ICA Toolkit for Adult Long-Term Care Provider Enrollment

All providers and vendors of home and community-based services under an adult long-term care (LTC) waiver program must enroll with Wisconsin Medicaid through the ForwardHealth Portal by January 1, 2026. IRIS consultant agencies (ICAs) and IRIS consultants are key partners to communicate this new requirement to IRIS participants so they are empowered to talk with their providers and vendors about it.

We need your help. IRIS consultants must talk with IRIS participants about this new enrollment process during their in-person visits. As an IRIS consultant, DHS is requiring you to use the following resources to talk with participants and give them materials to share with their providers and vendors.
