2.18.2025 Medicaid Sanction Look-back Period The 2025 credentialing standards for Ongoing Monitoring and Interventions (e.g., CR 5, Element A, factor 1 in 2025 HPA) require organizations to obtain sanction information from both the state Medicaid agency and one of the additional listed sources. Will the look-back period be adjusted?

No. NCQA will not adjust the look-back period. For verifications conducted before July 1, 2025, the organization or its delegate(s) can obtain information from any source in the factor requirement. Verifications conducted on or after July 1, 2025, must include the state Medicaid agency and one of the other listed sources.

This applies to:
CRPN: CRA 4, Element B, factor 2; CRC 12, Element B, factor 1.
