Providers' Responsibilities
Providers are responsible for submitting a COMPLETE and ACCURATE agreement. Please comply with all the directions on the instructions page, including the submission of the mandatory appendices and attachments. Incomplete or inaccurate PPAs cannot be processed.
Providers who submit an incomplete PPA will receive a letter requesting the missing items required to complete processing.
If a provider does not respond timely to this request for additional information, the agreement will be rejected and returned. To reapply, the provider will need to start the process over and complete an entirely new PPA.
PPA Process
Existing Provider:
If you have an existing PPA with the Bureau of Family Health with an upcoming expiration date, you should receive a letter approximately three months prior to that date notifying you that your PPA is about to expire. To obtain a new PPA, please follow the steps listed below. Once the PPA forms are submitted correctly, you will receive a new PPA number and new effective and termination dates. If you have any questions about the process, please call 717-772-2762. The Bureau will only process invoices with dates of service that fall within the
effective and
termination dates of a fully executed agreement.
