TMHP to host March conference calls on PCCM

The Texas Medicaid and Healthcare Partnership has scheduled three conference calls to address questions about the expansion of Primary Care Case Management. The calls will take place from noon to 1 p.m. on
March 1, March 8 and March 15.

Since last fall’s expansion of the PCCM Medicaid delivery system to 197 of Texas’ rural and border counties, confusion about the program has mounted among providers.

To participate in an upcoming conference call, contact TMHP with your name, telephone number and nine-digit Texas Provider Identification number. Slots for the call vary between 50 and 75 participants and will be filled
on a first-come, first-served basis. Additional questions can be directed to TMHP at (800) 925-9126.
