2. Contracting with the OhioRISE Plan

Providers interested in contracting with Aetna, the OhioRISE plan, to provide behavioral health services to children and youth enrolled in the OhioRISE program are encouraged to contact Aetna Better Health of Ohio. Providers can contact Aetna via the Provider Relations contact information listed below.

3. Contracting with the SPBM Vendor, Gainwell Technologies

Pharmacies must be enrolled with ODM to contract with the SPBM vendor, Gainwell Technologies. Pharmacies can enroll at any time if they are not already enrolled.

The pharmacy will then need to contract with Gainwell. All pharmacies will have to contract with Gainwell to provide pharmacy services for Medicaid managed care members. For pharmacy contracting questions, Gainwell may be reached by email at OH_MCD_PBM_network@gainwelltechnologies.com or by phone at (833) 491-0364.
