Procedure
When to Prepare
The notice is prepopulated and automatically generated out of the Texas Integrated Eligibility Redesign System (TIERS) on the first of every month and mailed directly to the individual. In situations where the individual has lost Form H0051 and/or the envelope, Medicaid for the Elderly and People with Disabilities (MEPD) staff with TIERS access will print Form H0051 from Correspondence, View History Corres, on the left navigation bar. MEPD staff may mail Form H0051 or give it directly to the individual, along with a postage-paid envelope, if the individual is in the office. If the individual requests that Form H0051 be mailed, enclose a prepaid envelope. Postage-paid envelopes will be available in all field offices.
Number of Copies
Staff with TIERS access can print a copy, if an individual requests one. Staff may mail it or give it directly to the individual.
