From: jason.hughes@amerigroup.com  Hi Martin,     The provider is actually fully credentialed as of 07/06/2020 and you should be getting the approval letter soon, but the provider was considered in network as of The 05/29/2020 effective date is what we call a Provisional effective date.        If a provider is joining a group with an executed contract, Provisional Status allows for providers to bill as an in-network provider while the credentialing process is going on at the same time.  This allows providers to see members as in-network and be paid for services rendered.  Provisional effective dates are determined normally by the day we get the request.     Provisional effective dates can be issued contingent upon:     **Provider having an active TPI with TMHP  **Valid State license #
