Magellan Health is a behavioral health network organization, acquired by Centene in 2022. In December 2025 Centene signed a definitive agreement to sell Magellan, and as of the spring 2026 filings the sale was still pending. Magellan continues to administer behavioral benefits for various plans and states while the transition completes.
Behavioral health routing: Whether your target plan routes behavioral health through Magellan or in house is state and product specific, and it is changing while the divestiture completes.
The stall to avoid: Confirm the behavioral counterparty for your specific state and plan before applying. A Magellan application filed for a state that has moved behavioral health in house goes nowhere.
From PayerReady's payer enrollment research, built from the payer's own provider manuals and enrollment pages. Payer processes change; when a fact is not published by the payer, we say so rather than guess.

Common questions about Magellan Health credentialing
How long does Magellan Health credentialing take?
Magellan Health credentialing typically takes 30–60 days from a complete submission to an approved effective date. Incomplete applications are the main cause of delay: a missing document or an unattested CAQH profile restarts the clock rather than pausing it.
Does Magellan Health require CAQH?
Yes. Magellan Health pulls provider data from CAQH ProView, so your profile must be complete, attested and shared with Magellan Health before the application can move. CAQH re-attestation runs on a 120-day cycle, and a lapsed attestation stalls both new enrollments and recredentialing.
Which states does Magellan Health operate in?
Magellan Health has credentialing operations in 51 states. 51 of those 51 currently show an open panel. Requirements are not uniform: local plan names, provider portals and state-specific conditions differ, which is what the state-by-state table above records.
