Three steps to enrolled.
Your MHCP DMEPOS enrollment is waiting on this bond. Here is the entire process — no broker phone tag:
Apply once, online

Approved
Most are approved as soon as you apply. One soft credit pull, never a hard inquiry, and it never affects your score. If it needs a second look, one to two business days at most.

What it is and who needs it.
What the bond actually guarantees
Minnesota's Department of Human Services conditions DMEPOS supplier enrollment in Minnesota Health Care Programs on a surety bond. The $100,000 amount is the higher-revenue tier — it applies once your prior-year MHCP revenue exceeds $300,000. The bond is a program-integrity guarantee that you bill MHCP honestly and follow the program rules.
It's a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the State of Minnesota (the obligee). If a supplier submits improper claims, fails to repay an overpayment, or otherwise violates the program rules, the state can recover against the bond.
It is not insurance for you — if the surety pays a claim, you repay the surety. If your MHCP revenue is at or below $300,000, the lower $50,000 bond applies instead, which we also write.

Claims, renewal, filing, and what sets the price.
If a claim is made
A claim comes from the party the bond protects, the obligee named on the form, when the duty the bond guarantees is not met.
The surety investigates and pays a valid claim, up to the $100,000 bond amount. You then repay the surety: a surety bond is a guarantee of your performance, not insurance for you.
Renewal and term
The premium covers a one-year term from the effective date you choose; a longer term is the same price per year, chosen at checkout.
Renew before the expiry date to keep the bond in force: the license, permit or contract it backs expects continuous coverage.
How to file it
E-sign & file with DHS. Pay online and receive the executed bond ready to file on the DHS surety bond form with your MHCP DMEPOS enrollment. Wet-ink originals mailed whenever DHS insists.
What sets the price
The premium is fixed at $2,000 at the $100,000 amount for every applicant: the carrier’s rate book prices this bond by the form, not by your credit or your business profile.
One soft credit pull, never a hard inquiry, and it never affects your score.
