Texas Health and Human Services (HHS) just announced that the effective date for the therapy rate and policy changes will now be delayed until September 1, 2017. This is to align with the expected September 1, 2017 therapy rate changes resulting from the partial rate restoration directed by the 85th Legislature.

The Texas Association for Home Care & Hospice (TAHC&H) met with HHS this morning and learned the following concerning the upcoming therapy rate and policy changes.

Therapy Rates
  • There will be a rate hearing in sometime in July for the new therapy rates that incorporate the partial rate restoration of SB1.
  • TAHC&H was informed that HHS Executive Commissioner Charles Smith has to approve the new rates before a date can be set for the hearing.
