Following a request from TMA, Texas Medicaid & Healthcare Partnership will accept completed provider revalidation applications received by Sept. 24. Texas Medicaid has previously indicated it couldn't guarantee timely processing of applications received after June 17. The Texas Health and Human Services Commission says physicians and other providers must continue to respond to all application deficiencies in a timely manner to remain enrolled. Failure to reenroll could result in payment gaps or disenrollment.
If you participate in the Medicaid program and haven't submitted your application, do so immediately. The reenrollment requirement applies to you if you participate in Medicaid managed care, traditional fee-for-service Medicaid (each active Texas Provider Identifier suffix), the Texas Vendor Drug Program, and long-term care services administered through the Texas Department of Aging and Disability Services.
More Information
For acute care physicians reenrolling through the Texas Medicaid and Healthcare Partnership (TMHP):
If you need help, contact a TMHP provider enrollment representative at (800) 925-9126, option 3, or email Provider.Enrollment.Mailbox[at]tmhp[dot]com.
For ordering- and referring-only physicians: If your only relationship with Texas Medicaid involves ordering or referring services for Medicaid clients, you also must enroll with Texas Medicaid as a participating physician.
