Attention Primary Care Plus (PCPlus) Practices: PCPlus Application and Recertification Opening – Required for all PCPlus Practices

We are pleased to announce that the PCPlus application period is now open! The application is open until Friday, May 2, 2025. 

PCPlus is a MaineCare primary care model that gives Primary Care Providers (PCPs) greater flexibility and incentives to meet MaineCare members’ healthcare needs by transitioning away from a volume-based (fee-for-service) payment system toward population-based payments tied to cost and quality-related outcomes. Participation in PCPlus is voluntary for PCPs, and PCPs must apply to participate.    

Two Types of PCPlus Aplications   

Both types of applications must be submitted at the service location-level. Organizations with multiple locations must submit a separate application for each service location.

  1. PCPlus Recertification Application - This abbreviated application is for existing PCPlus practices to recertify as a PCPlus practice. This application MUST be completed by ALL PCPlus enrolled practices in order to continue as a PCPlus enrolled practice. There will also be an option for PCPlus practices to change tiers based on changes to their practice characteristics. Recertification is required for all current PCPlus practices whether or not the practice believes their tier level is changing. A PDF version of the application is available.   
  2. Full PCPlus Application – This application is for practices who are not currently enrolled in PCPlus and are seeking to become a PCPlus practice. The annual enrollment start date is July 1, 2025. A PDF version of the application is available.
