Does Alaska border another state for billing purposes?

No. Alaska has no land border. Medicare still goes to Noridian Jurisdiction F, which also covers Washington and Oregon.

Can an Alaska Medicaid claim be sent to Washington Apple Health?

No. Alaska Medicaid is a separate program and a separate enrollment.

The fee is a percentage of net collections. The written rate follows volume, specialty, and how much of the cycle you hand over. There is no setup fee, and the agreement is month to month. The state is not a surcharge. How pricing is set.
