Reminder - LTSS Enrollment Deadline Extended to October 31, 2018

Attention:  Long Term Services and Supports Providers (LTSS) Subject:  Reminder - Enrollment Deadline Extended to October 31, 2018   This is a reminder that the enrollment deadline for Long Term Support Services (LTSS) providers serving MCO members is quickly approaching. Long Term Support Services (LTSS) providers serving MCO members are required to enroll through the Medicaid MCO LTSS provider enrollment process.   To allow sufficient time for application processing, MCO LTSS providers are strongly advised to submit applications as soon as possible.   An MCO LTSS Provider is any provider who provides LTSS services under a specific National Provider Identifier (NPI) and taxonomy combination through Medicaid Managed Care, but does not have an active Texas Provider Identifier (TPI) through TMHP, an Atypical Provider Identifier (API) through this process, or an enrollment through the Department of Aging and Disability Services (DADS) (Legacy).   MCO LTSS providers may obtain an application by submitting a request to MCO_LTSS_Provider_Re-Enrollment@hhsc.state.tx.us. The request must include the provider's business name, tax identification number, NPI, and taxonomy code. Providers that have completed enrollment and are receiving denials due to non-enrollment should follow the respective MCO’s claims and appeals process or contact the MCO.   Additional information may be found at HHSC’s website.   For more information, call the TMHP Contact Center at 1-800-925-9126.
