2100 Medicaid Contract

Revision 06-2; Effective December 12, 2006  

 

Hospice providers must apply to DADS to participate as a Medicaid hospice provider.

The Medicaid contract is considered an open-ended contract.

The same legal business entity that applied for the Medicare hospice certification applies for Medicaid contracts. DADS Community Services Contracts will enter into a contract with the provider upon completion of the application. Providers must meet the requirements specified in 40 Texas Administrative Code (TAC), Chapter 49, Contracting for Community Care Services, and 40 TAC, Chapter 30, Medicaid Hospice Program.
