Every state Medicaid managed-care plan across the Southeast requires a Certificate of Insurance (COI) on file within 30 days of contract effective date, and none will release first payment until coverage is verified. Standard minimum limits: $1M per claim / $3M aggregate on malpractice, $1M general liability, and workers’ comp per state statute.
Common Medicaid MCO payers by state: Mississippi (MississippiCAN, Magnolia), Alabama (VIVA, WellCare), Louisiana (LA Healthcare Connections, AmeriHealth Caritas), Florida (Sunshine, Simply, Molina), Tennessee (TennCare/BlueCare, Amerigroup), North Carolina (Healthy Blue, AmeriHealth Caritas NC), and Georgia (Peach State, CareSource, Amerigroup).
