Summary
Texas Medicaid has launched a new Provider Enrollment Assistant Tool (PEAT) that helps providers with enrollment questions and scheduling walk-through sessions with Provider Relations representatives. The tool no longer requires an NPI for general enrollment questions, but still requires an NPI to schedule walk-through sessions.
Action Required
Immediately: Billing and credentialing staff should bookmark the PEAT tool on TMHP's Provider Enrollment web page for enrollment assistance. Use PEAT for enrollment questions without needing an NPI, or schedule walk-through sessions (NPI required) for one-on-one support with enrollment issues.
