Purpose and Introduction

This document describes the basics of navigating in the NMNMSTAR Vendor Registration module including profile settings, adding staff and licensure, adding services, adding comments, submitting, and reviewing the registration history.

General Information

  1. You must have your own unique email address to have an account.

  2. All activity done using an account is tracked and recorded in NMNMSTAR. Do not share your account information.

  4. Online videos, super-quick guides, and comprehensive user guides are available on Manuals and Guides. For questions that can’t be answered by the online resources or your primary/secondary contact or any issues you may encounter in NMSTAR, please email support@fallingcolors.com to create a support ticket.

Vendor Registration Process Overview

All Vendors wishing to provide non-Medicaid services for one of the State of New Mexico’s Behavioral Health Collaborative (BHC) Member Agency’s (ALTSD, BHC, BHSD, CYFD, DDC, DOH, ECECD, and HED) must complete and submit the online vendor registration documents

*Please note, initiating Vendor Registration does not guarantee funding through the BHC Member Agency in NMSTAR.

Steps

Process

1

Member Agency submits their approval for FC Support to onboard a new Vendor in the NMSTAR Application.

Member Agency will submit your organization’s basic contact info (Vendor Administrator and Signatory Authority) and approved Scope of Work (SOW) to support@fallingcolors.com and we will initiate the NMSTAR Vendor Onboarding process with your organization.

Note:  the designated Vendor Administrator is the person who will be completing the online Vendor registration.  Vendor billing and claims submission is a different process with distinct Administrative permission.  Vendors will need to register their appropriate billing staff separately.

2

FC Support creates NMSTAR profile and Vendor Administrator account for the provider to review and complete the profile.

The Vendor Administrator will be emailed login credentials with a Vendor Registration user manual.

3

Vendor Administrator completes all sections of registration including business profile, staff profiles, and business services then Submits Online Registration. 

Vendor Administrator notifies FC Support by email (support@fallingcolors.com) that completed registration has been submitted and is ready for approval.

Note: EFT will be added to Profile and Annual Attestation will be sent once NMSTAR profile is submitted and approved.

4

FC Support sends Vendor Signatory Authority required FCC Contracts and Member Agency SOW for review and signature in the SignEasy Application while Vendor Administrator completes NMSTAR Registration.

5

FC Support will conduct preliminary checks on Vendor NMSTAR Profile when submitted. 

  • If registration is complete and accurate, FC Support will approve the profile, configure EFT to initiate EFT Verification in STAR and send the required Annual Attestation from NMSTAR.

  • If registration is not complete or inaccurate, FC Support will contact Vendor Administrator by email to request the needed information to complete/correct their registration.

6

Once NMSTAR Profile is approved, Attestation, FCC Contracts and Member Agency SOW are signed FC Support will contact the Member Agency to let them know the Vendor is ready to receive their allocation in NM STAR.

7

FC Support allocates funds to NMSTAR providers once direction and approval is received from the Member Agency. FC Support configures the approved services per the Member Agency SOW and grants access to the funding in NMSTAR to approved NMSTAR users with the Vendor.

8

Your Member Agency Program Manager will provide you with their program billing requirements and offer training to you. FC Support will also be glad to assist and walk you through NMSTAR whenever assistance is needed - please reach out to support@fallingcolors.com anytime!
