About this bond

What it is and who needs it.

What the bond actually guarantees

Indiana enrolls Medicaid providers through the Indiana Health Coverage Programs (IHCP). Under IC 12-15-11-2.5, certain for-profit transportation providers — ambulatory, non-ambulatory, and taxi specialties — must file a surety bond to be eligible to enroll, revalidate, or report a change of ownership.

The bond is a guarantee to the state, not insurance for you. By statute, the surety is liable for a duplicate, erroneous, or false Medicaid claim the state paid, and must pay the office within 30 days of written notice. If the surety pays, you repay the surety.

The statutory minimum is $50,000 and the term is three years. Some providers — such as 501(c)(3) nonprofits and certain hospital- or pharmacy-controlled providers — are exempt under IC 12-15-11-2.5(b); confirm your specialty code and exemption status before you buy.

IC 12-15-11-2.5Indiana Code 12-15-11-2.5 conditions enrollment of certain for-profit Medicaid transportation providers on a surety bond of at least $50,000 for a three-year term, under which the surety is liable for duplicate, erroneous, or false claims the state paid. Specific specialty codes are covered and several provider types (including 501(c)(3) nonprofits) are exempt — verify your status against the IHCP surety bond requirements before applying.

FAQ

Common questions.

How much is the Indiana Medicaid transportation bond?Pricing is 2% of your bond amount, $100 minimum. The statutory floor is $50,000; enter your amount and apply to see your exact price.
Do I pay the $50,000?No. You pay the 2% premium ($100 minimum). The $50,000 is the surety's maximum liability to the state for duplicate, erroneous, or false claims — it is not a deposit, and nobody holds your money.
Why does Indiana require it?Under IC 12-15-11-2.5, the bond protects the Medicaid program: if the state pays a duplicate, erroneous, or false claim, the surety must reimburse the office within 30 days of written notice. It guards public funds against billing abuse by transportation providers.
Am I exempt?Possibly. IC 12-15-11-2.5(b) exempts certain providers, including 501(c)(3) nonprofits and some hospital- or pharmacy-controlled providers. Check your specialty code against the IHCP surety bond requirements — or send it to us and we will help you confirm before you buy.
Is there a credit check?Not on this bond — the application has no credit section. The executed three-year bond issues on payment.
