Provider Network Development
Medicare Advantage & D-SNP
For MA plans, D-SNPs, and new entrants

Your MA network has a filing date. It doesn't move.

A new plan year, a service-area expansion, or a D-SNP standing up — the network has to clear CMS adequacy on the first submission, and every week of contracting slippage comes out of the runway.

A provider network build mapped out on a whiteboard — workstreams, timeline, and success metrics.
Sound familiar?
  • HSD tables come back short in a handful of stubborn counties
  • Specialty and behavioral health gaps you can't recruit out of quickly
  • Credentialing running past the go-live date
  • D-SNP integration requirements landing on top of everything else
What we take off your plate
Adequacy modeling to CMS criteria
Time-and-distance and minimum-provider analysis by county type, before you file.
Targeted recruitment & contracting
The specific providers that close your gaps — outreach through countersignature.
Credentialing on the critical path
PSV and committee cadence sequenced so signed providers are payable at launch.
HSD tables & exception requests
Submission-ready tables, plus defensible justifications where the market can't supply.
A simple plan
1
Diagnose
Two weeks to a gap map and an honest read on the filing date.
2
Build
Contracting and credentialing in parallel against a live tracker.
3
Hand back
Go-live, then a running cadence your team owns.
What winning looks like
  • Adequacy met at first submission
  • Providers credentialed and payable on day one
  • A network that still passes after normal attrition
