What’s the difference between DHS and MDH services?
DHS oversees Minnesota Health Care Programs (MHCP) enrollment, 245D HCBS, EIDBI, ARMHS, CFSS, and waiver programs. MDH oversees Comprehensive Home Care licensure and Integrated Licensure / HCBS Designation. Many providers operate under both — we work across them.
My DHS application is open / stalled / returned. Can you help finish it?
Yes. Open DHS Application Completion Support is one of our highest-volume engagements. We review what’s missing, organize the response, and support submission within deadline windows.
I just received an RFMI letter. What do I do?
RFMI letters have hard deadlines. Don’t wait. Start an inquiry and tell us the date on the notice — we’ll move quickly to review the notice, identify missing items, and organize a complete response.
Do you help with MDH home care licensure?
Yes — Comprehensive Home Care Licensure Support and Integrated Licensure / HCBS Designation Support are both core services. We work first-time applicants and providers cleaning up open MDH applications.
I’m starting a new healthcare business. Where do I begin?
Foundational filings first — entity formation, EIN, ownership records, DBA if needed — sequenced before licensure and enrollment work. Our Business Startup Support lane is built exactly for this.
Are you licensed attorneys?
No. Integrus Group is a healthcare consulting firm. We do not provide legal advice or representation. For legal questions, we’ll recommend you consult a licensed Minnesota attorney.
