to the Medicaid provider agreement. Some service types are enrollment-only.
• What is a 1915(c) waiver? A federal authority letting states cover home and community-based services for people who would otherwise need institutional care. Each state runs its own waivers with its own provider qualifications.
• What does WCG actually deliver? Applications, policy manuals, forms, training plans, compliance programs, and direct representation through the review — scoped per state and service.
