If the issue involves a Medicaid Managed Care Plan, you should use the plan’s provider complaint process prior to submitting a complaint to the Agency. All plans have a provider complaint system to allow providers to dispute plan policies, procedures, or any aspect of a plan’s administrative functions, including proposed actions, claims/billing disputes, and service authorizations. Plans must maintain a complete and accurate record of all complaints and share this information with Agency. Plan contact information is available online at

When submitting your complaint online, you also have the option of attaching any related documents.
