2024 NC Medicaid Provider Experience Survey Extended to June 30
Participation encouraged for practices and organizations that provide primary care and Ob/Gyn services

Participation in this survey is vital to the understanding how primary care and Ob/Gyn providers experience, and are satisfied with, North Carolina’s Medicaid program and with each PHP. This survey aids in identifying areas for improvement with the intention of bettering PHP relationships with providers and reducing the administrative burdens of contracting with PHPs.

All practices and organizations that provide primary care and Ob/Gyn services should have received an email, in addition to a physical mail notification, inviting them to participate in the survey in April or May of this year. For practices employed by a larger organization (e.g., UNC or Duke practices), the invitation would have gone to the organization’s central office. The survey will remain open until June 30, 2024.

Practices and organizations who have not received an invitation to participate or who no longer have the invitation, can email csrl@unc.edu and indicate you would like to complete the Medicaid Survey. In your request email, please provide your practice name, practice address and practice email.
