Provider Auth Portal
GuidingCare
CCHP has launched a new Provider Authorization Portal through GuidingCare. No authorizations will be accepted in CareWeb and will need to be submitted in GuidingCare.
GuidingCare updates:
- Watch the training videos and read the how-to guides? We have many resources available to you here.
- On 5/3/24 we sent an update regarding our authorization portal incorrectly reading dates for services which has led to improper processing and denial of some claims. We continue to face challenges with these issues. Our team is actively working to correct this promptly and we will send an update when the issue has been resolved. As a reminder, you are still able to submit authorizations in the meantime and please do not appeal these claims as they will be reprocessed.
Thank you for your ongoing partnership in providing high quality care to our members!

Medicaid claim payments through InstaMed
We are making payments for Medicaid claims through InstaMed. To sign up to receive Electronic Fund Transfers (EFT) Medicaid payments and Electronic Remittance Advice please use the links below.
Providers are encouraged to use the online registration solution, however providers can also contact InstaMed’s network development team at 866-945-7990 to register.
Important information:
- Medicaid EFT Payments: EFT payments will temporarily indicate they are from Medica or Dean Health Plan. Please check the first claim on the remit to confirm it is a CCHP or Care4Kids (C4K) remit. The remits will only have CCHP or C4K member payments and will not be combined with Medica or Dean Health Plan members. In most cases a unique identifier is returned to a provider when submitting electronic claims. This unique identifier will be sent back on the remit and automatically post correctly with CCHP as the payer. If there is not a unique identifier it is recommended to check the first claim on the remit to confirm the file posted to the correct payer. Please contact CCHP Provider Services at 1-800-482-8010 with any questions regarding claim payments.
- Medicaid Paper Checks: Paper checks and paper remits received will temporarily indicate they are from Medica or Dean Health Plan. Please check the first claim on the remit to confirm it is a CCHP or Care4Kids (C4K) payment and remit. The remits will only list CCHP member payments and will not be combined with Medica or Dean Health Plan members. Please contact CCHP Provider Services at 1-800-482-8010 with any questions regarding claim payments.
We are working on removing the reference to Medica and Dean and replacing it with CCHP. We do not have a timeline for this change. We will provide updates as we learn more.
A Healthcare Network Committed to Caring
Chorus Community Health Plans (CCHP), an affiliate of Children’s Wisconsin, is an HMO dedicated to providing access to the highest quality health care and services to our members living in Wisconsin.
CCHP is a member of the Association for Community Affiliated Plans (ACAP), which is a national trade association representing more than 70 nonprofit safety net health plans in 28 states. ACAP’s mission is to represent and strengthen not-for-profit, safety-net health plans as they work in their communities to improve the health and well-being of vulnerable populations.
Recredentialing Notice for Wisconsin Health Insurance Providers
To assist practitioners with the challenges to timeliness during COVID, CCHP had extended the recredentialing cycle by two months, going from 36 months to 38 months during the Public Health Emergency (PHE). With the PHE set to expire in May 2023, CCHP will return to the 36 month cycle as designated by law, therefore any practitioner who does not submit their completed recredentialing application within the cycle will be terminated.
APNP – Collaborative Agreement
In compliance with the executive order during the Public Health Emergency, CCHP had waived the collaborative agreement requirement for APNPs. With the PHE set to expire in May 2023, CCHP will once again require a Collaborative Agreement per Wisconsin State law. APNP’s without a collaborative agreement by May 18, 2023 will receive a summary suspension of their network privileges.
