SoonerCare Provider Education Specialists

Oklahoma SoonerCare has a team of Provider Education Specialists with in-depth knowledge of SoonerCare billing requirements and claim processing procedures. Training is offered on billing through the Provider Portal and use of the Eligibility Verification System (EVS) and Electronic Data Interchange (EDI). In addition to providing training through on-site visits and workshops, Provider Education Specialists also assist providers with contract renewals through Electronic Provider Enrollment.

The main focus of a Provider Education Specialist is:

  • Training newly enrolled providers and billers on the SoonerCare Provider Portal.
  • Establishing and maintaining relationships with contracted providers to insure correct claim adjudication and resolution.
  • Conducting bi-annual provider workshops.
