EVV PSO 2024 Onboarding Schedule and Enrollment Available on TMHP EVV Proprietary Systems Webpage

Date: May 16, 2024

Attention: STAR Kids Providers/Consumer Directed Services employers, and FMSA Providers

Call to action: Texas Children’s Health Plan would like to inform program providers, financial management services agencies (FMSAs), and Consumer Direct Services (CDS) employers that the Texas Medicaid & Healthcare Partnership (TMHP) has published the Proprietary System Operator (PSO) 2024 Onboarding schedule to the EVV Proprietary Systems webpage.

HHSC is encouraging program providers and FMSAs who wish to become a PSO to submit a Proprietary System (PS) Request Form. The PS Request Form can be submitted at any time. Refer to the Accessing the EVV Portal for Program Providers and FMSAs job aid for more information.

Program providers and FMSAs who previously provided a PS Request Form and have confirmed with TMHP that they are still interested in becoming a PSO, then they are not required to submit an additional form. If the submitted PS Request Form is in a “Completed” status in the EVV Portal, they will be given the opportunity to onboard this calendar year (2024). Program providers and FMSAs should continue to check the status of their submitted PS Request Form in the portal.

Next step for Providers: Providers are encouraged to share this communication with their staff. Providers can email the TMHP EVV PSO for questions.

If you have any questions, please email Provider Relations at: providerrelations@texaschildrens.org.
