What to Know First

Enrollment type follows who owns the practice, who submits claims, who receives payment, and whether the provider only orders/refers/prescribes or renders services under an organization.

Practical Workflow

1. TL;DR decision table.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

• Treating old MPATH, MATH, ICAP, Passport, PCMT, or MTHCS references as interchangeable without checking the current Montana source.

• Assuming a portal login, provider enrollment, provider linking, claim route, or future affiliation is complete just because one related task was approved.

• Sharing owner credentials with a biller or staff member instead of using supported user access and offboarding controls.

• Skipping eligibility, authorization, provider-record, and remittance checks before treating the workflow as payer-ready.

Where Bomi Fits

Bomi can confirm the provider structure before submission so the approved record supports the way the practice actually bills.

For practice owners, the practical goal is simple: the provider record, portal users, eligibility workflow, authorization process, claim route, and remittance workflow should all match the way the practice actually operates.
