How long does the application process take?
Once IPEP has received your completed application, application fee payment, and all three references, your application will be forwarded to the Admissions Committee of IPEP for review. That committee will make a recommendation, based on the information you furnish, as to whether you meet the minimum qualifications to be admitted to either the QEP or the EPI examination process. From the date that your application is found to be complete it generally takes four to six weeks for the Admissions Committee to complete the review.
On average the entire application process can take about 45 days from the date the application is submitted to the Medicaid eligibility agency. The entire length of the application process is dependent on how quickly the member provides information to SSC, and how quickly the state Medicaid agency approves the application.
