Effective Sunday, July 1, all pharmacies participating in the TennCare or CoverKids pharmacy program must have a valid TennCare issued Medicaid ID. Failure to obtain a valid Medicaid ID may result in rejected claims and disqualification as a provider for these networks. This requirement applies to MagellanRX and Express Scripts and any subsequent pharmacy benefits manager for TennCare or CoverKids. Pharmacies that need a Medicaid ID are required to register through the TennCare electronic registration portal.
